Abstract |
Head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSCC) is one of the most lethal cancers mainly due to the high rate of metastasis. Here, we find that the expression level of CD100 in HNSCC is positively correlated with the T category, pathological grade and lymph node metastasis of the tumor. The level of soluble CD100 (sCD100) is highly increased in serum of HNSCC patients, and sCD100 markedly induces the epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT) of HNSCC through its receptor, Plexin-B1 (PlxnB1), and promotes the metastasis in a xenograft mouse model. Furthermore, sCD100 promotes the stabilization of Snail through the regulation of the Vav1-Rac1/RhoA-p21-activated kinase pathway for the induction of EMT. Anti-CD100 antibody abolishes the CD100-induced EMT and prevents the metastasis of HNSCC, and anti-CD100 antibody also increases the drug sensitivity of HNSCC. Taken together, our study shows for the first time that CD100 induces the EMT of HNSCC and promotes the metastasis, and CD100 would be a candidate as a novel prognostic biomarker and a potential therapeutic target for HNSCC.
