Human papilloma virus positive oropharyngeal squamous cell carcinoma: a growing epidemic.

Panwar A, Batra R, Lydiatt WM, Ganti AK.Author information Division of Head and Neck Surgery, University of Nebraska Medical Center, Omaha, NE, USA.AbstractThe incidence of oropharyngeal squamous cell carcinoma (OPSCC) is increasing despite a decrease in tobacco use. Almost 20-30% of patients with OPSCC do not have the traditional risk factors of smoking and alcohol use and in a vast majority of these patients, the human papilloma virus (HPV) appears to drive the malignant transformation. HPV induced malignant transformation is attributed to two viral oncogenes and their non-structural protein products (E6 and E7). These two proteins appear to affect carcinogenesis by their inhibitory effects on p53 and retinoblastoma proteins (Rb). Patients with HPV mediated OPSCC seem to have a better prognosis compared to their non-HPV counterparts. However, in the absence of strong evidence, standard of care at this time for OPSCC does not differ based on HPV status. Current research is focused on the role of de-escalation of treatment and elucidation of prognostic markers in this unique population. This review focuses on the pathogenesis of HPV mediated OPSCC and details the current evidence in the management of these patients.

EBV-encoded LMP-1 sensitizes nasopharyngeal carcinoma cells to genotoxic drugs by down-regulating Cabin1 expression.

Chang PY, Wu ZZ, Sun NK, Chao CC.Author information Tumor Biology Laboratory, Department of Biochemistry and Molecular Biology, Chang Gung University College of Medicine, Gueishan, Taoyuan, Taiwan, Republic of China.AbstractThe oncogenic latent membrane protein 1 (LMP1) of Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) is involved in the pathogenesis of human nasopharyngeal carcinoma (NPC) and lymphoma. We and other authors have shown earlier that LMP1 induces apoptosis and inhibits xenograft tumor growth in mice, but the mechanism underlying these processes has not been investigated so far. In the present study, we show that knockdown of LMP1 renders the EBV-positive NPC cell line CG-1 resistant to various genotoxic drugs (cisplatin, etoposide, and adriamycin). LMP1 inhibits the expression of Cabin1, a Ca(2+) regulated protein shown earlier to inhibit calcineurin. Knockdown of calcineurin binding protein (Cabin1) with small hairpin RNA sensitizes CG-1 cells to genotoxic drugs. In contrast, LMP1 overexpression reduces Cabin1 level and renders both CG-1 cells and EBV-negative NPC cell lines sensitive to cisplatin. The c-Jun-N-terminal kinase (JNK) and ERK pathways are required for LMP1-induced suppression of Cabin1 at the transcriptional level. Chromatin immunoprecipitation assays further confirm that the JNK-activated transcription factor AP-1 mediates the LMP1-induced down-regulation of Cabin1 gene expression. LMP1 knockdown also increases the resistance of xenograph tumors to cisplatin in mice, therefore confirming the relevance of our findings in vivo. This study reveals the molecular mechanism underlying the pro-apoptotic activity of LMP1 during cisplatin-based NPC chemotherapy.

Lifetime risk of distinct upper aerodigestive tract cancers and consumption of alcohol, betel and cigarette.

Hsu WL, Chien YC, Chiang CJ, Yang HI, Lou PJ, Wang CP, Yu KJ, You SL, Wang LY, Chen SY, Yang CS, Chen CJ.Author information Genomics Research Center, Academia Sinica, Taipei, Taiwan.AbstractThe cancer of upper aerodigestive tract (UADT) is a common cancers in the world. But its lifetime risk by consumption of alcohol, betel and cigarettes remain to be elucidated. This study aimed to estimate lifetime risk of distinct UADT cancers and assess their associations with alcohol, betel and cigarette consumption. Three cohorts of 25,611 men were enrolled in 1982-1992 in Taiwan. The history of alcohol, betel and cigarette consumption was enquired through questionnaire interview. Newly-developed UADT cancers were ascertained through computerized linkage with national cancer registry profile. Lifetime (30-80 years old) risk and multivariate-adjusted hazard ratio (HRadj ) of distinct UADT cancers by alcohol, betel and cigarette consumption were estimated. A total of 269 pathologically confirmed cases of UADT cancers were newly-diagnosed during 472,096 person-years of follow-up. The lifetime risk of UADT cancer was 9.42% and 1.65% for betel chewers and non-chewers, 3.22% and 1.21% for cigarette smokers and non-smokers, and 4.77% and 1.85% for alcohol drinkers and non-drinkers. The HRadj (95% confidence interval) of developing UADT cancer was 3.36 (2.51-4.49), 2.02 (1.43-2.84), 1.90 (1.46-2.49), respectively, for the consumption of betel, cigarette and alcohol. Alcohol, betel and cigarette had different effect on cancers at various anatomical sites of UADT. The cancer risk from the mouth, pharynx, esophagus to larynx increased for alcohol and cigarette consumption, but decreased for betel consumption. Alcohol, betel and cigarette consumption are independent risk predictors for distinct UADT cancers. © 2014 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.
