Proton pumps, angiogenesis, and metastatic breast cancer

We have previously shown the relationship between metastatic potential and plasmalemmal V-H+-ATPase (pmV-ATPase) expression in tumor cells. This led us to hypothesize that pmV-ATPase activity is involved in invasion. Angiogenesis involves invasion of adjacent tissues by microvascular endothelial cells, thus we hypothesized that pmV-ATPases contribute to pHin regulation and invasion in microvascular endothelial cells.
