HNF1A regulates oxaliplatin resistance in pancreatic cancer by targeting 53BP1.

ABSTRACT: DNA double‑strand break repair is critically involved in oxaliplatin resistance in pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC). Hepatocyte nuclear factor 1 homeobox A (HNF1A) has received increased attention regarding its role in cancer progression. The present study explored the role of HNF1A in oxaliplatin resistance in PDAC. The results revealed that HNF1A expression was negatively associated with oxaliplatin chemoresistance in PDAC tissues and cell lines. HNF1A inhibition promoted the proliferation, colony formation and stemness of PDAC cells, and suppressed their apoptosis. Furthermore, HNF1A inhibition switched nonhomologous end joining to homologous recombination, thereby enhancing genomic stability and oxaliplatin resistance. Mechanistically, HNF1A transcriptionally activates p53‑bindi
