Outline of Final Research Achievements

We tested the hypothesis that HBp17/FGFBP-1 expression was regulated by NF-кB by manipulating this particular binding site, and then studied the possibility to inhibit the activation of FGF-2 in OSCC cells by repressing the expression of HBp17/FGFBP-1 using VD3.HBp17/FGFBP-1 mRNA and protein level were significantly down-regulated by VD3.The level of IκBα, which is known as an NFκB regulator was up-regulated. As a result of a luciferase reporter assay, promoter activity of HBp17/FGFBP-1 was 30% suppressed by the VD3 treatment. Although VD3 did not show to have direct effect on FGF-2 expression, it has been revealed by ELISA that the level in the medium conditioned by the cells treated with VD3 significantly decreased. The data from quantitative RT-PCR, western blotting, and ELISA clearly showed that down-regulation of HBp17/FGFBP-1 resulted in inhibition of the FGF-2 release from the extracellular matrix.
