Outline of Final Research Achievements |
In the present study, we investigated the possibility about auxiliary diagnosis and targeted therapy of squamous cell carcinomas in head and neck cancer by tight junction related molecule JAM-A. We found high expression of JAM-A at the protein and mRNA levels in head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSCC) tissue. Soluble JAM-A in serum of HNSCC patients was high level compared to the normal. Overexpression of JAM-A in HNSCC cell line Detroit562 was in part regulated via p63/GATA-3. We used inhibitors of histone deacetylase (HDAC). By using HNSCC cell line Detroit562, treatment with a panHDAC inhibitor tricostatin A (TSA) or specific inhibitors of HDAC1 and HDAC6 prevented the invasion, migration and proliferation of cancer cells in vitro. Furthermore, they also inhibited expression of p63 and JAM-A in Detroit562 cells. Taken together, inhibitors of HDAC are available in possible about auxiliary diagnosis and molecular targeted therapy for HNSCC via p63/JAM-A.
