B is an Important Modulator of the Altered Gene Expression Profile and Malignant Phenotype in Squamous Cell Carcinoma

We reported previously that transcription factor nuclear factor (NF)-
B is constitutively activated in human and murine squamous cell carcinomas (SCCs). The role of NF-
B in the cumulative changes in gene expression with transformation and progression of the murine SCC Pam 212 and after switching off NF-
B by a dominant negative inhibitor
B mutant (I
B
M) was explored by profiling with a 15,000-element cDNA micoarrray. Remarkably, NF-
B modulated the expression of >60% of the 308 genes differentially expressed between normal keratinocytes and metastatic SCCs. NF-
B directly or indirectly modulated expression of programs of genes functionally linked to proliferation, apoptosis, adhesion, and angiogenesis. Among these, changes in expression of cyclin D1, inhibitor of apoptosis-1, mutant Trp53, and ß-catenin detected with modulation of NF-
B by microarray were confirmed by Western and Northern blot. NF-
B DNA binding motifs were detected in the promoter of
63% of genes showing increased expression and 33% of the genes showing decreased expression. The ACTACAG motif implicated in the NF-
B-dependent down-regulation of mRNA expression of MyoD and Sox9 was detected in the coding portion of about 15% of genes showing increased or decreased expression. Inactivation of NF-
B inhibited malignant phenotypic features including proliferation, cell survival, migration, angiogenesis, and tumorigenesis. These results provide evidence that NF-
B is an important modulator of gene expression programs that contribute to the malignant phenotype of SCC.
