Abstract

c-Jun activation domain-binding protein‑1 (Jab1) is a multifunctional protein involved in cell proliferation and apoptosis, DNA damage and repair and genome stability. In a number of types of human carcinoma, the abnormal expression of Jab1 is associated with poor prognosis, suggesting that Jab1 serves a vital function in tumorigenesis. However, the functional effects and the underlying molecular mechanisms of Jab1 in laryngeal squamous cell carcinoma (LSCC) progression remain poorly understood. The results of the present study demonstrate that downregulating Jab1 expression promotes LSCC apoptosis while inhibiting the proliferation of LSCC cells. Furthermore, Jab1 inhibition results in decreased protein kinase B phosphorylation accompanied by increased caspase‑3 cleavage and p53 expression. It has been identified that the increased expression of Jab1 is markedly associated with LSCC progression, therefore Jab1 may be used as a novel target for the treatment of laryngeal cancer.
