| Research Abstract |
In this study, we examined the export and stabilization of ARE-mRNA in oral cancer cells, which is caused by HPV. ARE-mRNA such as c-fos was stabilized in cells mediated by HPV oncogene products E6 and E7. The stabilization of ARE-mRNA in HPV positive cancer cells was down-regulated by HuR knockdown. These findings suggest that ARE-mRNA has some effect on the oncogenesis of cancer cells mediated by HPV.
