An TRIM59-CDK6 axis regulates growth and metastasis of lung cancer.

ABSTRACT: Lung cancer (LC) is a devastating malignancy with no effective treatments, due to its complex genomic profile. Using bioinformatics analysis and immunohistochemical of lung carcinoma tissues, we show that TRIM59 as a critical oncoprotein relating to LC proliferation and metastasis. In this study, high TRIM59 expression was significantly correlated with lymph node metastasis, distant metastasis, and tumour stage. Furthermore, up-regulation of TRIM59 expression correlated with poorer outcomes in LC patients. Mechanistically, TRIM59 play a key role in promoting LC growth and metastasis through regulation of extracellular-signal regulated protein kinase (ERK) signalling pathway and epithelial-to-mesenchymal transition (EMT)-markers, as validated by loss-of-function studies.
