Description

AC_774를 포함하는 흑색종 예방 또는 치료용 조성물Composition for preventing or treating melanoma containing AC_774
본 발명은 AC_774를 포함하는 흑색종 예방 또는 치료용 조성물에 관한 것이다.The present invention relates to a composition for preventing or treating melanoma containing AC_774.
암을 재발 없이 극복한 사람들의 경험과 연구 결과들로부터 암을 관해하는 표적으로 신경(Neuro), 염증(Inflammation), 저산소(Hypoxia)를 도출할 수 있으며, 이 세가지(NIH) 요인을 제어할 수 있는 물질을 도출하여 병용투여법 또는 복합제로 개발하므로 단독 또는 면역관련 의약품과의 병용투여를 통해 암을 관해하고자 하는 많은 연구가 진행중이다. From the experiences and research results of people who have overcome cancer without recurrence, it is possible to derive Neuro, Inflammation, and Hypoxia as targets for remission of cancer, and these three (NIH) factors can be controlled. Many studies are underway to cure cancer through single or combined administration with immune-related medicines.
암 중 흑색종은 멜라닌 색소를 생산하는 멜라닌 세포로부터 유래된 암종으로, 신경능세포(neural crest cell)에서 유래된 멜라닌 세포는 피부와 모낭뿐만 아니라 신체의 다양한 조직에 퍼져 있어 흑색종 역시 대부분의 경우 피부에서 발생하지만, 안구, 점막, 중추신경계 등에서도 발견될 수 있다. Among cancers, melanoma is a carcinoma derived from melanocytes that produce melanin pigment. Melanocytes derived from neural crest cells spread to various tissues of the body as well as skin and hair follicles, so melanoma is also common in most cases. Although it occurs in the skin, it can also be found in the eyes, mucous membranes, and central nervous system.
이러한 흑색종은 피부암 사례의 2% 미만이지만 피부암 사망의 대부분을 차지하며, 조기 발견과 치료가 이루어지지 않을 경우 전이로 이어질 수 있다. 또한, 전이된 후에는 치료하기가 훨씬 더 어려워진다. 전이가 어디로 되었는지, 얼마나 되었는지에 따라 치료는 화학요법, 수술, 유전자요법, 면역요법, 방사선요법 및 이의 조합을 포함하여 할 수 있다. 최근 면역기전에 근거하여 개발한 항암제를 통하여 괄목할만한 발전을 이루었으나, 아직은 치료율이 저조하여 새로운 치료제 연구가 지속적으로 요구되고 있는 실정이다.Although these melanomas account for less than 2% of skin cancer cases, they account for the majority of skin cancer deaths and can lead to metastasis if not detected and treated early. Also, once it has metastasized, it becomes much more difficult to treat. Depending on where the metastases have been and how old, treatment may include chemotherapy, surgery, gene therapy, immunotherapy, radiation therapy, and combinations thereof. Recently, remarkable progress has been made through anticancer drugs developed based on immune mechanisms, but the treatment rate is still low, so research on new treatments is continuously required.

실험예 1-3: AC_774에 대한 세포 생존 실험 및 세포 독성 실험 Experimental Example 1-3: Cell survival test and cytotoxicity test for AC_774
세포 생존성은 MTT 환원 방법에 의하여 평가하였다. 세포는 MTT로 4시간동안 염색한 뒤, 침전된 포르마잔을 DMSO에서 용해시켰다. 그 후, 분광기를 이용하여 630nm에서 배경차분(background subtraction)하고, 570nm에서 광학밀도(opical density)를 측정하였다. AC_774의 효과는 DMSO를 처리한 경우의 세포생존율에 대한 AC_774를 처리한 경우의 세포 생존율의 비율로 계산하였다. DMSO 용매와 여러 농도의 AC_774는 2일동안 처리하여 세포 생존율을 측정하였고, 정상인의 멜라닌 세포에서 결과와 흑색종 세포주에서의 결과를 비교하였다. Cell viability was assessed by the MTT reduction method. After staining the cells with MTT for 4 hours, the precipitated formazan was dissolved in DMSO. Then, background subtraction was performed at 630 nm using a spectrometer, and optical density was measured at 570 nm. The effect of AC_774 was calculated as the ratio of cell viability when treated with AC_774 to cell viability when treated with DMSO. DMSO solvent and various concentrations of AC_774 were treated for 2 days to measure cell viability, and the results in normal melanocytes and melanoma cell lines were compared.
