Distinct cellular effects mediated by endothelial protein C receptor (EPCR) in different cancer settings.

Cancer Cell Line/Xenograft Mechanism Cellular Effects
Colorectal cancer [41] ERK/AKT-dependent signaling Inhibition of migration
A375 melanoma cells
B16F10 melanoma cells [11,48]
ERK1/2—dependent signaling Reduction of metastatic foci by inhibition of transendothelial migration
Malignant Pleural Mesothelioma [44] ERK/AKT-dependent signaling;
BAX, BCL2 factors
Inhibition of proliferation and migration Promotion of apoptosis
MGC803 gastric cancer cells [42] ERK1/2—dependent signaling Increased proliferation and migration
Breast cancer cells line [43,45,49,52] SPOCK1/testican 1-mediated signaling
MAPK-signaling
Increased expression of integrins, proliferation, 3D tumor growth and cells survival
Angiogenesis
Lung adenocarcinoma [50] ERK/AKT-dependent signaling Inhibition of apoptosis
