Effects of EHD2 interference on migration of esophageal squamous cell carcinoma

چکیده
C-Terminal EH domain-containing protein 2 (EHD2) of the EHD family is associated with plasma membrane. We investigated the expression of EHD2 in human esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (ESCC) and the EHD2 expression to study the therapeutic effect of chemotherapy drugs. Western blot and immunohistochemistry were used to measure the expression of EHD2 protein in ESCC and adjacent normal tissue in 98 patients. EHD2 protein level was reduced in ESCC tissues in comparison with adjacent normal tissues. Under-expression of EHD2 increased the motility property of ESCC cell TE1 in vitro by wound-healing assays and transwell migration assays, and it was concurrent with the decreased expression of epithelial marker E-cadherin. Under-expression of EHD2 in TE1 can cause resistance to cisplatin. Our results suggested that EHD2 low expression is involved in the pathogenesis of ESCC, and it might be a favorable independent poor prognostic parameter for ESCC.

Background: The MET receptor is a critical member of cancer-associated RTKs and plays an important role in different biological activities, including differentiation, migration, and cell proliferation. Methods: In this study, novel MET inhibitors were introduced and applied on esophageal squamous carcinoma cell line KYSE-30, and the level of proliferation and migration, as well as the activated...
متن کاملExpression analysis of CD44 isoforms S and V3, in patients with esophageal squamous cell carcinoma
Objective(s): CD44 is a member of the cell adhesion molecules family. Naturally, CD44S, along with CD44V3 influence the cell motility, migration, and adhesion, while in tumor cells they lead to tumor invasion, progression, and metastasis. The purpose of this research is to evaluate the CD44S and CD44V3 expression in Esophageal Squamous Cell Carcinoma (ESCC) and to reveal their correlations wit...

Analysis of SEPT9 Gene Promoter Methylation Status in Esophageal Squamous Cell Carcinoma
Introduction: The changes in the level of SEPT9 gene promoter methylation can contribute to the formation of esophageal squamous cell carcinoma. The aim of this study was to evaluate the level of changes in the level of SEPT9 gene promoter methylation in the esophageal squamous cell carcinoma. Methods: In the present case-control study, we collected 75 paraffin blocks of esophageal cancer tiss...

We examined 170 formalin-fixed paraffin-embedded samples from esophageal squamous cell carcinoma patients. All subjects live in Mazandaran province, a region with high incidence rate of esophageal cancer and have become known as the “Asian Esophageal Cancer Belt”. Samples were tested for HPV-DNA by MY09/11 and Gp5+/6+ general primers using nested PCR. Of the 170 ESCC samples, 86 (50.6%) were ma...
