The chemokine stroma-derived factor (SDF-1/CXCL12) plays multiple roles in tumor pathogenesis. It has been demonstrated that CXCL12 promotes tumor growth and malignancy, enhances tumor angiogenesis, participates in tumor metastasis, and contributes to immunosuppressive networks within the tumor microenvironment. Therefore, it stands to reason that the CXCL12/CXCR4 pathway is an important target for the development of novel anti-cancer therapies. In this review, we consider the pathological…

It is demonstrated that SDF-1alpha induces a dose-dependent proliferation in OC cells, by the specific interaction with CXCR4 and a biphasic activation of ERK1/2 and Akt kinases, which suggest a possible important "cross-talk" between S DF-1/CX CR4 and EGFR intracellular pathways that may link signals of cell proliferation in ovarian cancer.

Positive correlations were established between SDF‐1 levels and tumor metastasis and neutralization of CXCR4 limited the number and the growth of intraosseous metastasis in vivo, providing critical support that SDF-1/CXCR 4 plays a role in skeletal metastasis.

The stimulatory effect of SDF-1 on cancer migration and the inhibitory effect of TN14003 were mediated via the alteration in phosphorylation of mitogen-activated protein kinases, which means that the small molecule antagonists against CXCR4 might be an effective anti-metastatic agent for pancreatic cancer.
