Abstract: Objective: To investigate the effects of EMP1 on the proliferation and invasion of oral squamous cancer cells(OSCC) in vitro. Methods: pEGFP-N1-EMP1expression vectors were constructed and transfected stably into Tb3.1 cell. Tb3.1-pEGFP-N1-EMP1 cell, wild type Tb3.1 cell and Tb3.1-pEGFP-N1 cell were tested using MTT to assay cell proliferation. Cell cycle and invasion were analyzed by flow cytometry and invasion assay, respectively. One-way ANOVA was adopted to compare among groups. Results: Compared with wild type Tb3.1 cell and Tb3.1-pEGFP-N1 cell, the growth of Tb3.1-pEGFP-N1-EMP1 cell was inhibited, and the proportion of cells in S and G2-M phase and the number of invasive cells were reduced in Tb3.1-pEGFP-N1-EMP1 cell (P<0.05). Conclusion: EMP1 may negatively regulate the proliferation, migration and invasion of tumor cells in the oncogenesis and development of OSCC.
