Cancer cell radioresistance is the primary cause of decreased curability non–small lung cancer (NSCLC) observed in patients receiving definitive radiotherapy (RT). Following RT, a set microenvironmental stress responses triggered, including senescence. However, senescence often ignored designing effective strategies to resolve radioresistance. Herein, we identify senescence-like characteristics cancer-associated fibroblasts (CAFs) after RT and clarify formidable ability CAFs promoting NSCLC...
Background Although immune checkpoint blockade (ICB) has been proven to achieve a persistent therapeutic response in various tumor types, only 20%–40% of patients benefit from this treatment. Radiotherapy (RT) can enhance immunogenicity and improve the ICB response, but outcome achieved by combining these two modalities remains clinically unsatisfactory. We previously uncovered that lysine-specific demethylase 4C (KDM4C) is regulator radiosensitivity lung cancer. However, role KDM4C...
The microRNA miR-138 is dysregulated in several human cancers, but the underlying mechanism remains largely unknown. Here, we report that commonly underexpressed nasopharyngeal carcinoma (NPC) specimens and NPC cell lines. ectopic expression of dramatically suppressed proliferation colony formation vitro inhibited tumorigenesis vivo. Moreover, identified cyclin D1 (CCND1) gene as a novel direct target miR-138. In consistent with knocked-down CCND1, overexpression growth cycle progression...
Abstract Background The cyclin-dependent kinase 7 (CDK7) subunit of TFIIH regulates RNA polymerase-II-based transcription and promotes tumor progression. However, the mechanisms involved in CDK7-mediated immune evasion are unclear non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). Methods silencing pharmacologic inhibitors were used to evaluate functions CDK7/p38α/MYC/PD-L1 axis proliferation antiPD-1 therapy resistance. Flow cytometry was performed detect status microenvironment after CDK7 inhibition...
Abstract Background NEK2, a serine/threonine kinase involved in mitosis, has been found to function chromosome instability, tumor progression and metastasis, but its role cervical cancer radioresistance remains unknown. Methods We detected the protein levels of NEK2 carcinoma tissues paired paracarcinoma by immunohistochemistry. The roles oncogenesis were examined using cell growth colony formation assays, EdU assay, apoptosis assay as well vivo mouse model. γ-H2AX Rad51 foci formation,...
Abstract UBE2O, an E2/E3 hybrid ubiquitin-protein ligase, has been implicated in the regulation of adipogenesis, erythroid differentiation, and tumor proliferation. However, its role cancer radioresistance remains completely unknown. Here, we uncover that UBE2O interacts targets Mxi1 for ubiquitination degradation at K46 residue. Furthermore, show genetical or pharmacological blockade impairs progression lung vitro vivo, these effects can be restored by inhibition. Moreover, demonstrate is...
Radioresistance is regarded as the main barrier to effective radiotherapy in lung cancer. However, underlying mechanisms of radioresistance remain elusive. Here, we show that lysine-specific demethylase 4C (KDM4C) overexpressed and correlated with poor prognosis cancer patients. We provide evidence genetical or pharmacological inhibition KDM4C impairs tumorigenesis vitro vivo. Moreover, uncover upregulates TGF-β2 expression by directly reducing H3K9me3 level at promoter then activates...
Radioresistance is regarded as the main cause of local recurrence and distant metastasis in non-small cell lung cancer. However, underlying mechanisms radioresistance remains incompletely understood. In this study, we find that arginine methyltransferase PRMT5 interacts with methylates Mxi1, which promotes binding β-Trcp ligase to facilitating ubiquitination degradation Mxi1 Furthermore, genetic blockade impairs DNA damage repair enhances cancer radiosensitivity vitro vivo, these phenotypes...
Abstract Radioresistance is a major constraint on the efficacy of lung cancer radiotherapy, but its mechanism has not been fully elucidated. Here, we found that FBXO22 was aberrantly highly expressed in and knockdown increased radiosensitivity cells. Mechanistically, promoted Rad51 gene transcription by increasing level FOXM1 at promoter, thereby inducing formation radioresistance. Furthermore, deguelin, potential inhibitor FBXO22, enhanced an FBXO22/Rad51-dependent manner safely tolerated...
Radioresistance is one of the main reasons for recurrence and metastasis non-small cell lung cancer. Cyclin Y has been implicated in various cellular processes such as growth, proliferation, autophagy, tumor progression. However, function regulatory mechanism cancer radioresistance remain poorly understood. In this study, we find that overexpressed correlates with poor prognosis. Furthermore, knockdown results inhibited growth increases DNA damage, impairs damage repair, enhances...

Cyclin-dependent kinases (CDKs) are the catalytic subunits of a family mammalian heterodimeric serine/threonine that play critical roles in control cell-cycle progression, transcription, and neuronal functions. However, functions, substrates, regulation many CDKs poorly understood. To systematically investigate these features CDKs, we conducted proteomic analysis CDK identified their associated protein complexes two different cell lines using modified SAINT (Significance Analysis...
