Summary:To detect the expression of heparanase (HPSE) in oral squamous cell carcinoma (OSCC) with different metastatic potentials and investigate its clinical significance. Transcriptional and translational status of HPSE in OSCC cell lines with different metastatic capacities, primary OSCC samples and their paired metastatic cancer tissues were determined using real-time polymerase chain reaction (PCR) and Western blotting analysis. Immunohistochemistry was used to evaluate HPSE expression in 131 OSCC samples. The correlation between HPSE expression pattern and clinicopathological parameters and clinical outcome in patients with OSCC were analyzed. HPSE level was reduced using HPSE-siRNAs in OSCC cell lines and its impact on cell migration and invasion was measured by scratch assay and matrigel invasion assay. The mRNA and protein levels of HPSE were remarkably up-regulated in OSCC cell lines with highly metastatic capacity ( <0.000 1) and metastatic OSCC tissues ( <0.000 1). The protein levels of HPSE were strongly
