A wide variety of rodent and human tumor cells secrete antigenically related phosphoproteins with molecular weights (Mr) of 7s 58000 (hamster), 62000 (rat, mouse), 67000 (human (Senger, D.R. and Perruzzi, C.A. (1985) Cancer Res. 45, 5818-5823). Expression of these phosphoproteins is transformaiton-related; tumor cells produced at least 10-fold or more of this protein as compared to their normal or untransformed counterparts. N-terminal and internal sequences derived from the rat tumor-secreted phosphoprotein indicate that it is identical to rat osteopontin, a bone protein with an Arg-Gly-Asp cell-binding sequence (Oldberg, A., Frazen, A. and Heingegard, D. (1986) Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. USA 83, 8819-8823). Antibody raised to the Mr 62000 rat tumor-secreted phosphoprotein was found to bind Mr 75000 and Mr 35000 components of human milk, inicating that milk contains antigencially related proteins. The Mr 75000 protein, which is present in human milk at concentrations ranging from 3 to 10 .mu.g/ml, has been purified to homogeneity. The Mr35000 component is apparently derived from the Mr 75000 protein byproteolytic cleavage, and this cleavage also occurs in vitro in the presence of thrombin. N-terminal and internal amino acid sequences were derived from Mr 75000 milk protein and found to be similar (12/21 residues) to N-terminal and internal sequences derived from the rat tumor-secreted phosphoprotein and osteopontin. Moreover, sequence derived from the N-terminus of the human milk protein is identical to that of human bone sialoprotein I (the likely human homolog ofrat osteopontin) (Fisher, L.W., Hawkins, G.R., Tuross, N. and Termine, J.D. (1987) J. Biol. Chem. 262. 9702-9708).
