Research Abstract |
To elucidate the carcinogenesis process, we newly established human tongue keratinocytes (HTK) cell lines derived from tongue mucosa immortalized by infection with retroviral vectors expression HPV16 E6/E7. Furthermore, treatment of HPV16 E6/E7 with NNK and EtOH in vitro, and HTK1-16E6E7-NNK + EtOH was established. Then we examined a change of the cell biology in both cells and identified the responsibility gene in the carcinogenesis in oral squamous cell carcinoma.
