Growth suppression induced by Notch1 activation involves Wnt-beta-catenin down-regulation in human tongue carcinoma cells

BACKGROUND INFORMATION: Involvement of Notch1 signalling in several cancers is well known, but its role in human tongue squamous cell carcinoma, one of the most common carcinomas of the human oral cavity, remains poorly characterized. RESULTS: Our studies demonstrated that constitutively over-expressed active Notch1, via stable transfection of exogenous ICN (intracellular fragment of Notch), resulted in growth suppression of the human tongue cancer cell line Tca8113 in vitro and in vivo, accompanied by G(0)-G(1) cell cycle arrest and apoptosis. Moreover, down-regulation of beta-catenin protein expression was observed in Tca8113 cells stably expressing active Notch1. Activated Notch1 also led to dramatic increase in p21(WAF1/CIP1) and p53 expression with decreases in Skp2 (S-phase kinase-associated protein 2) and Bcl-2 (B-cell lymphocytic-leukaemia proto-oncogene 2) expression, which may participate in the induction of apoptosis and cell cycle arrest. CONCLUSIONS: Since the effects of the Notch1 pathway are cell-type specific and context-dependent in cell types where Notch1 has an anti-proliferative effect, down-regulation of Wnt/beta-catenin signalling may be one of the mechanisms which induces apoptosis and cell cycle arrest.

CCN5 inhibits proliferation and promotes apoptosis of oral squamous cell carcinoma cells

Oral squamous cell carcinoma (OSCC) is a common cancer with poor prognosis and high mortality. The role of CCN5 has attracted a great focus on the regulation of cancer progression. However, the biological function and mechanism of CCN5 in OSCC are still not well elucidated. The current study was designed to determine the effects of CCN5 on OSCC cell proliferation and apoptosis using two OSCC cell lines. Further, LY294002, a PI3K/AKT antagonist, was employed to explore the mechanism underlying the effects of CCN5 in the regulation of OSCC. The results showed that overexpression of CCN5 in TSCCa cells significantly reduced viable cell number, arrested cell cycle, and suppressed cell‐cycle regulators (cyclin D1, cyclin E, and CDK2). CCN5 overexpression increased the apoptotic ratio and Hoechst‐positive cell number, and altered the apoptotic‐related proteins (caspase‐3/9, Bax, and Bcl‐2). However, CCN5 silencing induced opposite effects on cell proliferation and apoptosis in Tca‐8113 cells. In addition, we observed that CCN5 knockdown increased the expression levels of PI3K (p85α and p110α) and phosphorylated AKT at serine 473 (p‐AKT Ser473) in Tca‐8113 cells. Inhibiting PI3K/AKT signaling with LY294002 rescued the apoptotic process in CCN5‐silenced OSCC cells. Finally, xenograft analysis showed that CCN5 represses tumorigenesis of OSCC cells. These findings together suggest that CCN5 functions as a tumor suppressor for OSCC cell development through inactivation of PI3K/AKT signaling pathway, providing a potential candidate for OSCC therapy.     

Identification of carbonic anhydrase 9 as a contributor to pingyangmycin-induced drug resistance in human tongue cancer cells

Drug resistance is the major obstacle to successful cancer treatment. To understand the mechanisms responsible for drug resistance in tongue cancer, Tca8113 cells derived from moderately differentiated human tongue squamous cell carcinoma were exposed to stepwise escalated concentrations of pingyangmycin (PYM) to develop the resistant cell line called Tca8113/PYM, which showed over 18.78-fold increased resistance to PYM as compared with Tca8113 cells, and cross-resistance to cisplatin, pirarubicin, paclitaxel, adriamycin, and mitomycin. We found that the resistance was not associated with multidrug resistance transporter 1 (p170, p-gp), multidrug resistance-associated protein 1 and breast cancer resistance protein overexpression, so we hypothesized that Tca8113/PYM cells must have some other resistance mechanism selected by PYM. To test this hypothesis, the global gene expression profiles between Tca8113 and Tca8113/PYM cells were compared by cDNA microarray. Eighty-nine genes and thirteen expressed sequence tags with differential expression levels between the two cell lines were identified. Some differential expression levels were validated with real-time PCR and western blot. Furthermore, the functional validation showed that both carbonic anhydrase (CA) inhibitor acetazolamide application and CA9 silencing with CA9 antisense oligonucleotides contribute to the medium pH increase of Tca8113/PYM cells and enhanced PYM chemosensitivity. Moreover, both acetazolamide and CA9 antisense oligonucleotides significantly increased PYM-induced caspase 3 activation in Tca8113/PYM cells. Thus, our study suggests that the resistance of Tca8113/PYM cells is probably associated with CA9 and other differential expression molecules, and that CA9 may be an important marker for prediction of PYM responsiveness in tongue cancer chemotherapy.     

