Stromal cell-derived factor-1 inducing metastasis squamous cell carcinoma of head and neck induced via integrin ανβ3-CXC chemokine receptor 4/7 biological axis / 华西口腔医学杂志

ABSTRACT

<p><b>OBJECTIVE</b>To observe the influence of LM609/AMD3100/CCX754 on chemotactic capability, cytoskeleton, and expression of integrin ανβ3 protein of squamous cell carcinoma of head and neck (SCCHN) cell line PCI-13 induced by stromal cell-derived factor-1 (SDF-1) in vitro.</p><p><b>METHODS</b>Migration assays, flow cytometry and immunofluorescence were used to observe the effects of SDF-1, LM609, AMD3100 and CCX754 on the migration, cytoskeleton and the expression of integrin ανβ3 protein in PCI-13 cell lines.</p><p><b>RESULTS</b>SDF-1 favored PCI-13 cell migration, pseudopod formation, and activities of integrin ανβ3 phosphorylation. LM609, AMD3100, and CCX754 blocked all these effects.</p><p><b>CONCLUSIONS</b>SDF-1 can induce metastatic SCCHN by integrin ανβ3-CXC chemokine receptor (CXCR) 4/CXCR7 axi. LM609, AMD3100, and CCX754 and can reduce the regulation of SDF-1 on SCCHN activity.</p>
