Abstract
MALT1 has been implicated as an upstream regulator of NF-κB signaling in immune cells and tumors. This study determined the regulatory mechanisms and biological functions of MALT1 in non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). In cell culture and orthotopic xenograft models, MALT1 suppression via gene expression interference or protein activity inhibition significantly impaired malignant phenotypes and enhanced radiation sensitivity of NSCLC cells. CSN5, the core subunit of COP9 signalosome, was firstly verified to stabilize MALT1 via disturbing the interaction with E3 ligase FBXO3. Loss of FBXO3 in NSCLC cells reduced MALT1 ubiquitination and promoted its accumulation, which was reversed by CSN5 interference. An association between CSN5/FBXO3/MALT1 regulatory axis and poor prognosis in NSCLC patients was identified. Our findings revealed the detail mechanism of continuous MALT1 activation in NF-κB signaling, highlighting its significance as predictor and potential therapeutic target in NSCLC.
期刊介绍:
Cell Biology and Toxicology (CBT) is an international journal focused on clinical and translational research with an emphasis on molecular and cell biology, genetic and epigenetic heterogeneity, drug discovery and development, and molecular pharmacology and toxicology. CBT has a disease-specific scope prioritizing publications on gene and protein-based regulation, intracellular signaling pathway dysfunction, cell type-specific function, and systems in biomedicine in drug discovery and development. CBT publishes original articles with outstanding, innovative and significant findings, important reviews on recent research advances and issues of high current interest, opinion articles of leading edge science, and rapid communication or reports, on molecular mechanisms and therapies in diseases.
