Oral squamous cell carcinoma has a striking tendency to migrate and metastasize. Cyclooxygenase (COX)-2, the inducible isoform of prostaglandin (PG) synthase, has been implicated in tumor metastasis. However, the effects of COX-2 on human oral cancer cells are largely unknown. We found that overexpression of COX-2 or exogenous PGE2 increased migration and intercellular adhesion molecule 1 (ICAM)-1 expression in human oral cancer cells. Using pharmacological inhibitors, activators, and genetic inhibition of EP receptors, we discovered that the EP1 receptor, but not other PGE receptors, is involved in PGE2-mediated cell migration and ICAM-1 expression. PGE2-mediated migration and ICAM-1 up-regulation were attenuated by inhibitors of protein kinase C (PKC)δ, and c-Src. Activation of the PKCδ, c-Src, and AP-1 signaling pathway occurred after PGE2 treatment. PGE2-induced expression of ICAM-1 and migration activity were inhibited by a specific inhibitor, siRNA, and mutants of PKCδ, c-Src, and AP-1. In addition, migration-prone sublines demonstrated that cells with increased migration ability had higher expression of COX-2 and ICAM-1. Taken together, these results indicate that the PGE2 and EP1 interaction enhanced migration of oral cancer cells through an increase in ICAM-1 production. 相似文献

This study was designed to determine the effects of 17beta-estradiol (E2) in overcoming the cardiac over-loading and cardiac fibrosis in rats. E2 (100 ng/kg) or oil was applied in female Sprague-Dawley rats with or without bilateral ovariectomy and with or without coarctation of the abdominal aorta after 4 or 8 days. By post-operative day 4, the heart weight, the left ventricular weight, the latent form of MMP-2 in rat hearts with or without the ovary intact had significantly increased while these changes were reversed after E2 treatment. Although animals with the ovaries intact overcame the hypertrophic effects and the consumption of MMP-2, these effects were not restored in ovariectomized animals in which more fibrosis could be found by day 8. Among the IGF-I signaling, the levels of IGF-I, the activities of PI3K-Akt for cardiomyocyte survival, and MEK-ERKs for non-cardiomyocyte proliferation pathways had significantly increased by day 4. These increasing trends were enhanced by E2 treatment. However, down-regulation was only observed on day 8 in ovariectomized animals. Similarly, elevated expressions of the steady-state mRNA of IGF-I, IGF-IR, and Cox vb were observed on day 4 in animals with the ovaries intact and these expressions were enhanced by E2 treatment. In contrast, down-regulation on day 8 in ovariectomized animals was not enhanced by E2. The calcineurin/NFAT-3 pathway was suppressed on day 4 but was elevated on day 8 in ovariectomized animals. These findings indicate that signaling pathways may be plausible mechanisms for the cardiac protective effects of E2 administration. 相似文献
