TRIM59/RBPJ positive feedback circuit confers gemcitabine resistance in pancreatic cancer by activating the Notch signaling pathway.

ABSTRACT: Pancreatic cancer (PC) is one of the most lethal malignant tumors that lacks effective treatment, and gemcitabine-based chemoresistance occurs frequently. Therefore, new therapeutic strategies for PC are urgently needed. Tripartite motif containing 59 (TRIM59) plays an important role in breast and lung cancer chemoresistance. However, the association between TRIM59 and gemcitabine resistance in PC remains unclear. We identified TRIM59 as an innovative E3 ubiquitin ligase that activated Notch signaling in PC. TRIM59 levels were increased in PC and positively correlated with poor prognosis and gemcitabine resistance in PC patients. TRIM59 facilitated gemcitabine resistance in PC cells in vitro and in vivo. TRIM59 interacted with recombination signal binding protein for immunoglobulin kappa J
