Abstract
Background: Previous studies have proposed that the transcriptional regulatory factor tripartite motif containing 29 (TRIM29) is involved in carcinogenesis via binding with nucleic acid. TRIM29 is confirmed to be highly expressed when the cancer cells acquire therapy-resistant properties. We noticed that TRIM29 levels were significantly increased in anlotinib-resistant NCIH1975 (NCI-H1975/AR) cells via mining data information from gene expression omnibus (GEO) gene microarray (GSE142031; log2 fold change > 1, p < 0.05).
Objective: Our study aimed to investigate the function of TRIM29 on the resistance to anlotinib in non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) cells, including NCI-H1975 and A549 cells.
Methods: Real-time RT-PCR and western blot were used to detect TRIM29 expression in anlotinib- resistant NSCLC (NSCLC/AR) cells. Apoptosis were determined through flow cytometry, acridine orange/ethidium bromide staining as well as western blot. ELISA was used to measure the content of C-X3-C motif chemokine ligand 1. Co-Immunoprecipitation assay was performed to verify the interaction between TRIM29 and RAD50 double-strand break repair protein (RAD50).
Results: TRIM29 expression was shown to be elevated in the cytoplasm and nucleus of NSCLC/ AR cells compared to normal NSCLC cells. Next, we demonstrated that TRIM29 knockdown facilitated apoptosis and enhanced the sensitivity to anlotinib in NSCLC/AR cells. Based on the refined results citing from the database BioGRID, it was proved that TRIM29 interacted with RAD50. Herein, RAD50 overexpression diminished the pro-apoptotic effect induced by silencing TRIM29 in anlotinib-resistant A549 (A549/AR) cells.
Conclusion: Finally, we concluded that the increased sensitivity to anlotinib in NSCLC/AR cells was achieved by knocking down TRIM29, besides, the positive effects of TRIM29 knockdown were attributed to the promotion of apoptosis via binding to RAD50 in NSCLC/AR cell nucleus. Therefore, TRIM29 might become a potential target for overcoming anlotinib resistance in NSCLC treatment.
