Abstract

Heparin-binding epidermal growth factor (EGF)-like growth factor (HB-EGF) has been shown to stimulate the growth of various cell types in an autocrine or paracrine manner. Although HB-EGF is widely expressed in tumors when compared with normal tissue, its contribution to cancer progression remains obscure. The objective of this study was to explore the effects of HB-EGF on proliferation, invasion activity and MMP-9 levels of an oral squamous cell carcinoma cell line, HSC3, in vitro. MTT assays, Matrigel invasion assays and RT-PCR in combination with RNA interference (RNAi) were used in this study. An RNAi-mediated decrease in HB-EGF expression reduced invasion activity and MMP-9 mRNA levels, but not proliferation, in HSC3 cells. The addition of purified HB-EGF to cell culture medium upregulated MMP-9 mRNA levels in HSC3 cells. Furthermore, the TACE inhibitor TAPI-2 or EGFR inhibitor AG1478 decreased MMP-9 mRNA levels in HSC3 cells. These data indicate that HB-EGF released from HSC3 cells by TACE stimulates EGFR in an autocrine manner, which in turn activates invasion activity via MMP-9 upregulation.
