Nuclear receptor binding SET domain protein 1 promotes epithelial-mesenchymal transition in paclitaxel-resistant breast cancer cells via regulating nuclear factor kappa B and F-box and leucine-rich repeat protein 11.

ABSTRACT: Breast cancer (BC) is regarded as the major cause of cancer-associated deaths in women. Paclitaxel exerts a critical impact on the chemotherapy of BC, but the resistance to paclitaxel becomes a great obstacle in treating the disease. It is reported that noncoding RNA nuclear receptor binding SET domain protein 1 (NSD1) plays a significant role in drug resistance; however, the special role of NSD1 in paclitaxel-resistant BC is unclear. Human BC cell line MCF-7 was used to establish paclitaxel-resistant BC cells (MCF-7/PR). Reverse transcription quantitative polymerase chain reaction (RT-qPCR) displayed that NSD1 and F-box and leucine-rich repeat protein 11 (FBXL11) were highly expressed in BC tissues. Western blotting was utilized for protein level assessment. Cell counting kit-8 (CCK-8), T
