Adhesion properties, intermediate filaments and malignant behaviour of head and neck squamous cell carcinoma cells in vitro.

Abstract:

:This study compared phenotype and behaviour of seven head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSCC) cell lines and normal epithelial cells. Indications were found that in HNSCC cells: 1) loss of the cell-cell adhesion molecule E-cadherin was correlated with loss of epithelioid cell morphology but not with loss of cell-cell cohesion; 2) reduced expression of the cell-cell adhesion molecule desmoglein was unrelated to cell shape or motility; 3) high expression of the cell-substrate adhesion molecule alpha 6 beta 4, a receptor for laminin, corresponded with epithelioid colony formation while, in our adhesion assay, low expression of alpha 6 beta 4 paradoxically coincided with an increased adhesion to laminin; 4) presence of vimentin intermediate filaments coincided with loss of anchorage dependency. We propose that by simultaneous downregulation of E-cadherin, replacement of alpha 6 beta 4 by an aberrant laminin receptor and co-expression of vimentin a malignant phenotype arises of spindle-shaped, motile, anchorage-independent HNSCC cells with enhanced laminin-binding capacity.
