Abstract
Chemotherapy is not a preffered treatment option for metastatic melanoma, but is used in the treatment of melanoma which do not respond to targeted therapy. This disertation studies, in a panel of four human melanoma cell lines, the effect of integrin subunits α (α3, α4 or αv) knockdown on the modulation of sensitivity to chemoterapy drugs (cisplatin, paclitaxel or vincristine) and motility. In melanoma cell line RPMI-7951, in which integrin αv knockdown increases sensitivity to cisplatin, paclitaxel or vincristine, the composition of integrin αv adhesion complexes (IAC), i.e. adhesome, was analysed. Results of this work contribute to the understanding of integrin signaling pathways in melanoma and to the development of the combinational therapy for melanoma.
