Abstract
Background
Cisplatin remains a common chemotherapy drug for lung adenocarcinoma (LUAD) in clinical treatment. Long-term use of cisplatin in patients may lead to acquired drug resistance, resulting in poor prognoses of patients. NEIL3 was a glycosylase-encoding gene highly expressed in LUAD. NEIL3 can repair telomerase DNA damage in the S phase. Nevertheless, there are few reports on whether NEIL3 is involved in cisplatin resistance and its related mechanisms in LUAD.
Methods
The expression of NEIL3 in LUAD patients was analyzed by bioinformatics. The regulator upstream of NEIL3 was predicted via hTFtarget. The possibly involved pathways of NEIL3 were obtained by performing Gene Set Enrichment Analysis. qRT-PCR and western blot were applied to test the expression level of genes and protein LUAD cells. Dual-luciferase assay and chromatin immunoprecipitation (ChIP) assay were conducted to validate the binding relationship between MAZ and NEIL3. Cell function assays were performed to test the DNA damage, cell viability, cell migration and invasion, and cell cycle of LUAD cells in the treatment group.
Results
NEIL3 and its upstream regulatory factor MAZ were highly expressed in LUAD tissue, and NEIL3 was enriched in cell cycle and mismatch repair pathways. Dual-luciferase assay and ChIP assay proved that MAZ could target NEIL3. Cell experiments identified that MAZ/NEIL3 axis could repress DNA damage to advance cisplatin resistance of cancer cells, and foster cell migration and invasion in LUAD.
Conclusion
MAZ-activated NEIL3 could propel the cisplatin resistance in LUAD by repressing DNA damage.
期刊介绍：
Pulmonary Pharmacology and Therapeutics (formerly Pulmonary Pharmacology) is concerned with lung pharmacology from molecular to clinical aspects. The subject matter encompasses the major diseases of the lung including asthma, cystic fibrosis, pulmonary circulation, ARDS, carcinoma, bronchitis, emphysema and drug delivery. Laboratory and clinical research on man and animals will be considered including studies related to chemotherapy of cancer, tuberculosis and infection. In addition to original research papers the journal will include review articles and book reviews.
Research Areas Include:
• All major diseases of the lung
• Physiology
• Pathology
• Drug delivery
• Metabolism
• Pulmonary Toxicology.
