ABSTRACT
<p><b>OBJECTIVE</b>To investigate the effects of caveolin-1 on the biologic behavior of laryngeal squamous cell carcinoma HEp2 cell line in vitro.</p><p><b>METHODS</b>Eukaryotic expression vector of human caveolin-1 gene was constructed and transfected into HEp2 cells by Lipofectamine. The clones stably overexpressing caveolin-1 were identified by real-time PCR and Western blotting. Cell proliferation viability was tested by MTT assay. Anchorage-independent growth was determined by assaying colony formation in soft agar. Flow cytometry was used to assess the cell cycle and apoptosis. The relative phosphorylation level of EGFR and ERK1/2 were detected by Western blotting. Localization of caveolin-1 and EGFR were studied by laser confocal laser scanning microscopy.</p><p><b>RESULTS</b>The expression vector of caveolin-1 was constructed and three clones stably overexpressing caveolin-1 were obtained. Comparing with the parental HEp2 cells, the transfected cells exhibited a slower growth rate and formed fewer colonies in soft agar. The results of FACS analysis revealed that overexpression of caveolin-1 resulted in the cell cycle arrest at G0/G1 phase and increased the apoptotic cell fraction. EGFR was found to colocalize with caveolin-1 in transfected cells by confocal laser scanning microscopy and Western blotting results showed that overexpression of caveolin-1 reduced the phosphorylation of EGFR and Erkl/2.</p><p><b>CONCLUSION</b>Overexpression of caveolin-1 suppresses the growth of HEp2 cells and induces apoptosis and inhibition of EGFR-MAPK signaling pathway may be involved in its mechanism.</p>
