FBXW7 Enhances Cisplatin-Induced Apoptosis in Oral Cancer Cell Lines.

ABSTRACT:

Background

About one-third of patients with oral squamous cell carcinoma (OSCC) have a risk of occurrence and chemoresistance, making survival rates abysmal. We aim to evaluate the role of F-box/WD repeat-containing protein 7 (FBXW7) to further develop efficient treatment of chemoresistant OSCC.

Methods

FBXW7 overexpression was induced in human OSCC cell lines including SCC9 and CAL27 by a lentiviral vector, Lv-FBXW7 or lv-NC (noncoding control), and overexpression efficiency was assessed using quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction (qRT-PCR) and western blot of FBXW7. Cell viability was measured using MTT assay. The effects of FBXW7 overexpression on cell migration and invasion was evaluated by the colony formation assay and Matrigel assay. Apoptosis of cells with
