The tumor necrosis factor-related apoptosis-inducing ligand (TRAIL) has been considered to be a promising anti-tumor agent since the discovery of TRAIL-mediated apoptosis specifically on cancer cells. However， TRAIL resistance of tumor cells and patients remains to be an insurmountable obstacle for its clinical application. Here， we expressed TRAIL-related recombinant protein RGD-TRAIL， TRAIL-NGR， and RGD-TRAIL-NGR by fusing tumor targeting peptides RGD and (or) NGR at the N-terminus and C-terminus， respectively， to not only induce apoptosis of cancer cells but also inhibit metastasis. The fusion proteins possessed potent cytotoxicity with approximative IC50 in H460 and A549 cells， while TRAIL-NGR and RGD-TRAIL-NGR appeared to be more effective in HT1080 and PANC-1 cells which were relatively insensitive to TRAIL. A low concentration of fusion proteins， especially RGD-TRAIL-NGR， could inhibit migration of A549 and HT1080 cells in vitro and lung metastasis in HT1080 experimental model in vivo， indicating that the recombinant protein maintained the function of both TRAIL and targeting peptide RGD and NGR， which improved the sensitivity of tumor cells to TRAIL.
