USP9X-mediated REV1 deubiquitination promotes lung cancer radioresistance via the action of REV1 as a Rad18 molecular scaffold for cystathionine γ-lyase.

ABSTRACT:

Background

Radioresistance is a key clinical constraint on the efficacy of radiotherapy in lung cancer patients. REV1 DNA directed polymerase (REV1) plays an important role in repairing DNA damage and maintaining genomic stability. However, its role in the resistance to radiotherapy in lung cancer is not clear. This study aims to clarify the role of REV1 in lung cancer radioresistance, identify the intrinsic mechanisms involved, and provide a theoretical basis for the clinical translation of this new target for lung cancer treatment.

Methods

The effect of targeting REV1 on the radiosensitivity was verified by in vivo and in vitro experiments. RNA sequencing (RNA-seq) combined with nontargeted metabolomics analysis was used to explore the downstream targets of REV1. Liquid ch
