Abstract
This study delves into the molecular intricacies of hypopharyngeal squamous cell carcinoma (HSCC), specifically focusing on the pivotal role played by ETS translocation variant 4 (ETV4) in aerobic glycolysis. The objective is to uncover new targets for early diagnosis and treatment of HSCC. ETV4 expression in HSCC tissues was rigorously examined, revealing its association with patient survival. Through comprehensive experimentation, we demonstrated that ETV4 activation promotes HSCC cell proliferation and invasion while inhibiting apoptosis. Furthermore, in vivo experiments confirmed the tumor-promoting effect of ETV4 activation. The study elucidated the binding of ETV4 to the NSUN2 promoter and its influence on PKM2 expression, thereby regulating glycolysis and cellular functions in HSCC.
