S100A6 inhibits MDM2 to suppress breast cancer growth and enhance sensitivity to chemotherapy.

ABSTRACT:

Background

S100A6 and murine double minute 2 (MDM2) are important cancer-related molecules. A previous study identified an interaction between S100A6 and MDM2 by size exclusion chromatography and surface plasmon resonance experiments. The present study investigated whether S100A6 could bind to MDM2 in vivo and further explored its functional implication.

Methods

Co-immunoprecipitation, glutathione-S-transferase pull-down assay, and immunofluorescence were performed to determine the in vivo interaction between S100A6 and MDM2. Cycloheximide pulse-chase assay and ubiquitination assay were performed to clarify the mechanism by which S100A6 downregulated MDM2. In addition, clonogenic assay, WST-1 assay, and flow cytometry of apoptosis and the cell cycle were performed and a xeno
