Background Squamous cell carcinoma of the oral cavity (SCCOC) is the dominant origin of cancer associated mortality. Previous findings by our study reported that acquisition of anoikis resistance has a significant role in tumor progression of oral cavity. Several genes were over-expressed in anoikis-resistant cells under detached conditions which we confirmed earlier by microarray. Normal oral squamous epithelia grow adherent to a basement membrane, and when detached from the extracellular matrix, undergoes programmed cell death. The acquisition of anoikis-resistance is crucial phenomena in oral tumor advancement. In the current study, we have identified S100A7 expression as contributing factor for anoikis resistance and tumorigenicity in human oral cancer cells. Further, we have explored that elevated S100A7 expression in anoikis-sensitive oral keratinocytes and cancer cells reshape them more resistant to anoikis and apoptosis inducers via activation of cellular intrinsic and extrinsic avenue.
