A microarray-based transcriptomic analysis of oral squamous cell carcinoma cell lines with differing responses to cisplatin
Ontology highlight
ABSTRACT: Cisplatin is a commonly used platinum-based chemotherapeutic agent for oral squamous cell carcinoma (OSCC). However, cisplatin efficacy is limited by drug toxicity and the resistance capabilities of cancer cells. Reduced efficacy of anticancer therapy has been recently attributed to the presence of therapy-insensitive subpopulations in heterogeneous tumours, known as cancer stem-like cells (CSCs). CSCs comprise a tumour-forming subpopulation of cells that exhibit stem cell-like features, including the abilities to self-renew and turn into progenitor and differentiated cancer cell lineages, and enhanced therapeutic resistance capabilities, thus driving the continual growth and survival of tumours. Overall, this work was conducted to provide the transcriptomes of the OSCC cell lines with differing responses to cisplatin using a microarray analysis. The data may be analyzed alongside other similar datasets to explore the underlying cisplatin resistance mechanisms in OSCC.
