Research Abstract |
Our previous studies revealed that EGF enhanced the random motility of oral squamous cell carcinoma cell lines in a dose-dependent fashion and exposure to EGF let to an increased production of urokinase type plasminogen activator and matrix metalloproteniase-9 by the same cells. These results strongly suggest the EGF may promote the invasion and metastasis of human oral squamous cell carcinomas. In this project, to reveal the signal pathway concerning the cell motility and inhibiting effects of signal pathway, we established s-1 clone cells from Ca9-22 cell line, which was most sensitive clone against the EGF stimulation and also we established i-1 clone cells, which was most insensitive clone. Further studies were done using s-1 clone cells. When EGF bind to the EGF receptor, tyrosine phosphorelation is firstly occurred and subsequently PKC is activated through the activation of PLCr arising from erbB homodimer and/or activation of PI3-kinase arising from erbB3 heterodimer. Furthermore, erbB homodimer activates the nPKCd through the activation of PLC and also erbB/erbB-3 heterodimer activates aPKCe through the activation of PI3K. These results suggest that inhibition of aPKCe or nPKCd can reduce the invasion and metastasis of human oral cancer cells and that the useful model in the investigations of molecular target medicines is possibly established. Furthermore, as an auspicious candidate of new target molecules, aPKCe and nPKCd were closed up. Especially, these molecles were more specific than EGF receptor, PI3K, and so on, which recently developed molecular target medicines.
