SOD3 Expression in Tumor Stroma Provides the Tumor Vessel Maturity in Oral Squamous Cell Carcinoma.

ABSTRACT: Tumor angiogenesis is one of the hallmarks of solid tumor development. The progressive tumor cells produce the angiogenic factors and promote tumor angiogenesis. However, how the tumor stromal cells influence tumor vascularization is still unclear. In the present study, we evaluated the effects of oral squamous cell carcinoma (OSCC) stromal cells on tumor vascularization. The tumor stromal cells were isolated from two OSCC patients with different subtypes: low invasive verrucous squamous carcinoma (VSCC) and highly invasive squamous cell carcinoma (SCC) and co-xenografted with the human OSCC cell line (HSC-2) on nude mice. In comparison, the CD34+ vessels in HSC-2+VSCC were larger than in HSC-2+SCC. Interestingly, the vessels in the HSC-2+VSCC expressed vascular endothelial cadherin (VE-cadherin), indicating well-formed vascularization. Our microarray data revealed that the expression of extracellular superoxide dismutase, SOD3 mRNA is higher in VSCC stromal cells than in SCC stromal cells. Moreover, we observed that SOD3 colocalized with VE-cadherin on endothelial cells of low invasive stroma xenograft. These data suggested that SOD3 expression in stromal cells may potentially regulate tumor vascularization in OSCC. Thus, our study suggests the potential interest in SOD3-related vascular integrity for a better OSCC therapeutic strategy.

Project description:Tumor‑associated macrophages (TAMs) are linked to the progression of numerous types of cancer. However, the effects of the tumor microenvironment (TME) of oral squamous cell carcinoma (OSCC), particularly the cancer stroma on TAMs, remains to be elucidated. In the present study, the effects of verrucous SCC‑associated stromal cells (VSCC‑SCs), SCC‑associated stromal cells (SCC‑SCs) and human dermal fibroblasts (HDFs) on the differentiation, proliferation and migration of macrophages in vitro was assayed using Giemsa staining, and immunofluorescence, MTS and Transwell (migration) assays, respectively. The combined results suggested that both VSCC‑SCs and SCC‑SCs promoted the differentiation of macrophages into M2 type TAMs, as well as the proliferation and migration of macrophages following crosstalk with HSC‑3 cells in vitro. Moreover, the SCC‑SCs exerted a more prominent effect on TAMs than the VSCC‑SCs. Immunohistochemical staining was used to examine the expression of CD34, CD45, CD11b and CD163 to assay the effects of VSCC‑SCs, SCC‑SCs and HDFs on microvessel density (MVD) and the infiltration of CD45(+) monocytes, CD11b(+) TAMs and CD163(+) M2 type macrophages. The results suggested that both VSCC‑SCs and SCC‑SCs promoted MVD and the infiltration of CD45(+) monocytes, CD11b(+) TAMs and CD163(+) M2 type TAMs into the TME of OSCC following crosstalk with HSC‑3 cells in vivo. The SCC‑SCs exerted a more prominent promoting effect than the VSCC‑SCs. Finally, the potential genes underlying the differential effects of VSCC‑SCs and SCC‑SCs on the infiltration of TAMs were investigated using microarray analysis. The results revealed that interleukin 1β, bone morphogenetic protein 4, interleukin 6 and C‑X‑C motif chemokine ligand 12 had great potential to mediate the differential effects of VSCC‑SCs and SCC‑SCs on TAM infiltration. On the whole, the findings presented herein, demonstrate that both VSCC‑SCs and SCC‑SCs promote the infiltration of TAMs into the TME of OSCC following crosstalk with HSC‑3 cells; the SCC‑SCs were found to exert a more prominent promoting effect. This may represent a potential regulatory mechanism for the infiltration of TAMs into the TME of OSCC.
