Abstract:Objective To investigate the effect of low expression ectonucleotide pyrophosphatase/phosphodiesterase 1 (ENPP1) on the epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT) in oral squamous cell carcinoma. Methods The normal human oral mucosal epithelial cell line and human oral squamous cell carcinoma CAL-27 cells were cultured and subcultured, the expression of ENPP1 mRNA was detected. CAL-27 cells in logarithmic growth stage were transfected and divided into blank group (without treatment), control group (transfected with NC-siRNA plasmid) and transfection group (transfected with ENPP1-siRNA). The expression of ENPP1 mRNA and protein were detected. CAL-27 cells in logarithmic growth stage were transfected and divided into group A (not transfected), group B (transfected with NC-siRNA plasmid) and group C (transfected with ENPP1-siRNA plasmid + MAPK agonist), group D (transfected with ENPP1-siRNA plasmid), group E (MAPK agonist). The proliferation activity, number of invasive cells, migration ability and protein expression of phosphorylated-mitogen activated protein kinase (p-MAPK) and phosphorylated-extracellular regulated kinase 1/2 (p-ERK1/2) were detected. Results Absorbance (A) of each period, group D < group C < group A, group B < group E (all P < 0.05). The number of invasive cells in five groups were (85.23±2.22) cells/field, (85.41±1.59) cells/field, (53.67±2.10) cells/field, (37.39±2.06) cells/field and (111.08±5.20) cells/field cells/field, respectively, group D < group C < group A, group B < group E (all P < 0.05). The percentage of scratch width: group E < group A, group B < group C < group D (all P < 0.05). The relative expression levels of p-MAPK, p-ERK1 and p-ERK2 proteins: group D < group C < group A, group B < group E (all P < 0.05). Conclusion Low expression of ENPP1 can inhibit EMT, the mechanism may be related to the inhibition of MAPK signaling pathway. -
