Abstract:
Objective:To study the expression of stomatin-like protein 2(STOML2)in oral squamous cell carcinoma(OSCC)tissue and the effects of STOML2 on the tumorigenicity of OSCC cells(OSCCCs)in vitro and in vivo,and the related mechanism.Methods:The protein expression of STOML2 in OSCC and adjacent tissues of 56 patients was detected.OSCCCs SCC-15 were divided into 2 groups.Stom12-siRNA plasmid was transfected into the cells of experimental group and Mock-siRNA plasmid was transfected into the cells of control group.The mRNA and protein expression of STOML2,CDK4 and P16 in the cells was detected by qPCR and Western blot respectively.The cell cycle of the cells was detected by flow cytometry,and the proliferation of the cells was detected by CCK8 asay.The tumorigenicity of the cells was detected by subcutaneous tumor model in nude mice.Results:The positive rate of STOML2 in OSCC and adjacent tissues was 92.86％(52/56)and 8.93％(5/56)respectively(P＜0.001).After siRNA transfection,STOML2 mRNA expression in SCC-15 cells of experimental group and control group was(0.43±0.09)and(1.23±0.19),STOML2 protein ex-pression was(0.52±0.11)and(0.94±0.17)respectively.CDK4 expression was(0.33±0.13)and(1.18±0.17),P16 expression was(0.93±0.12)and(0.29±0.03),respectively.In CCK8 assay the absorbance of SCC-15 cells in experimental group and control group was(1.11±0.24)and(2.19±0.28),in flow cytometry the percentage of cells in G2/M phase was 35.72％±5.33％and 18.65％±3.71％(P＜0.05),respectively.In vivo test showed that the volume(μm3)of subcutaneous transplanted tumor was 1 192.07 ±250.9 and 2 280.5±600.1,the weight(g)of mice was 0.65±0.30 and 1.62±0.40,respectively.Conclusion:STOML2 expression increases in OSCC,STOML2 affects the tumorigenic ability of OSCCCs in vitro and in vivo by regulating P16 related pathways.
