Abstract A number of genetic variants have been associated with cancer occurrence, however it may be the acquired somatic mutations (SMs) that drive cancer development. This study investigates the potential SMs and related genetic variants associated with the occurrence and development of head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSCC). We identified several SMs in NOTCH1 from whole-exome sequencing and validated them in a 13-year cohort of 128 HNSCC patients using a high-resolution melting analysis and resequencing. Patients who have NOTCH1 SMs show higher 5-year relapse-free recurrence (P = 0.0013) and lower survival proportion (P = 0.0447) when the risk-associated SMs were analysed by Cox proportional hazard models. Interestingly, the NOTCH1 gene rs139994842 that shares linkage with SMs is associated with HNSCC risk (OR = 3.46), increasing when SMs in NOTCH1 are involved (OR = 7.74), and furthermore when there are SMs in conjunction to betel quid chewing (OR = 32.11), which is a related independent environmental risk factor after adjusting for substances use (alcohol, betel quid, cigarettes) and age. The findings indicate that betel quid chewing is highly associated with NOTCH1 SMs (especially with changes in EGF-like domains), and that rs139994842 may potentially serve as an early predictive and prognostic biomarker for the occurrence and development of HNSCC.

Latar belakang: Karsinoma sel skuamosa kepala dan leher merupakan salah satu kanker terseringdi seluruh dunia. Pendekatan pengobatan agresif dan multidisiplin telah dilakukan, namun belum adapeningkatan yang signifikan dalam kelangsungan hidup 5 tahun, selama 20 tahun terakhir. Kegagalanpengobatan terjadi dalam bentuk kekambuhan lokoregional, metastasis jauh, dan/atau tumor primer kedua.Berbagai penanda molekular tumor telah diteliti untuk mengetahui potensinya dalam memprediksi hasilpenyakit atau respon terhadap terapi.Tujuan: Mengetahui hubungan ekspresi protein p53, Bcl-2, c-Myc,dan MMP-9 berdasarkan gambaran klinikopatologis karsinoma sel skuamosa kepala dan leher di RumahSakit dr. Zainoel Abidin.Metode: Studi menggunakan desain cross sectional. Sampel terdiri dari 60blok parafin karsinoma sel skuamosa kepala dan leher. Prosedur pewarnaan imunohistokimia dilakukandengan menggunakan antibodi monoklonal terhadap p53, Bcl-2, c-Myc, dan MMP-9. Ekspresi proteinp53, Bcl-2, c-Myc, dan MMP-9 dianalisis secara imunohistokimia pada karsinoma sel skuamosa kepaladan leher kemudian hasilnya dihubungkan dengan parameter klinikopatologis seperti usia, jenis kelamin,lokasi tumor, diferensiasi tumor, metastasis kelenjar getah bening dan stadium tumor, kemudian dianalisisstatistik dengan Chi square.Hasil: Hasil penelitian menunjukkan terdapat hubungan bermakna tingkatekspresi p53 dengan metastasis lokal (p=0,021) dan ada hubungan bermakna tingkat ekspresi MMP-9dengan lokasi tumor (p=0,026). Tidak terdapat hubungan ekspresi p53, Bcl-2, cMyc, dan MMP-9 terhadapusia, jenis kelamin, stadium tumor, diferensiasi histologi, tingkat T, N, dan metastasis jauh.Kesimpulan:Ada hubungan ekpresi p53 dengan metastasis kelenjar limfe regional dan ekspresi MMP-9 dengan lokasitumor pada karsinoma sel skuamosa kepala dan leher. Kata kunci: Karsinoma sel skuamosa kepala dan leher, p53, Bcl-2, c-Myc, MMP-9 ABSTRACTBackground: Head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSCC) is one of the most commoncancers world wide. Although aggressive and multidisciplinary approach to the treatment has been done,there is no significant improvement in 5-year survival in the last 20 years. Treatment failure occurredin the form of locoregional recurrence, distant metastasis, and/or a second primary tumor. A variety oftumor molecular markers have been studied to determine their potential in predicting disease outcome orresponse to the therapy. Purpose: To investigate correlation p53, Bcl-2, c-Myc, and MMP-9 expressionto clinicopathologic parameter in head and neck squamous cell carcinoma patient in dr. Zainoel Abidinhospital. Methods: Cross sectional design study. The sample was consisted of 60 paraffin blocks ofhead and neck squamous cell carcinoma. Procedure of immunohistochemical staining used monoclonalantibodies against p53, Bcl-2, c-Myc, and MMP-9. Expression of p53 protein, Bcl-2, c-Myc, and MMP-9were analyzed by immunohistochemistry in head and neck squamous cell carcinoma. Then, the results were linked to clinicopathologic parameters such as age, sex, tumor location, tumor differentiation,lymph node metastasis and tumor stage, and statistically analyzed with Chi square. Results: The resultsshowed there were significant correlation between p53 expression level with local metastasis (p=0,021)and significant correlation of MMP-9 expression levels with tumor location (p=0,026). There were norelationship of p53, Bcl-2, cMyc and MMP-9 expressions based on age, sex, stage tumor, histologicdifferentiation, level of T, N, and distant metastases. Conclusion: There were relationships between p53expression with local metastasis and MMP-9 expression with tumor location in head and neck squamouscell carcinoma. Keywords: Head and neck squamous cell carcinoma, p53, Bcl-2, c-Myc, MMP-9
