| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
We have reported that PPARgamma is highly expressed in oral squamous cell carcinoma and regulate the pathway of FABP4. In this study, we found FABP4 is ectopically expressed on Squamous cell carcinoma. Knockdown of FABP4 by siRNA in cultured cell lines of Squamous cell carcinoma dramatically suppressed the cell growth. These results imply a potentially important and novel role for the inhibition of FABP4 function in the treatment of squamous cell carcinoma and the preventation of tumor invasion and metastasis.