세포 독성은 전산탈수소효소(lactate dehydrogenase, LDH) 방출법으로 평가되었다. 세포독성검출키트(Roche, Penzberg, Germany)를 사용하여 배양 배지에서 LDH 활성을 측정하였다. 실험 배양액의 상층부에서 LDH 방출은 490nm에서 광학 밀도를 측정한 다음 620nm에서 광학 밀도를 빼서 측정하였다. 세포독성에 대한 화학 물질의 영향은 적절한 용매에 대한 각 화학물질의 LDH 방출 비율로 계산하였다. Cytotoxicity was evaluated by lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) release method. LDH activity was measured in the culture medium using a cytotoxicity detection kit (Roche, Penzberg, Germany). LDH release in the supernatant of the experimental culture was determined by measuring the optical density at 490 nm and then subtracting the optical density at 620 nm. The effect of chemicals on cytotoxicity was calculated as the ratio of LDH release of each chemical to an appropriate solvent.

실시예 1: AC_774 처리에 따른 정상 멜라닌 세포와 흑색종 세포의 HLF-1α 발현억제, 세포 생존율, 세포독성 비교Example 1: Comparison of HLF-1α expression inhibition, cell viability, and cytotoxicity in normal melanocytes and melanoma cells according to AC_774 treatment
3명의 정상인으로부터 배양한 멜라닌세포 (MC) 및 흑색종 세포주 B16F10 세포에 여러 농도의 AC_774를 2일간 처리하였을 때 세포 생존율, 세포독성 및 HLF-1α 발현억제 여부를 확인하였다.When melanocytes (MC) and melanoma cell line B16F10 cells cultured from three normal individuals were treated with AC_774 at various concentrations for 2 days, cell viability, cytotoxicity, and inhibition of HLF-1α expression were examined.
도 1에서 보이는 바와 같이, 세포 생존율과 세포독성을 비교한 결과, 정상 멜라닌 세포의 경우, 도 1에서 보이는 바와 같이, 6μM 까지는 70% 생존율을 보이는반면, 7μM 농도에서 생존율은 20% 정도로 낮아지는 것을 확인하였다. 세포독성도 6μM까지는 낮지만, 7μM부터는 현저히 증가하는 것을 확인하였으며, 멜라닌세포 독성을 나타내는 S100B 세포내외 농도에서도 7μM에서 유의한 증가를 확인하였다.As shown in Figure 1, as a result of comparing cell viability and cytotoxicity, in the case of normal melanocytes, as shown in Figure 1, while showing a 70% survival rate up to 6μM, the survival rate at a concentration of 7μM is as low as 20% Confirmed. Although the cytotoxicity is low up to 6 μM, it was confirmed that it significantly increased from 7 μM, and a significant increase was confirmed at 7 μM in the S100B intracellular and extracellular concentrations indicating melanocyte toxicity.
도 2에서 보이는 바와 같이, 흑색종 세포주 B16F10의 경우, 5μM 까지는 70% 생존율을 보이는 반면, 7μM부터 생존율의 유의한 감소가 있었다. 또한 저산소 환경하에서는 1.25μM까지는 생존율의 감소 폭이 적었지만 2.5μM부터 생존율의 유의한 감소가 있었다. 세포독성도 2.5μM부터 유의하게 증가하였으며, 저산소 환경하에서는 1.25μM부터 유의하게 증가함을 확인하였다.As shown in FIG. 2 , in the case of the melanoma cell line B16F10, the survival rate was 70% up to 5 μM, whereas the survival rate was significantly decreased from 7 μM. In addition, in a hypoxic environment, the decrease in survival rate was small until 1.25 μM, but there was a significant decrease in survival rate from 2.5 μM. Cytotoxicity was also significantly increased from 2.5 μM, and it was confirmed that it significantly increased from 1.25 μM in a hypoxic environment.
따라서, 저산소 환경하에서 AC_774는 저산소 환경이 아닌 경우에 비해 더 낮은 농도에서 흑색종에 대한 독성을 나타냄을 확인하였다.Therefore, it was confirmed that AC_774 exhibits toxicity against melanoma under a hypoxic environment at a lower concentration than in a non-hypoxic environment.
