Abstract
In this study, we have examined the expression of integrin subunits in normal and malignant human salivary gland cell clones as well as its regulation by transforming growth factor-beta 1 (TGF-beta 1). By the analysis using immunofluorescence staining, an SV40 immortalized normal human salivary gland duct cell clone (NS-SVDC) with no tumorigenic ability by s.c. implantation into nude mice was identified to express the integrin beta 1, alpha 2, alpha 3 and alpha 6 subunits on the cell surface, while the expression of these subunits, except for beta 1 subunit, was reduced or completely diminished in a neoplastic human salivary gland duct cell clone (HSGc) with tumorigenic but not metastatic potential in nude mice and metastatic cell clones derived after in vitro exposure of HSGc to N-methyl-N-nitrosourea. In addition, immunoblot analysis also exhibited the same results as those obtained with immunofluorescence staining. The alpha 1 subunit was not demonstrable in any of the cell clones by both techniques. TGF-beta 1 augmented the expression of the beta 1 subunit in NS-SV-DC, while HSGc and metastatic cell clones demonstrated no changes in the expression of the beta 1 subunit in response to TGF-beta 1. These findings, therefore, suggest that there is an inverse relationship between the malignancy and the expression mode of integrin subunits, especially alpha 2 subunit, in human salivary gland cell clones with varying degrees of malignant potential, and that TGF-beta 1 is a positive regulatory factor in the expression of the beta 1 subunit in normal but not malignant cell clones.
