The aim of the present study was to investigate the role of sentrin/small ubiquitin-like modifier (SUMO)-specific protease 5 (SENP5) in oral squamous cell carcinoma (OSCC), as the overexpression of SENP5 has been observed in 31 OSCC tissue specimens. CAL-27 OSCC cells were used for in vitro measurements. The distribution of SENP5 was visualized using immunohistochemistry and H2O2-induced oxidative stress, and the effects of SENP-small interfering RNA on SENP5 were analyzed via western blotting. The apoptotic rates of the CAL-27 cells during oxidative stress and SENP5 silencing were estimated using flow-cytometry, and the mitochondrial structures were analyzed using a mitochondria tracker. The SENP5 protein was localized in the nuclei and cytosols of the CAL-27 cells, and incubation with 100 mu m H2O2 for >1 h led to its stabilization. Incubation with H2O2 alone had no effect on the CAL-27 cells, however, a combination of H2O2 and SENP5 silencing led to enhanced apoptotic rates (P<0.001). Analysis of the mitochondrial structures revealed that H2O2 alone enhanced mitochondrial network formation, whereas the combination of H2O2 and SENP5 silencing led to mitochondrial fragmentation in the CAL-27 cells. The overexpression of SENP5 partly localized in the cytosol of the OSCC cells. Mild oxidative stress stabilized the SENP5 protein in the CAL-27 cells, and only the combination of SENP5 silencing and H2O2 application led to mitochondria fragmentation and a significant increase in cell apoptosis. Therefore, SENP5 protected the OSCC cells from oxidative stress-induced apoptosis.
