TNF-α as a key player in Melanoma cell aggressiveness

ABSTRACT: Purpose. Aggressiveness is a crucial issue related to cutaneous melanoma malignancy and its high metastatic potential. Aim of this work is to identify new pathways or molecules controlling melanoma cell aggressiveness. Proliferation, migration and invasion capability under serum stimulation were analyzed in 12 human metastatic melanoma cell lines to identify the most aggressive ones as a model. The most proliferating/invading (defines as the most aggressive) A375 cell line was compared to the less aggressive one, Sk mel 28 by means of different approaches: 1) transcriptomic analysis by ILLUMINA platform; 2) proteomic study through LC-MS/MS analysis; 3) multiplexed assay to measure secretion of cytokines in conditioned media bioinformatic analysis was then carried out. Two groups of cells
