BACKGROUND: Human papillomavirus (HPV) is a causative agent for tonsillar and base of tongue squamous cell carcinoma (TSCC/BOTSCC), as well as for cervical cancer. Premalignant stages in cervical cancer have been studied extensively, while little is known about premalignant stages in TSCC/BOTSCC and the role of HPV. Here we analyzed differences in gene and protein expression between high-grade dysplasia and invasive cancer in both HPV-positive (HPV+ ) and HPV-negative (HPV- ) TSCC/BOTSCC.
METHODS: High-grade dysplasia and invasive carcinoma were laser microdissected from HPV+ and HPV- TSCC/BOTSCC tumor sections. Differential gene expression was studied utilizing nanoString RNA-panels and genes of interest were validated on the protein level by immunohistochemistry.
RESULTS: Forty genes in the HPV+ tumors showed significantly different expression between high-grade dysplasia and invasive cancer and 33 genes in the HPV- tumors. Five out of the nine most significant pathways showed similar increased activity in invasive cancer as compared to high-grade dysplasia in both HPV+ and HPV- tumors. Lastly, significant differences in protein expression was confirmed for SPARC, psoriasin, type I collagen and galectin-1 in both HPV+ and HPV- tumors.
CONCLUSIONS: This is to our knowledge the first study disclosing differences and similarities in gene expression between dysplastic and invasive HPV+ and HPV- TSCC/BOTSCC.
