Abstract Background/objective Accumulated evidence has demonstrated that aerobic glycolysis serves as a regulator of tumor cell growth, invasion, and angiogenesis. Herein, we explored the role of protein disulfide isomerase family 6 (PDIA6) in the aerobic glycolysis and the progression of oral squamous cell carcinoma (OSCC). Methods The expression pattern of PDIA6 in OSCC tissues was determined by qPCR and western blotting. Lentivirus and small interfering RNAs (siRNAs) were introduced into cells to upregulate and downregulate PDIA6 expression. CCK-8, flow cytometry, transwell, and xenotransplantation models were applied to detect cell proliferation, apoptosis, migration, invasion, and tumorigenesis, respectively. Results A high expression pattern of PDIA6 was observed in OSCC tissues, which was closely associated with lower overall survival and malignant clinical features in OSCC. Compared with the control group, overexpression of PDIA6 induced significant enhancements in cell growth, migration, invasiveness, and tumorigenesis and decreased cell apoptosis, while knockdown of PDIA6 caused opposite results. In addition, overexpression of PDIA6 increased glucose consumption, lactate production, and ATP level in OSCC cells. Conclusion This study demonstrated that PDIA6 expression was elevated in OSCC tissues, and overexpression of it promoted aerobic glycolysis and OSCC progression.

Oral squamous cell carcinoma (OSCC) is the most common malignant tumor in the head and neck, and radiotherapy is the main approach for this disease, while irradiation resistance is a huge challenge that influences radiosensitivity. This study aims to determine the role and function of miR-29a-3p and ADAM12 in the radiosensitivity of OSCC cells. The expression pattern of ADAM12 in OSCC cells was searched in TCGA database. The binding of miR-29a-3p and ADAM12 was predicted by Starbase and verified using dual luciferase reporter gene assay. The RNA or protein expressions of miR-29a-3p and ADAM12 were measured by RT-qPCR or western blot. OSCC cell lines were treated by various γ-ray irradiation dosages before the alteration on miR-29a-3p expression and on the cell viability, proliferation, migration and cell apoptosis was detected. ADAM12 was highly expressed in OSCC cells, whose expression in resistant cells was positively correlated with irradiation dosage. Overexpression of ADAM12 in OSCC cells lead to increased cell proliferation and migration ability as well as inhibited cell apoptosis. miRNAs potentially binding ADAM12 in PITA, microT, miRmap and targetscan were screened, among which miR-29a-3p had the maximum differential expression levels in OSCC cells determined by RT-qPCR. Overexpression of miR-29a-3p resulted in suppressed cell viability, proliferation, migration ability and increased cell apoptosis, while this expression pattern can be partially counteracted by ADAM12 overexpression in OSCC cells. miR-29a-3p through targeting and inhibiting AMDM12 enhances the radiosensitivity of OSCC cells.
