PG - 686-9 AB - OBJECTIVE: This study was to investigate the expression and significance of Integrins subunits in laryngeal squamous cell carcinoma (LSCC). METHOD: The expression of Integrins subunits was detected by cDNA microarray in 4 cases of primary LSCC tissues and corresponding adjacent normal tissues. Semi-quantitative reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) were used to identify the different expression of Integrins subunits in 24 cases of primary LSCC tissues and corresponding adjacent normal tissues. RESULT: A cDNA microarray analysis revealed significant changes in the expression of Integrins subunits, with IntegrinalphaV, Integrinbeta8 being up-regulated and Integrinalpha8 being down-regulated. The result of RT-PCR was consistent with that of cDNA microarray. The mRNA levels of IntegrinalphaV and Integrinbeta8 were significantly higher in LSCC tissues than that in corresponding adjacent normal tissues (1.0131 +/- 0.4780 vs 0.7591 +/- 0.4678 for IntegrinalphaV, P<0.05, 1.7362 +/- 1.3849 vs 1.2267 +/- 0.9363 for Integrinbeta8, P<0.05). The mRNA levels of Integrinalpha8 were significantly lower in LSCC tissues than that in corresponding adjacent normal tissues (0.2646 +/- 0.2622 vs 0.5457 +/- 0.3827, P<0.05). CONCLUSION: The expression of IntegrinalphaV, Integrinbeta8, Integrinalpha8 were significantly up-regulated or down-regulated in laryngeal squamous cell carcinoma, which may relate to tumorigenesis and development of laryngeal squamous cell carcinoma.
