Brother of regulator of imprinted sites inhibits cisplatin-induced DNA damage in non-small cell lung cancer.

ABSTRACT: Cisplatin (DDP) chemotherapy is the primary modality of treatment for non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). However, due to the occurrence of DDP resistance, only a limited number of patients benefit from this treatment regimen. Brother of Regulator of Imprinted Sites (BORIS) is expressed elevated in NSCLC. Whether BORIS is involved in the DDP resistance of NSCLC is currently undetermined. The association between BORIS expression and overall survival rate of 156 patients with NSCLC who received DDP chemotherapy was analyzed in the present study. In order to investigate the function of BORIS in DDP chemotherapy, BORIS was silenced or overexpressed in four NSCLC cell lines. The cell viabilities, apoptosis and DNA damage induced by DDP were evaluated in these cell lines. In additi
