Project description:Distant metastasis is a major factor associated with poor prognosis in head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSCC), but little is known of its molecular mechanisms. New markers that predict clinical outcome, in particular the ability of primary tumors to develop metastatic tumors, are urgently needed. Here, we identified neurotensin, highly expressed in HNSCCs in comparison with normal tissues, as an invasion-promoting factor in HNSCC by using microarray analysis of clinical samples. Indeed, neurotensin overexpression associated with lymph node metastasis of neck, and tumors exhibiting neurotensin overexpression had a poor distant metastasis-free survival rate. In HNSCC cells which expressed neurotensin receptor 1 (NTSR1), neurotensin promoted cellular invasion, migration, and induction of matrix metalloproteinases transcripts. Disruption of NTSR1 signaling by silencing RNA caused the reversion of the invasion of HNSCC cells. By further microarray analysis using neurotensin-treated cells, neurotensin caused increased expression of genes implicated in tumor progression and metastasis including cell growth, migration, invasion, adhesion, angiogenesis, and apoptosis. Our findings have revealed a critical role of neurotensin/NTSR1 for invasion and migration in the metastatic process of HNSCC. This study raises the possibility that neurotensin/NTSR1 could be used as a possible predictive marker and a molecular therapeutic target in the antimetastatic strategies of HNSCC. Keywords: Identification of a novel therapeutic target for head and neck squamous cell carcinomas A total of 21 primary HNSCC samples were obtained from patients who underwent tumor resection at Chiba University Hospital (Chiba, Japan). 21 samples of normal-appearing mucosa at the margin of the surgical resection several centimeters from the tumor were also collected and designated histologically normal mucosa. 21 HNSCCs and paired normal tissues were used for microarray experiment. The clinicopathological grade was classified according to the criteria of the Japan Society for Head and Neck Cancer. The Ethics Committee of Chiba University approved our study, and informed consent was obtained from all patients for use of their tissue samples and clinical data. Tissue samples were immediately snap frozen in liquid nitrogen and stored at -80°C until use.

Project description:This study represents a proteomic resource for HNSCC and SQCLC with quantitative protein expression data for 7800 proteins and provides a proteomic diagnostic signature for classification for undetermined secondary lung tumors in HNSCC patients. By quantitative mass-spectrometry-based proteomics, we characterized a cohort of 63 squamous cell carcinomas of the lung (SQCLC), 49 of the head and neck region (HNSCC) and 51 HNSCC-correlated lung tumors with squamous cell histology that evolved in the course of the disease.

Project description:Head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSCC) is one of the most common cancers in India. Despite improvements in treatment strategy, the survival rates of HNSCC patients remains poor. Thus, it is necessary to identify biomarkers that can be used for early detection of disease. In this study, we employed iTRAQ-based quantitative mass spectrometry analysis to identify dysregulated proteins from a panel of head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSCC) cell lines. We identified 2,468 proteins, of which 496 proteins were found to be dysregulated in at least two HNSCC cell lines compared to immortalized normal oral keratinocytes. We detected increased expression of replication protein A1 (RPA1) and heat shock protein family H (Hsp110) member 1 (HSPH1), in HNSCC cell lines compared to control. The differentially expressed proteins were further validated using parallel reaction monitoring (PRM) and western blot analysis in HNSCC cell lines. Immunohistochemistry-based validation using HNSCC tissue microarrays revealed overexpression of RPA1 and HSPH1 in 15.7% and 32.2% of the tested cases, respectively. Our study illustrates quantitative proteomics as a robust approach for identification of potential HNSCC biomarkers.

Project description:Head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSCC) is a heterogeneous group of malignancies arising from different sites and the 8th most common type of cancer in the world. While the advent of new techniques and multimodality therapy have improved prognosis of locally HNSCC, the appearance of distant metastases (DM) remains a challenge both for prognosis and treatment. To date, the genomic landscape of dissemination of HNSCC has to be further studied, in order to predict whether a patient will develop distant metastases. Therefore, knowing that the risk of disease spread to DM is directly correlated to initial staging, it suggested the hypothesis that the development of DM could be linked to the biologic characteristics of the primary tumor. The aim of our work is to compare gene expression profile of primary tumors of patients who develop and not develop DM. Additionally, we studied the expression profile of matched distant metastasis.

Project description:The involvement of microRNAs (miRNAs) in cancer and their potential as biomarkers of diagnosis, prognosis and response to therapy is becoming increasingly appreciated. The etiology of head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSCC) is predominantly associated with the synergistic effects of tobacco and alcohol use, as well as Human Papilloma Virus (HPV) infection, which embodies a distinct clinical and biological phenotype. We sought to examine whether the profile of miRNAs in HNSCC varies based on HPV status, and to identify specific miRNAs altered in head and neck carcinogenesis. Total RNA was isolated from 16 HNSCC fresh frozen primary tumors, 5 fresh frozen non-diseased head and neck epithelial tissues, and 2 HNSCC cell lines. The miRNA profile of 662 individual miRNAs in these tissues was examined by microarray. 18 miRNAs are significantly altered in their expression between normal tissues and HNSCC tumors and 5 miRNAs are identified as significantly differentially expressed between HPV-positive (HPV+) and HPV-negative (HPV-) tumors. A striking difference in expression pattern of miRNA was also observed between primary tissues and cell lines. These data suggest that the pattern of miRNA expression may be reflective of disease etiology, and may be useful in the realm of diagnostic biomarkers defining broadly responsive prevention and treatment strategies for HNSCC. These data also suggest that cultured tumor cell lines may be inappropriate for novel miRNA biomarker identification.
