摘要
Purpose: ApoE is expressed in multiple mammalian cell types in which it supports cell differentiation function. The atheroprotective role of apoE has been well established for many years and has been recently identified as a potential tumorassociated marker in some kinds of malignancies. However, its expression and modulation by inflammatory factors such as lipopolysaccharide in head and neck squamous carcinoma(HNSC) cells has yet to be studied.Method: In this report we demonstrated the apoE expression and its regulation by LPS in HNSC cells. We also investigated the signaling pathways involved in induction of apoE gene expression in response to lipopolysaccharide(LPS) treatment. Result: It was interesting to see that the inhibition of either p38 mitogen-activated protein kinases(MAPK) or the Jun Nterminal kinase(JNK) enhanced LPS-induced apoE expression. Moreover, small interference RNA(siRNA) of NF-κB p65 attenuated cellular amount of p65 and suppressed LPS-induced apoE expression. Inhibition of apoE expression usingan apoE-specific siRNAin Fadu cells led to apoptosis and reduced tumor cell invasiveness. Conclusion: Our finding indicated apoE expression was modulated by NF-κB and MAPK in HNSC cells, apoE expression is important for tumor cell apoptosis and invasion.
