KAT8 enhances the resistance of lung cancer cells to cisplatin by acetylation of PKM2.

ABSTRACT: Cisplatin (CDDP)-based chemotherapy resistance is a major challenge for lung cancer treatment. PKM2 is the rate-limiting enzyme of glycolysis, which is associated with CDDP resistance. KAT8 is an acetyltransferase that regulates lung cancer progression. Thus, we aimed to explore whether KAT8 regulates PKM2 acetylation to participate in CDDP resistance. CDDP resistance was analyzed by CCK-8, flow cytometry and western blotting. To explore the regulation of KAT8 on PKM2, coimmunoprecipitation (Co-IP), immunofluorescence and immunoprecipitation followed by western blotting were performed. Glycolysis was determined using glucose consumption, lactate production, ATP level detection kits and extracellular acidification rate assay. We observed that KAT8 levels were downregulated in CDDP-treated A
