Abstract
Imatinib resistance is a major obstacle to the successful treatment of gastrointestinal stromal tumors (GIST). Long non-coding RNAs (LncRNAs) have been identified as important regulatory factors in chemotherapy resistance. This study aimed to identify key lncRNAs involved in imatinib resistance of GISTs. First, MSC-AS1 was found to be upregulated in imatinib-resistant GIST tissues and imatinib-resistant GIST cells. Cellular experiments demonstrated that MSC-AS1 overexpression decreased imatinib sensitivity of GIST cells, evidenced by increased cell survival, colony formation, migration, and invasion. Moreover, suppression of MSC-AS1 improved the imatinib resistance of imatinib-resistant GIST cells. Furthermore, MSC-AS1 upregulated the expression of FNDC1 and Anillin via sponging miR-200b-3p, activated the phosphatidylinositol-3-kinase-AKT signaling pathway, and thereby driving imatinib resistance in vitro and in vivo. Overall, this study elucidates the crucial role and mechanism of MSC-AS1 in the imatinib resistance of GIST, providing the potential therapeutic strategy for overcoming the imatinib resistance of GIST.
期刊介绍:
Human Cell is the official English-language journal of the Japan Human Cell Society. The journal serves as a forum for international research on all aspects of the human cell, encompassing not only cell biology but also pathology, cytology, and oncology, including clinical oncology. Embryonic stem cells derived from animals, regenerative medicine using animal cells, and experimental animal models with implications for human diseases are covered as well.
Submissions in any of the following categories will be considered: Research Articles, Cell Lines, Rapid Communications, Reviews, and Letters to the Editor. A brief clinical case report focusing on cellular responses to pathological insults in human studies may also be submitted as a Letter to the Editor in a concise and short format.
Not only basic scientists but also gynecologists, oncologists, and other clinical scientists are welcome to submit work expressing new ideas or research using human cells.
