Abstract

We have investigated the in vitro proaggregatory and procoagulant properties of three murine tumor cell lines having different metastatic potentials. The characterization was carried out with appropriate procoagulant inhibitors and plasma deficient in factors VII and X. The proaggregatory properties of M2, M3 and MM3 cell lines increased according to their metastatic potentials. Their procoagulant activity were dependent on factor X. The prothrombotic abilities exhibited by neoplastic cells (NC), acting synergistically, might play a role in cancer dissemination.