또한, HIF-1α의 발현억제 여부와 관련하여, 도 2에서 보이는 바와 같이, 정상 멜라닌 세포 대비 흑색종 세포주에서의 HIF-1α가 발현이 증가함을 확인하였다. 또한 CoCl2를 첨가하여 저산소 환경을 구축하여 HIF-1α가 발현한 정도를 확인한 결과, 흑색종세포는 정상 멜라닌 세포와 비교하여 HIF-1α가 발현이 유의하게 증가하여 저산소 상태에서 생존할 수 있는 체계를 가지고 있음을 확인할 수 있었다. 이에 AC_774를 투여하였고 그로인해 HIF-1α가 발현을 유의하게 감소시켜, AC_774가 HIF-1α발현을 억제함을 확인하였다.In addition, with regard to whether HIF-1α expression was suppressed, as shown in FIG. 2 , it was confirmed that HIF-1α expression increased in melanoma cell lines compared to normal melanocytes. In addition, as a result of confirming the degree of HIF-1α expression by establishing a hypoxic environment by adding CoCl 2 , the expression of HIF-1α significantly increased in melanoma cells compared to normal melanocytes, indicating that the system can survive in hypoxic conditions. I was able to confirm that I have Accordingly, AC_774 was administered, and as a result, the expression of HIF-1α was significantly reduced, confirming that AC_774 suppresses HIF-1α expression.
따라서 상기 결과를 종합하면, AC_774는 정상인 멜라닌세포에는 독성을 나타내지 않는 농도에서 B16F10 흑색종 세포주에서는 독성을 유발하였음을, 흑색종 세포주에서 HIF-1α의 발현을 억제하였음을 확인하였다. Therefore, taking the above results together, it was confirmed that AC_774 induced toxicity in the B16F10 melanoma cell line and inhibited the expression of HIF-1α in the melanoma cell line at a concentration that was not toxic to normal melanocytes.

실시예 2-1: Nude mouse에 흑색종을 유발하는 농도 결정Example 2-1: Determination of concentration inducing melanoma in nude mice
200,000개의 세포수가 피하주사에서도 3주후에는 3마리 중 2마리에서 각각 1.2 cm3와 1.7 cm3로 안락사 시켜야 할 정도의 크기인 1~1.5cm3를 초과하였다. AC_774는 2주간 경구투여 하여야 하므로 투여하지 않은 군을 감안할 때 흑색종 세포 투입부터 연구 종료까지 기간은 3주를 넘길 수 없다는 것을 확인하였다. 따라서 200,000개의 세포수를 피하주사 하여 흑색종을 유발하고 유발 1주 후부터 AC_774를 처리하여 효과를 관찰하였다.Even with subcutaneous injection, 200,000 cells were 1.2 cm 3 and 1.7 cm 3 respectively in 2 out of 3 mice after 3 weeks, exceeding the size of 1-1.5 cm 3 that should be euthanized. Since AC_774 must be administered orally for 2 weeks, it was confirmed that the period from the injection of melanoma cells to the end of the study could not exceed 3 weeks, considering the non-administered group. Therefore, melanoma was induced by subcutaneous injection of 200,000 cells, and the effect was observed by treating AC_774 from 1 week after induction.
실시예 2-2: AC_774의 흑색종 크기 감소 효과 확인Example 2-2: Confirmation of melanoma size reduction effect of AC_774
생검한 종양의 크기는 1/2LW2 (L: 종양 길이, W: 종양 폭) 공식에 넣어 계산하였다. 도 3에서 보이는 바와 같이, AC_774를 저농도(10mg/kg)로 처리한 군에서는 1마리가 일찍 사망하여 3마리만 연구를 완료하였고, 나머지 군은 4마리 모두 연구를 완료하였다. 도 4에서 보이는 바와 같이, 각 군당 종양크기가 차이가 나는 1마리씩을 제외하고 종양크기를 측정하였으며, 중농도(30mg/kg) 및 고농도(60mg/kg) 처리군에서 치료하지 않은 군 대비 현저히 감소하는 것을 확인하였다. The size of the biopsied tumor was calculated using the formula 1/2LW 2 (L: tumor length, W: tumor width). As shown in FIG. 3, in the group treated with AC_774 at a low concentration (10 mg/kg), 1 animal died early and only 3 animals completed the study, and all 4 animals in the other group completed the study. As shown in Figure 4, the tumor size was measured except for one animal with a difference in tumor size for each group, and the medium concentration (30mg / kg) and high concentration (60mg / kg) treatment group significantly decreased compared to the untreated group. confirmed that.

