Background & Objective: Over-expression of CD151 gene in tumor tissues may be associated with metastasis and poor prognosis of cancer, but the mechanism is unknown. This study was designed to determine the effects of CD151 gene on migration of human tongue squamous carcinoma cell line Tca8113.
Methods: Functional fragment of CD151 gene was amplified by reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR), and inserted into plasmid adeno-associated virus (pAAV) vector in sense direction and antisense direction to construct rAAV-CD151 and rAAV-antiCD151, the virus titers were determined by dot blot. Two weeks after transfection, protein level of CD151 in Tca8113 cells was detected by Western blot, the effect of CD151 on migration of Tca8113 cells was detected by Transwell chambers.
Results: Titer of rAAV-CD151 was 2x10(11) pfu/ml, titer of rAAV-antiCD151 was 1x10(11) pfu/ml. Transfection of rAAV-CD151 increased expression of CD151 in Tca8113 cells by 108% of control cells, while transfection of rAAV-antiCD151 decreased expression of CD151 in Tca8113 cells by 79% of control cells. Migrated cells count was significantly higher in rAAV-CD151-transfected cells (93.6+/-11.6), and lower in rAAV-antiCD151-transfected cells (24.0+/-4.4) than in untransfected and rAAV-GFP-transfected cells (53.0+/-6.6 and 46.0+/-7.0, P<0.05).
Conclusions: It is an important molecular mechanism of tumor metastasis that over-expression of CD151 promotes migration of tumor cells. rAAV-antiCD151, a novel therapeutic tool, can specifically reduce the expression of CD151, and inhibit migration of tumor cells.

Background: Oral cancer, a malignancy that is prevalent worldwide, is often diagnosed at an advanced stage. MicroRNAs (miRNAs) in circulating exosomes have emerged as promising cancer biomarkers. The role of miRNA let-7c-5p in oral cancer remains underexplored, and its potential involvement in tumorigenesis warrants comprehensive investigation.

The tumor necrosis factor α-induced protein 8 (TIPE, also TNFAIP8 or OXi-α) family is a newly discovered series of proteins involved in immune regulation and tumorigenesis. TIPE1, a member of the TIPE/TNFAIP8/OXi-α family, has emerged as an anticancer-drug target, as it promotes cancer cell apoptosis and inhibits cell proliferation. The current study aimed to systematically reveal that TIPE1 regulates the activity of protein arginine methyltransferase (PRMT)-1 and the subsequent methylation of signal transducer and activator of transcription (STAT)-3 to suppress oral squamous cell carcinoma (OSCC) growth.

Green tea polyphenol (-)-Epigallocatechin-3-gallate (EGCG) has been well studied for its biological activities in the prevention of chronic diseases. However, the biological activities of EGCG oxidation-derived polymers remain unclear. Previously, we found that these polymers accumulated in intraperitoneal tissues after intraperitoneal injection and gained an advantage over native EGCG in increasing insulin sensitivity regulating the renin-angiotensin system (RAS) in type 2 diabetic mice.

Objective: To evaluate the inhibitory effect of cordycepin on oral cancer xenograft in nude mice and explore the underlying mechanisms.
Methods: Sixteen BALB/c mice bearing subcutaneous human tongue squamous cell carcinoma (TSCC) TCA-8113 cell xenografts were randomized into model group and cordycepin treatment group for daily treatment with saline and cordycepin for 4 weeks. After the treatment, the tumor xenografts were dissected and weighed to assess the tumor inhibition rate.
