To evaluate the anti-invasive effect of ethanol extracts of rhizome of Dryopteris crassirhizoma (EEDC) in matrix invasion and formation of functional invadopodia and to determine the anti-tumor effect of EEDC in a mouse model of mandibular invasion by gingival squamous cell carcinoma (SCC).The rhizome of D crassirhizoma was extracted in ethanol. The anti-invasive effect of EEDC was analyzed with a Matrigel-coated transwell invasion and 3D culture system. Crucial factors related to the control of cancer cell invasion by EEDC were determined using a human protease array. Molecular evidence supporting the anti-invasive effect of EEDC in oral SCC (OSCC) cells used an invadopodia-mediated extracellular matrix (ECM) degradation; an in vivo athymic mouse model was also provided.EEDC treatment (10 µg/mL) suppressed transwell migration and invasion of HSC-3 OSCC cells without cytotoxicity. Decreased levels of matrix metalloprotease (MMP)-7, kalikrein 10, cathepsin V, MMP-2, and cathepsin D were also found in EEDC-treated HSC-3 cells based on human protease array. The anti-invasive effects of EEDC involved the suppression of invadopodia-mediated ECM degradation via inhibition of globular-actin elongation. The anti-invasive effect resulting from disturbance of functional invadopodia formation by EEDC was observed even at a low concentration of 5 µg/mL. The phosphorylation of cortactin involved in functional invadopodia formation was decreased at EEDC concentrations that inhibited invadopodia formation. The anti-tumor effect of EEDC was also observed in a mouse xenograft model. Administration of EEDC resulted in inhibition of tumor growth and progression.EEDC represents a potential anti-invasive and anti-tumor agent in cancer control.
