Abstract:
Objective To investigate human cell division control protein 4(hCDC4) expression and its correlation with the clini‐copathological features in oral squamous cell carcinoma(OSCC) .Methods We freshly collected 52 samples of surgically resected OSCC tissues and 12 samples of normal tissues .hCDC4 expression in the samples was detected by immunohistochemical staining . The correlation between hCDC4 protein expression and clinicopathological feature was analysed .OSCC cells and Tca8113 were transfected with hCDC4‐siRNA ,cell proliferation and c‐Myc and Cyclin E protein expression were determined by using M TT and Western blot .Results The hCDC4 protein expression in normal tissues was significantly up‐regulated compared to those in OSCC tissues (83 .3% vs .25 .0% ,P < 0 .05) .Clinicopathological analysis revealed that reduced hCDC4 expression was associated with large tumor size ( ≥ 4 cm) and high clinic stage ( Ⅲ + Ⅳ ) (P< 0 .05) .hCDC4 knockdown by siRNA led to increased cell prolifera‐tion and c‐Myc and Cyclin E protein accumulation in Tca8113 cells .Conclusion Loss of hCDC4 may promote tumor progression by resulting in c‐Myc and Cyclin E protein accumulation in OSCC .
