BACKGROUND/AIM: The focal adhesion kinase (FAK)/SRC phosphorylation cascade and its downstream target paxillin have been implicated in malignant transformation, tumor growth and progression, together with metastasis. The present study aimed to evaluate the clinical significance of concomitant FAK/SRC and p-paxillin expression in mobile tongue squamous cell carcinoma (SCC).
MATERIALS AND METHODS: FAK, SRC and phospho-paxillin expression in 48 mobile tongue SCC tissue samples was assessed immunohistochemically and analyzed with respect to clinicopathological characteristics and patient survival.
RESULTS: Concomitant high FAK/SRC expression was significantly associated with high grade of tumor differentiation (p=0.048) and longer disease-free patient survival (log-rank test, p=0.019). High p-paxillin expression was significantly associated with greater depth of invasion (p=0.002), lymph node metastasis (p=0.048) and poorer disease-free patient survival (log-rank test, p=0.021; Cox-regression analysis, p=0.031).
CONCLUSION: The present study provides evidence that FAK/SRC and paxillin play a role in the pathophysiological aspects of mobile tongue SCC and could constitute therapeutic targets.
