JMJD5 inhibits lung cancer progression by facilitating EGFR proteasomal degradation.

ABSTRACT: Aberrant activation of epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) signaling is closely related to the development of non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). However, targeted EGFR therapeutics such as tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKIs) face the challenge of EGFR mutation-mediated resistance. Here, we showed that the reduced JmjC domain-containing 5 (JMJD5) expression is negatively associated with EGFR stability and NSCLC progression. Mechanically, JMJD5 cooperated with E3 ligase HUWE1 to destabilize EGFR and EGFR TKI-resistant mutants for proteasomal degradation, thereby inhibiting NSCLC growth and promoting TKI sensitivity. Furthermore, we identified that JMJD5 can be transported into recipient cells via extracellular vesicles, thereby inhibiting the growth of NSCLC. Together, our findings demons
