| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
On the basis of hypovasucularity of the salivary pleomorphic adenoma, we had a hypothesis that pleomorphic adenoma cells are able to survive in hypoxic conditions. To understand the hypoxia-dependent manner of energy metabolism in this particular tumor, we analyzed function of MYC, which are the most important factor of metabolic regulation, in cell proliferation and migration in hypoxic-conditioned pleomorphic adenoma cells. In hypoxic condition, SM-AP cells, human pleomorphic adenoma cell systems, showed higher gene expression levels of HIF-1α and MYC in hypoxia. HIF-1α protein was also kept in higher levels and localized more significantly in nuclei. The proliferation and migration of SM-AP cells were reduced under the lack of MYC expression. These results indicated that hypoxic conditions induced pleomorphic adenoma cells to produce MYC, which was maintained by high HIF-1α protein levels.