생검한 모든 종양을 파라핀 블록으로 만들어 H&E(hematyoxylin & erosin) 염색 외에 TUNEL 염색에 양성을 나타내는 세포인 사멸 세포의 비율을 계산하였다. 안전성에 대하여는 종양 인접한 조직에 TUNEL 양성세포 및 염증세포 침윤 등에 대하여 조사하였다. All biopsied tumors were made into paraffin blocks, and the percentage of apoptotic cells, which are cells showing positive for TUNEL staining in addition to H&E (hematyoxylin & erosin) staining, was calculated. For safety, TUNEL-positive cells and inflammatory cell infiltration were investigated in tissues adjacent to the tumor.
도 5 내지 도 7에서 보이는 바와 같이, AC_774를 투여하지 않은 군과 저농도 처리 군에서는 TUNEL 양성 세포 비율이 차이가 나지 않았으며, 중간농도를 처리한 군도 종양의 일부 부위에서 TUNEL 양성세포의 증가를 보였으나 차이가 현저하지 않았다. 그러나 도 8에서 보이는 바와 같이, 고농도 처리군에서는 TUNEL 양성 세포 비율이 증가하는 것을 확인하였다. 도 9에서 보이는 바와 같이, 세포 사멸 비율이 고농도 처리군에서 현저하였으며, 통계적 유의성은 나타나지 않았으나, 실험동물 수를 늘리면 유의성이 관찰될 것으로 생각된다. 또한, 도 11에서 보이는 바와 같이, 저산소 환경하에 cyclin-D의 발현이 증가하지만 AC_774 처리시 저산소 조건 유무에 관계없이 감소하고 저산소 상태에서 뚜렷하게 감소함을 확인하였으며, 활성-caspase3의 발현이 증가함을 확인하여 세포사멸을 증가시킴을 알 수 있었다. As shown in FIGS. 5 to 7, there was no difference in the ratio of TUNEL-positive cells in the group not administered with AC_774 and the group treated with low concentration, and the group treated with medium concentration also showed an increase in TUNEL-positive cells in some parts of the tumor. I didn't notice a difference. However, as shown in FIG. 8 , it was confirmed that the ratio of TUNEL-positive cells increased in the high concentration treatment group. As shown in Figure 9, the cell death rate was remarkable in the high concentration treatment group, and statistical significance was not shown, but it is thought that significance will be observed when the number of experimental animals is increased. In addition, as shown in FIG. 11, although the expression of cyclin-D increases under hypoxic conditions, it was confirmed that it decreased regardless of the presence or absence of hypoxic conditions during AC_774 treatment, and it was clearly decreased under hypoxic conditions, and the expression of active-caspase3 increased. It was confirmed that it increased apoptosis.
도 5 내지 도 9 및 도 11의 결과를 종합해보면, 종양에 인접한 조직에는 AC_774 농도에 관계없이 TUNEL 양성세포와 염증세포의 침윤이 관찰되지 않았으며, AC_774는 농도에 비례하여 흑색종의 크기를 감소시킨다는 것을 확인하였다. Summarizing the results of FIGS. 5 to 9 and 11, TUNEL-positive cells and inflammatory cell infiltration were not observed in tissues adjacent to the tumor regardless of the concentration of AC_774, and AC_774 reduced the size of melanoma in proportion to the concentration confirmed that it does.
