Staphylococcus aureus induces COX-2-dependent proliferation and malignant transformation in oral keratinocytes

Abstract: The COX-2/PGE 2 axis can play roles in mediating the progression of tumor. COX-2 induction was observed in oral cancer. In our previous study, we found Staphylococcus aureus, a pathogen prevalent in oral cancer, can activate the COX-2/PGE 2 pathway in human oral keratinocyte (HOK) cells. Here, we investigated the proliferation of HOK cells affected by COX-2 induction and the role of COX-2 induction in the malignant transformation of HOK cells. We found S. aureus was able to facilitate HOK cell proliferation th… Show more

“…Another recent study has shown that infection of HOK cells with S. aureus can facilitate increased cell proliferation through upregulation of COX2 and a concomitant increase in cyclin D1 with a suppression of p16. These changes resulted in colony formation growth as a measure of malignancy [ 49 ].…”

“…Inflammation affects the occurrence and development of cancer through different pathways. 32 , 33 As evidence has accumulated linking inflammation with cancer development, additional indicators of cancer-related inflammation have been discovered. Cancer patients with higher SII or lower LCR or LCS have significantly worse prognoses than those with lower SII or higher LCR or LCS.…”

“…In addition, inflammatory cytokines were produced by the activated macrophages (Xavier & Podolsky, 2007). In oral keratinocytes, Staphylococcus spp., especially S. aureus , could induce infection‐associated malignant transformation of oral epitheliums via Cox2 activation (Wang et al., 2019). Staphylococcus aureus can also upregulate Cox2 expression and prostaglandin E2 ( Pge2 ) secretion in human aortic endothelial cells and induce Pge2 /interleukin 6 ( Il‐6 )/matrix metallopeptidase‐9‐dependent cell migration (Tsai et al., 2018).…”
