Recent studies have reported PAR1 expression in the various malignancies, however, the detail role remains unclear in oral squamous cell carcinoma (OSCC). We previously showed that down-regulation of ΔNp63, a homolog of p53, augments PAR1 expression in OSCC. In this study, we retrospectively examined the association of PAR1 expression in OSCC with clinicopathological findings. Expression of PAR1, thrombin, and ΔNp63 was immunohistochemically examined in the OSCC biopsy specimens. The patients were divided into three groups based on the expression pattern of PAR1 at the invasive front as follows: group A; PAR1-negative in both cancer and stromal cells: group B; positive in stromal cells but negative in cancer cells: group C; positive in both cancer and stromal cells. Histologically high-grade tumors were significantly more common in group C. The patients of group C had the highest incidence rate of nodal metastasis and significantly lower survival rate than other groups. At the invasive front, thrombin was expressed but ΔNp63 was faint. These results indicated that increased PAR1 expression in both cancer and stromal cells could be a useful predictive marker of nodal metastasis and ΔNp63 was involved in regulating PAR1 expression..

Recent studies have highlighted the involvement of microRNA (miRNA) in EMT of cancer cells, though the mechanism remains unclear. To identify miRNAs responsible for ΔNp63β-mediated EMT, miRNA microarray analyses were performed by ΔNp63β-overexpression in OSCC cells; SQUU-B, which lacks ΔNp63 expression and displays EMT phenotypes. miRNAs microarray analyses revealed miR-205 was the most up-regulated following ΔNp63β-overexpression. In OSCC cells, miR-205 expression was positively associated with ΔNp63 and negatively with zinc-finger E-box binding homeobox (ZEB) 1 and ZEB2, potential targets of miR-205. miR-205 overexpression by miR-205 mimic transfection into SQUU-B cells led to decreasing ZEB1, ZEB2, and mesenchymal markers, increasing epithelial markers, and reducing cell motilities, suggesting inhibition of EMT phenotype. Interestingly, the results opposite to this phenomenon were obtained by transfection of miR-205 inhibitor into OSCC cells, which express ΔNp63 and miR-205. Furthermore, target protector analyses revealed direct regulation by miR-205 of ZEB1 and ZEB2 expression. These results showed tumor-suppressive roles of ΔNp63β and miR-205 by inhibiting EMT thorough modulating ZEB1 and ZEB2 expression in OSCC..

In this study, DNA microarray analyses were performed using ΔNp63β-overexpressing OSCC cells to identify genes associated with ΔNp63β-mediated EMT. Thereby, we focused on kallikrein-related peptidase (KLK) 6, most up-regulated following ΔNp63β-overexpression, that activates protease-activated receptors (PARs). In RT-PCR analyses, ΔNp63 was positively associated with KLK6 and PAR2 and negatively with PAR1 in OSCC cells. By ΔNp63 knockdown, KLK6 and PAR2 expression was decreased and PAR1 was increased. Furthermore, KLK6 knockdown led to enhancing migration and invasion, and inhibiting proliferation, suggesting EMT-phenotypes. Although, in the KLK6 or PAR2 knockdown cells, phosphorylation of ERK was reduced, it was restored in the KLK6 knockdown OSCC cells treated with recombinant KLK6 proteins. Immunohistochemistry showed ΔNp63, KLK6, and PAR2 were more strongly expressed in the epithelial dysplasia and central region of OSCC than normal oral epithelium, whereas PAR1 expression was undetectable. Interestingly, at the invasive front of OSCC, ΔNp63, KLK6, and PAR2 were reduced, but PAR1 was elevated. In addition, the OSCC patients with decreasing KLK6 expression at the invasive front had more unfavourable prognosis. These results suggested differential roles of KLK6 in malignant transformation and EMT; high ΔNp63β expression up-regulates KLK6-PAR2 and down-regulates PAR1, inducing malignant transformation in oral epithelium with stimulating proliferation through ERK signal activation. Moreover, KLK6-PAR2 expression is down-regulated and PAR1 is up-regulated when ΔNp63β expression is decreased, leading to EMT with enhancing migration and invasion through ERK signal reduction at the invasive front..

DNA microarray was thus performed to elucidate the mechanism that ΔNp63β affects cell motility. As the results, Wnt5a was significantly down-regulated by ΔNp63β overexpression in tongue SCC cell line (SQUU-B) with EMT phenotype. MATERIALS AND METHODS: Seven OSCC cell lines were used. Expression of ΔNp63, Wnt5a, its receptor Ror2, and matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs) were analyzed by RT-PCR, real-time PCR, and western blotting, and gelatin zymography. Furthermore, we examined the effects of siRNA for Wnt5a or Ror2 and recombinant human Wnt5a (rhWnt5a) on motility of tongue SCC cells. Biopsy specimens from tongue SCC patients were used for immunohistochemical staining of Wnt5a and Ror2. RESULTS: Wnt5a and Ror2 were expressed only in SQUU-B cells without ΔNp63 expression, and negatively associated with ΔNp63 expression in other cells. ΔNp63β overexpression in SQUU-B cells decreased Wnt5a and Ror2 expression. By Wnt5a or Ror2 knockdown, cell motility was remarkably inhibited, but EMT markers expression was unaffected. MMP-2 expression and the activities inversely correlated with ΔNp63 expression, and were inhibited by Wnt5a or Ror2 knockdown. Cell motility and MMP-2 activities were recovered by adding rhWnt5a in the cells with Wnt5a knockdown, but not in those with Ror2 knockdown. Moreover, immunohistochemical analyses in tongue SCC specimens found that high expression of Wnt5a or Ror2 was associated with poorer prognosis..