실시예 2-4: AC_774의 흑색종 내 CD8 양성 세포독성 T 세포 침윤 정도 확인Example 2-4: Determination of CD8-positive cytotoxic T cell infiltration in melanoma of AC_774
생검한 모든 종양을 파라핀 블록을 만들어 CD8 항체로 조직면역형광검사를 시행하였고, 전체 종양 대비 CD8 양성을 나타내는 T세포의 염색강도를 측정하여 비교하였다. 도 10A에서 보이는 바와 같이, AC_774를 투여하지 않은 군에서는 종양의 크기가 너무 커서 참고막대 길이가 다른 군보다 작을 정도로 크기를 줄였으나 종양의 일부만 현미경하에서 관찰이 가능하였다. 또한, 30mg/kg 투여군도 60mg/kg 투여군 대비 종양 크기가 크다는 것을 확인하였다. All biopsied tumors were made into paraffin blocks, and tissue immunofluorescence was performed with CD8 antibody, and the staining intensity of CD8-positive T cells compared to all tumors was measured and compared. As shown in FIG. 10A, the size of the tumor in the group not administered with AC_774 was so large that the length of the reference bar was reduced to a smaller extent than that of the other groups, but only a portion of the tumor could be observed under a microscope. In addition, it was confirmed that the tumor size of the 30mg/kg administration group was larger than that of the 60mg/kg administration group.
도 10에서 보이는 바와 같이, CD8 양성 세포독성 T세포는 종양 내에서 주로 관찰되었고 형광염색의 강도는 그래프에서와 같이 AC_774 투여군에서 투여하지 않은 군 대비 유의하게 증가하였으며 중간농도 투여군보다 고농도 투여군에서 높게 나타나므로 농도에 의존적인 성향을 나타내었다. 또한, 고농도 투여군의 경우 T세포가 군집한 종양부위에는 세포가 소실되어 생긴 것 같은 공간들도 관찰되었다.As shown in FIG. 10, CD8-positive cytotoxic T cells were mainly observed in the tumor, and the intensity of fluorescence staining was significantly increased in the AC_774-administered group compared to the non-administered group as shown in the graph, and was higher in the high-concentration-administered group than in the medium-concentration-administered group. Therefore, it showed a concentration-dependent tendency. In addition, in the case of the high concentration administration group, spaces that appeared to be caused by cell loss were observed in the tumor area where T cells were clustered.
실시예 3: AC_774의 hypoxia 노출 유무에 따른 흑색종 세포에 작용 확인Example 3: Confirmation of action of AC_774 on melanoma cells with and without hypoxia exposure
저산소 환경에 적응하기 위한 세포나 조직의 일차적인 반응은 산소에 민감한 전사활성인자인 HIF-1 (hypoxia-inducible factor-1)에 의하여 구성요소의 하나인 HIF-1α는 산소에 의해 조절된다. 또한, 흑색종 세포의 경우 다른 암세포들과 유사하게 저산소 환경에서 HIF-1α의 발현이 증가하는데 저산소에 노출된 세포에 HIF-1α의 축적을 억제하면 저산소 환경에서 과발현하는 PDL1(programmed cell death ligand-1)이라는 면역억제분자의 전사가 억제되어 세포독성 T세포에 의한 면역반응으로부터의 도피가 감소함이 밝혀졌다. 이들 결과는 본 연구의 AC_774 투여군에서 종양크기감소, 종양세포사멸 및 종양 내 세포독성 T세포수 등의 결과와 유사한 부분이 있다. 따라서 B16F10 흑색종 세포에 산화스트레스를 유발하고 AC_774의 HIF-1α의 발현에 대한 효과를 확인하였다. 또한, 도 1에서 확인한 바와 같이, AC_774가 정상 멜라닌세포보다 B16F10 흑색종 세포에서 세포독성이 증가하였으므로 흑색종 세포와 정상 멜라닌 세포에서 HIF-1α 발현 정도도 비교하였다. The primary response of cells or tissues to adapt to a hypoxic environment is oxygen-sensitive transcriptional activator HIF-1 (hypoxia-inducible factor-1), one of the components of which is regulated by oxygen. In addition, in the case of melanoma cells, the expression of HIF-1α increases in a hypoxic environment, similar to other cancer cells. When the accumulation of HIF-1α is suppressed in cells exposed to hypoxia, PDL1 (programmed cell death ligand- It was found that the transcription of the immunosuppressive molecule called 1) was suppressed, thereby reducing the escape from the immune response by cytotoxic T cells. These results are similar to the results of tumor size reduction, tumor cell death, and intratumoral cytotoxic T cell count in the AC_774 administration group in this study. Therefore, oxidative stress was induced in B16F10 melanoma cells, and the effect of AC_774 on HIF-1α expression was confirmed. In addition, as confirmed in FIG. 1, since AC_774 showed increased cytotoxicity in B16F10 melanoma cells than in normal melanocytes, the degree of HIF-1α expression in melanoma cells and normal melanocytes was also compared.
