Effects of resveratrol on oral squamous cell carcinoma (OSCC) cells in vitro

Menée à l'aide d'une lignée cellulaire de carcinome épidermoïde de la cavité buccale, cette étude analyse les effets chimiopréventifs du resvératrol sur l'adhésion cellulaire, la migration et l'invasion des cellules tumorales

Purpose : Resveratrol has been reported to exhibit anti-cancer activity. The aim of this study was to examine the effects of resveratrol on the adhesion, migration, and invasion of the oral squamous cell carcinoma (OSCC) cell line KB cell in vitro. Methods : The effect of resveratrol on KB cell adhesion was evaluated by a MTT colorimetric assay, whereas its effects on cell migration and invasion were assessed by a Transwell assay. Results : The MTT assay revealed that the adhesion of KB cells treated with 100

μmol resveratrol for 1 or 2 h was decreased by 49.92 and 58.21 %, respectively (P < 0.05). In the Transwell assay, the migratory and invasive abilities of KB cells treated with 100 μmol resveratrol were decreased by 43.98 and 37.69 %, respectively. Conclusions

:

Resveratrol inhibited the adhesion, migration, and invasion of OSCC cells in vitro, suggesting that it might serve as a chemopreventive agent for reducing the invasion and metastasis of OSCC.
