Methods and compositions for inhibiting metastasis potential of tumor cells are provided. Metastasis potential of tumor cells may be inhibited by an agent selected from the group consisting of mimetics of monosialosyl-Lea I, monosialosyl-Lea II, disialosyl-Lea, and sialosyl Lex, the agent inhibiting the metastasis potential of the preparation. The present invention also discloses conjugates comprising the agent and poly(ethylene glycol). Methods for inhibiting GMP-140-mediated or ELAM-1-mediated cell aggregation or adhesion are also provided. The aggregation or adhesion at a tumor site can be inhibited by an agent selected from the group consisting of mimetics of monosialosyl-Lea I, monosialosyl-Lea II, disialosyl-Lea, and sialosyl Lex, the agent inhibiting the cell aggregation or adhesion.
本研究提供了抑制肿瘤细胞转移潜能的方法和组合物。肿瘤细胞的转移潜能可由选自单唾液基-Lea I、单唾液基-Lea II、二唾液基-Lea 和 sialosyl Lex 的模拟物组成的组的制剂抑制,该制剂可抑制制剂的转移潜能。本发明还公开了由制剂和聚
乙二醇组成的共轭物。本发明还提供了抑制 GMP-140 介导或 E
LAM-1 介导的细胞聚集或粘附的方法。肿瘤部位的聚集或粘附可由选自单
硅丙
葡聚糖-Lea I、单
硅丙
葡聚糖-Lea II、二
硅丙
葡聚糖-Lea 和
硅丙
葡聚糖-Lex 的模拟物组成的组中的一种制剂抑制,该制剂可抑制细胞聚集或粘附。
