| Abstract | Background Transforming growth factor-β (TGF-β) signaling is a double-edged sword in cancer development and progression. TGF-β signaling plays a tumor suppressive role during the early stages of tumor development but promotes tumor progression in later stages. We have previously identified various mutations of TGF-β receptor II (TβRII) in human oral squamous cell carcinoma (OSCC) samples. In the present study we analyzed I227T/N236D mutation of TβRII, which was detected in the metastatic lymph node of an OSCC patient. Methods The effect of I227T/N236D TβRII mutation on transcriptional activities was measured using DR26 cells, which lack functional TβRII. HSC2 human OSCC cells stably expressing wild-type and I227T/N236D mutant TβRII were generated and used to examine the effect of I227T/N236D TβRII mutation on xenograft tumor growth, in vitro cell proliferation, apoptosis, migration, and invasion. Results The I227T/N236D mutation of TβRII upregulated TGF-β signaling and promoted xenograft tumor growth when compared with the wild-type, without affecting the in vitro proliferative capacities. To delineate the differences in proliferative capacities in vivo and in vitro, the apoptotic and survival signals were analyzed following curcumin treatment. Concomitant with apoptotic induction, epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) activation was observed upon curcumin treatment, which was further activated in I227T/N236D mutant transfectant cells when compared with wild-type cells. Enhanced EGFR activation correlated with cell survival and apoptotic resistance. Enhanced migratory and invasive capabilities of I227T/N236D mutant cells also depended on EGFR signaling. Conclusions These results suggest that enhanced EGFR signaling via upregulated TGF-β signaling shifted the balance toward survival and promoted cell migration and invasion in I227T/N236D mutant cells, elucidating the role of I227T/N236D mutation of TβRII in OSCC progression. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
Ministry of Education, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT), has sponsored and funded the National Digital Library of India (NDLI) project.
