High mobility group box 1 regulates tumor metastasis in cutaneous squamous cell carcinoma via the PI3K/AKT and MAPK signaling pathways

چکیده
The present study examined the mechanisms of high mobility group box 1 (HMGB1)-induced cell migration in human cutaneous squamous cell carcinoma (CSCC) SCC13 cells. Western blotting, a chemotaxis assay and ELISA were performed to analyze HMGB1 level in SCC13 cells and its ability to regulate tumor metastasis. The results demonstrated a significantly higher level of HMGB1 in the SCC13 cell supernatant compared with the human epidermoid carcinoma A431 cell supernatant. Administration of HMGB1 to the SCC13 cells caused cell migration, which occurred in a time- and dose-dependent manner. Moreover, HMGB1 significantly activated the phosphosphoinositide 3-kinase (PI3K)/AKT and mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) signaling pathways by an increased level of phosphorylation in p85PI3K, AKT, p38 and p42/44 MAPK. Taken together, these data suggest that HMGB1 regulates tumor metastasis in CSCC via the PI3K/AKT and MAPK signaling pathways.

Objective(s): Lung cancer is one of the most common malignant tumors, which seriously threatens the health and life of the people. Recently, a novel long non-coding RNA (lncRNA) termed lncFOXO1 was found and investigated in breast cancer. However, the effect of lncFOXO1 on lung cancer is still ambiguous. The current study aimed to uncover the functions of lncFOXO1 in l...
متن کاملAurora kinase A revives dormant laryngeal squamous cell carcinoma cells via FAK/PI3K/Akt pathway activation
Revival of dormant tumor cells may be an important tumor metastasis mechanism. We hypothesized that aurora kinase A (AURKA), a cell cycle control kinase, promotes the transition of laryngeal squamous cell carcinoma (LSCC) cells from G0 phase to active division. We therefore investigated whether AURKA could revive dormant tumor cells to promote metastasis. Western blotting revealed that AURKA ex...
