Description
Abstract
Background and Aims. Eukaryotic translation initiation factor 5A2 (EIF5A2) has been reported to be involved in metastasis and chemotherapy resistance in many human cancers. However, the effect and mechanism of EIF5A2 in oral cancer cells are unknown. Here, we investigated the effects of targeting EIF5A2 on chemotherapy resistance in oral cancer cells in vitro.
Methods. By using a lentiviral system, we investigated the effects of targeting EIF5A2 on the invasion, migration, growth, and chemosensitivity of SCC-9 cells to CDDP in vitro. Through the method of gene intervention, we explore the role of pro-apoptotic Bim and epithelial and mesenchymal marker E-cadherin protein in this process and the regulation of EIF5A2 on Bim and E-cadherin.
Results. Targeting EIF5A2 reduces invasion and migration in SCC-9 cells partly through upregulation of E-cadherin expression; Targeting EIF5A2 promotes cell apoptosis and inhibits cell survival as well as increasing chemosensitivity in SCC-9 cells through upregulation of Bim expression.
Conclusion. EIF5A2 may be a novel potential therapeutic target for oral cancer by upregulation of Bim and E-cadherin