HuR stabilizes lnc-Sox5 mRNA to promote tongue carcinogenesis

Long noncoding RNAs (lncRNAs) have been recently regarded as systemic regulators in multiple biological processes including tumorigenesis. In this study, we report an ultra-highly expressed lncRNA, lnc-Sox5, in tongue tumor tissues. The results imply that lnc-Sox5 may play vital role in tongue carcinoma progression. We observed that the growth of Tca8113 cells was suppressed by lnc-Sox5 downregulation. Additionally, lnc-Sox5 knockdown simultaneously increased Tca8113 cell apoptosis, but the cell cycle was arrested. RNA immunoprecipitation suggested that HuR directly bound to and stabilized lnc-Sox5 RNA. Consistently, HuR knockdown reduced the level of lnc-Sox5 in Tca8113 cells. However, overexpression of HuR induced more lnc-Sox5 in Tca8113 cells. Both lnc-Sox5 knockdown and HuR knockdown suppressed Tca8113 cell tumorigenesis in xenograft models. These results suggest that lnc-Sox5, which was stabilized by HuR, could regulate carcinogenesis of tongue cancer and may serve as a predicted target for tongue carcinoma therapies.     

Growth inhibition induced by transforming growth factor-β1 in human oral squamous cell carcinoma

Oral squamous cell carcinoma (OSCC) is a world-wide health problem and its incidence accounts for 1.9–3.5% of all malignant tumors. Transforming growth factor beta/Smads (TGF-β/Smads) signaling pathway plays an important role in oncogenesis, but its function and molecular mechanisms in OSCC remain unclear. Expression of transforming growth factor-β receptor type II (TβRII) and Smad4 was studied by immunohistochemistry in 108 OSCC patients and 10 normal controls. Function and molecular mechanisms of TGF-β/Smads signaling pathway was then investigated in two human tongue squamous carcinoma cell lines with high and low metastasis (Tb and Tca8113) by RT-PCR, Western Blot, immunofluorescence, cell growth curve and flow cytometry (FCM), respectively. TβRII and Smad4 were significantly down-regulated in tumor tissues (with or without lymph node metastasis) compared to normal oral epithelium tissues (P < 0.05). TGF-β1 induced arrest of the cell cycle rather than cell death in Tca8113 and Tb cells, and this influence was mediated by the increasing the expression and changing the location of its downstream components of TGF-β1/Smads signaling pathway. TGF-β1 rapidly increased the expression of p15 and p21 in both Tca8113 and Tb cells. TGF-β1 did not increase p27 expression in Tca8113 cells, but p27 expression was increased in Tb cells. These indicated that TGF-β1 induced G₁ arrest of cell cycle through a different regulating pathway in Tb cells compared with Tca8113 cells. Thus, we conclude that TGF-β/Smads signaling pathway play a important role on cell growth and metastasis potential in OSCC.

Overexpression of BLCAP induces S phase arrest and apoptosis independent of p53 and NF-κB in human tongue carcinoma

Bladder cancer-associated protein gene (BLCAP) is a novel candidate tumor suppressor gene identified from the human bladder carcinoma. Our previous studies have shown that BLCAP overexpression could inhibit cell growth by inducing apoptosis in HeLa cells [Zuo Z, Zhao M, Liu J, Gao G, Wu X: Tumor Biol 27: 221–226, 2006]. Such evidence suggests the alterations in BLCAP may play an important role in tumorigenesis. To further study the biological function of the BLCAP gene, we constructed a recombinant retroviral vector encoding BLCAP cDNA. Overexpressed BLCAP, via stable infection of exogenous BLCAP, resulted in growth inhibition of the human tongue cancer cell line Tca8113 in vitro, accompanied by S phase cell cycle arrest and apoptosis. The growth inhibition was correlated with up-regulation of p21^WAF1/CIP1 expression and down-regulation of Bcl-XL and Bcl-2 expressions. However, p53 expression and NF-κB activity remained unchanged post infection. Furthermore, no changes in p53 phosphorylation at Ser46 and nuclear localization, which are critical to p53 function, were observed in BLCAP-overexpressed cells. Taken together, BLCAP may play a role not only in regulating cell proliferation but also in coordinating apoptosis and cell cycle via a novel way independent of p53 and NF-κB.
