BACKGROUND: Abnormal activation of STAT3 and miR-21 plays a vital role in
progression and invasion of solid tumors. The cyclin-dependent kinase 5 (CDK5) is
reported to contribute to cancer metastasis by regulating epithelial-mesenchymal
transition (EMT). However, the role of STAT3/miR-21 axis and CDK5 in head and
neck squamous cell carcinoma remains unclear. METHODS: We measured the expression
of miR-21, CDK5 and EMT markers in 60 HNSCC tumor samples. We used
Immunohistochemistry and in situ hybridization assay to examine the role of
STAT3/miR-21 axis and CDK5 activation in the invasiveness of HNSCC. The clinical
survival relevance was analyzed by Kaplan-Meier analysis and
univariate/multivariate COX regression model. Multiple approaches including
scratch, transwell chamber assay and other molecular biology techniques were used
to validate the anti-invasion effect of targeting miR-21 in Tca8113 and Hep-2
cell lines in vitro. Furthermore, whether miR-21 depletion inhibits HNSCC
invasion in vivo was confirmed in Tca8113 xenograft tumor model. RESULTS: The
expression of miR-21 and CDK5 were significantly correlated with lymph node
metastasis in HNSCC. Hep-2 and Tca8113 cell lines showed co-overexpression of
miR-21 and CDK5. WP1066 or asON-miR-21 treatment depleted miR-21 and CDK5
expression and significantly inhibited migration or invasion in Hep-2 and Tca8113
cells. The expression levels of CDK5/p35, N-cadherin, vimentin, ?-catenin were
inhibited while E-cadherin level was increased by miR-21 depletion in vitro and
in vivo. Conversely, ectopic CDK5 overexpression significantly induced tumor cell
motility and EMT. Moreover, ectopic CDK5 overexpression in Hep-2 and Tca8113
cells rescued the observed phenotype after miR-21 silencing or WP1066 treatment.
CONCLUSIONS: miR-21 cooperates with CDK5 to promote EMT and invasion in HNSCC.
This finding suggests that CDK5 may be an important cofactor for targeting when
designing metastasis-blocking therapy by targeting STAT3/miR-21 axis with STAT3
inhibitor or miR-21 antisense oligonucleotide. This is the first demonstration of
the novel role of STAT3/miR-21 axis and CDK5/CDK5R1 (p35) in metastasis of HNSCC.
