ABSTRACT
<p><b>OBJECTIVE</b>To investigate the effects of Podoplanin on cell proliferation and cell cycle in oral leukoplakia cells.</p><p><b>METHODS</b>Oral leukoplakia cell line (Leuk-1) transfected with pCMV-Podoplanin (A4-1) or pCMV (B4-1) was used in this study. The levels of mRNA and protein of Podoplanin were detected by real-time PCR and Western boltting in A4-1, B4-1 and Leuk-1 cells. The localization of Podoplanin was detected by confocal microscope. Cell growth and proliferation was examined by methyl thiazolyl tetrazolium (MTT) assay and cell cycle was detected by flow cytometry (FCM).</p><p><b>RESULTS</b>The value of Podoplanin mRNA level in A4-1 cells was 0.022, which was significantly higher than the values in B4-1 (0.001) and Leuk-1 cells (0.002), P < 0.05. The gray scale of Podoplanin protein in A4-1 cells was significantly higher than in the control groups (P < 0.05). The expression of Podoplanin was observed in cell plasm and membrane of A4-1, B4-1 and Leuk-1 cells. But the expression level of Podoplanin in A4-1 cells was higher than in control groups. A4-1 cells grew faster than Leuk-1 cells. The proliferation rate after 3 days of culture in A4-1 cells was 40.4% higher than that in B4-1 cells (P < 0.05). The G₂-M phase (24.89 +/- 4.55)% and PI (0.57 +/- 0.06) of A4-1 cells were significantly higher than that in B4-1 cells [(4.13 +/- 5.24)%, (0.41 +/- 0.04)] and Leuk-1 cells [(4.69 +/- 7.42)%, (0.40 +/- 0.02)], P < 0.05.</p><p><b>CONCLUSIONS</b>Over expression of Podoplanin accelerated the growth and proliferation of oral leukoplakia cells. Podoplanin may be one of key genes in the malignant transformation of oral leukoplakia.</p>
