Tid1, a Cochaperone Protein, Plays a Role in Normal Development and Tumorigenesis
口腔癌 (Oral Cancer) 2004年臺灣男性人口癌症死亡率的第3位。雖然口腔癌的治療和診斷已經改進了許多, 然而口腔癌的預後判斷依然是值得憂慮的。高效率的口腔癌治療或預防是受益於新進的研究。 無限制的細胞增生是癌症的主要特點。實際上,細胞內錯誤的細胞訊息傳遞所導致的細胞增生才是癌化和腫瘤新生的主要原因。表皮生長因子接受器 (epithelium growth factor receptor, ErbB1-4) 及他們的受質(ligands) 與癌化有很強烈的牽連性。在口腔癌相關的觀察研究中發現,表皮生長因子接受器成員中有過量表達者包括EGFR, ErbB2, ErbB3 ErbB4 ErbB 接受器heterodimers的同時表達中以EGFR ErbB2, 在口腔鱗狀上皮細胞癌 (OSCC) 發病原理上有直接地關連。EGFRErbB2 具有內含性的tyrosine kinase活性,而癌化信號的傳遞是由其細胞質區(cytoplasmic domain) 負責以內送入細胞。我們先前發現,EGFRErbB2 的細胞質區與Tid1蛋白質有直接地作用。Tid1蛋白質是果蠅腫瘤抑制器Tid56在人的同源體。Tid56的突變所導致果蠅的 imaginal disc腫瘤化,起因於連續性的細胞增生及其分化性失效。Tid56的轉譯蛋白質為DnaJ 家族的一員, 具有調節Hsp70 (heat shock protein 70) chaperone作用的能力。我們已知Tid1 的過量表達可降低乳腺癌細胞的增生。也有報導指出在SF767 神經膠質瘤細胞出現hTid-1的突變。而Tid1 的作用在口腔癌是未知的。由於Tid1 EGFR ErbB2 接受器有直接地作用,EGFR ErbB2 接受器在口腔癌腫瘤有過量地表達。所以,我們推測 Tid1 的功能可作為一腫瘤抑制器在ErbB 依存的口腔癌之癌化過程。由於口腔癌患者的高再現及對常規療法拮抗作用之發生,有效的chemopreventive 方法的發展是一項具有相當重要性的研究。為此,我們的研究將可進一步驗證Tid1可作為口腔癌腫瘤抑制器,並期望未來以Tid1 作為口腔癌之治療標的。

 

Head and Neck Cancer Stem Cells in Tumorigenesis
癌症病患在腫瘤切除後仍具有相當高地腫瘤復發性。此腫瘤復發性支持了腫瘤內細胞異質性(heterogeneity)的存在。癌幹細胞的理論指出腫瘤內只有少數之癌細胞具備有正常幹細胞分化及分裂之特徵,及「自我更新(self-renewal)」的能力,進而促進腫瘤新生。傳統醫療方式是以殺死癌細胞為主,但癌幹細胞或許才是最主要的治療標的。癌幹細胞已知存在於血癌、腦瘤、乳癌、前列腺癌及黑色素皮膚癌等腫瘤組織中且具有不同的細胞表面標記(marker)。 利用無血清幹細胞篩選培養液,本實驗室可自口腔癌細胞株中分離出從平貼型態轉而形成幹細胞球體(Stem cell spheres)之細胞,分離出之癌幹細胞球體會加強表現幹細胞之標記基因,如NanogOct-4Nestin與癌細胞轉移標記基因S100A4。 由於口腔癌患者的高再現及對常規療法拮抗作用之發生, 有效的chemopreventive 方法的發展是一項具有相當重要性的研究。為此,我們將進一步驗證口腔癌幹細胞對口腔癌化之重要性。