도 1A에서 보이는 바와 같이, Hs936T, MNT1 및 B16F10 흑색종 세포들에서 정상 멜라닌세포 대비 HIF-1α 발현이 높다는 것을 확인하였으며, 이는 흑색종을 포함한 암세포에서 HIF-1α가 높은 발현을 보인다는 보고와 일치하였다. As shown in Figure 1A, it was confirmed that HIF-1α expression was higher in Hs936T, MNT1 and B16F10 melanoma cells compared to normal melanocytes, which is consistent with the report that HIF-1α is expressed high in cancer cells including melanoma. did
또한, 도 11에서 보이는 바와 같이, B16F10 흑색종 세포에 CoCl2 (Cobalt chloride) 처리하여 산화스트레스를 유발하였다. AC_774를 처리하지 않은 경우, B16F10 흑색종세포는 HIF-1α 발현이 유의하게 증가하여 저산소 환경에서 적응할 수 있음을 확인하였다. 그러나 AC_774를 투여하면 HIF-1α 발현 증가가 AC_774 농도에 의존적으로 억제되는 것을 확인하였다. In addition, as shown in FIG. 11 , oxidative stress was induced by CoCl 2 (Cobalt chloride) treatment to B16F10 melanoma cells. When AC_774 was not treated, B16F10 melanoma cells showed a significant increase in HIF-1α expression, confirming that they could adapt to a hypoxic environment. However, when AC_774 was administered, it was confirmed that the increase in HIF-1α expression was suppressed dependently on the concentration of AC_774.
실시예 4: AC_774 처리에 의한 흑색종 세포주의 전이 억제 효과 확인Example 4: Confirmation of metastasis inhibitory effect of melanoma cell lines by AC_774 treatment
암 전이 여부를 확인하기 위해서는 EMT(epithelial-mesenchymal transition)가 전이의 주요 기전 중 하나이다. cytokeratin, E cadherin 및 occludin과 같은 상피 표지자는 하향 조절되는 반면, N-cadherin, vimentin 및 fibronectin과 같은 중간엽 표지자는 EMT에서 상향 조절된다.In order to determine whether cancer has metastasized, epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT) is one of the main mechanisms of metastasis. Epithelial markers such as cytokeratin, E cadherin and occludin are downregulated, whereas mesenchymal markers such as N-cadherin, vimentin and fibronectin are upregulated in EMT.
AC_774에 의해 흑색종 세포주의 전이 억제 효과가 있는지 확인하기 위해서 EMT에 관여하는 인자인 E-cadherin, N-cadherin 및 SNAIL 단백질의 발현변화를 배양세포 및 동물종양에서 조사하였다.In order to confirm whether AC_774 has an inhibitory effect on melanoma cell line metastasis, changes in the expression of E-cadherin, N-cadherin, and SNAIL proteins, which are factors involved in EMT, were investigated in cultured cells and animal tumors.
도 12에서 보이는 바와 같이, CoCl2 처리하에 N-cadherin 및 SNAIL의 발현이 증가되고, E-cadherin 발현은 감소하여 저산소증에 의한 EMT 자극을 확인하였다. AC_774 처리하에 E-cadherin발현 수준이 다시 회복하고, N-cadherin 및 SNAIL의 발현이 감소함을 확인하였다. As shown in FIG. 12 , under CoCl 2 treatment, the expression of N-cadherin and SNAIL increased, and the expression of E-cadherin decreased, confirming EMT stimulation by hypoxia. It was confirmed that E-cadherin expression level recovered again under AC_774 treatment, and N-cadherin and SNAIL expression decreased.
따라서, 저산소증은 N-cadherin 및 SNAIL을 상향조절하고, E-cadherin는 하향조절하여 흑색종에서 EMT를 촉진함을 확인할 수 있었다. 이에 AC_774는 N-cadherin 및 SNAIL을 하향조절시키고, E-cadherin은 상향조절하여 흑색종의 성장 및 전이를 억제할 수 있음을 확인하였다,Therefore, it was confirmed that hypoxia promoted EMT in melanoma by upregulating N-cadherin and SNAIL, and downregulating E-cadherin. Accordingly, it was confirmed that AC_774 can down-regulate N-cadherin and SNAIL, and up-regulate E-cadherin to suppress melanoma growth and metastasis.
