Abstract

Oral squamous cell carcinoma (OSCC) is one of the most fatal types of oral cancer worldwide. Forkhead box M1 (FOXM1) is associated with the occurrence and development of a number of types of human cancer, but its function in OSCC remains unclear. The present study aimed to explore the effect of FOXM1 downregulation using lentivirus‑mediated short hairpin (sh)RNA against FOXM1 (LV‑shFOXM1) in the cell line Tca8113 in vitro. Infection of Tca8113 cells with LV‑shFOXM1 inhibited the mRNA and protein expression level of FOXM1. The downregulation of FOXM1 resulted in cell cycle arrest of Tca8113 cells, and the inhibition of proliferation, migration and invasion. The protein expression level of cyclins B1 and D1 were downregulated, whereas those of p27 and p21 were upregulated following infection with LV‑shFOXM1, compared with the blank control and LV‑shCON groups. In addition, FOXM1 downregulation decreased the expression of matrix metalloproteinase‑2 and LV‑shFOXM1 significantly suppressed OSCC cell viability. Therefore, FOXM1 may be a target for the treatment of OSCC.
