The role and mechanism of IFITM1 in developing acquired cisplatin resistance in small cell lung cancer.

ABSTRACT: Platinum-based chemotherapies, historically the cornerstone of first-line treatment for small-cell lung cancer (SCLC), face a major hurdle: the frequent emergence of chemoresistance, notably to cisplatin (CDDP). Current understanding of the mechanisms driving CDDP resistance in SCLC is incomplete. Notably, Interferon inducible transmembrane protein1 (IFITM1) has been identified as a key player in the distant metastasis of SCLC. Analysis of The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA) database revealed that IFITM1 expression is markedly elevated in tumor tissues as compared to that from adjacent normal tissues, correlating with a worse prognosis for patients with SCLC. Our research focused on investigating the role of IFITM1 in the acquisition of cisplatin resistance in SCLC. Further clinical sample anal
