Abstract

Stromal cell-derived factor-1α (SDF-1α), also known as CXCL12, has variable effects on a plurality of cells. CXCR4 has been identified as its corresponding receptor. The SDF-1-CXCR4 axis is postulated to be a crucial key pathway in the interaction between (cancer) stem cells and their surrounding supportive cells in the cancer stem cell niche. We evaluated the expression of CD44 as a cancer stem cell marker and of CXCR4 in human HNSCC tissue samples. Afterwards, we monitored the concentration of SDF-1 in peripheral blood samples of HNSCC patients and healthy donors. We showed that CD44 and CXCR4 are expressed in human HNSCC tissues. Markedly, CD44 showed a high expression in HNSCC cells bordering cancer stromal cells. CXCR4 was mainly expressed in HNSCC tumor nests, but not in the surrounding stromal cells. No significant difference was noted between the SDF-1 concentration in the peripheral blood of HNSCC patients compared to healthy donors. We showed that CD44, as a stem cell marker in HNSCC, is located mainly at the borderline of HNSCC tumor nests with the surrounding cells. In addition, we demonstrated that CXCR4 as the corresponding receptor to SDF-1 is highly expressed in HNSCC tumor nests, but not in the tumor stroma. We collected evidence that SDF-1-CXCR4 interaction may be a crucial pathway in cell trafficking in the cancer stem cell niche of HNSCC, while SDF-1 was not detected in the peripheral blood of HNSCC patients. The SDF-1-CXCR4 axis may play an important role in the cancer stem cell theory of HNSCC. As SDF-1α also exhibits a multitude of functional effects on HNSCC cells, such as migration and polarization, it may be possible that the SDF-1-CXCR4 axis is also involved in the pathophysiology of the progression, recurrence and metastasis of malignant disease. Understanding these interactions may help to gain further insight into these mechanisms and as such help to discover new strategies of therapy.
