OXA resistance is associated with a number of factors, including abnormal regulation of pyroptosis. It is therefore important to elucidate the abnormal regulatory mechanism underlying pyroptosis. Here, we identified that the circular RNA circPDIA3 played an important role in chemoresistance in CRC. CircPDIA3 could induce chemoresistance in CRC by inhibiting pyroptosis both <em>in vitro</em> and <em>in vivo</em>. Mechanistically, RIP, RNA pull-down and co-IP assays revealed that circPDIA3 directly bonded to the GSDME-C domain, subsequently enhanced the autoinhibitory effect of the GSDME-C domain through blocking the GSDME-C domain palmitoylation by ZDHHC3 and ZDHHC17, thereby restraining pyroptosis. Additionally, it was found that the circPDIA3/miR-449a/XBP1 positive feedback loop increased the expression of circPDIA3 to induce chemoresistance. Furthermore, our clinical data and patient-derived tumor xenograft (PDX) models supported the positive association of circPDIA3 with development of chemoresistance in CRC patients. Taken together, our findings demonstrated that circPDIA3 could promote chemoresistance by amplifying the autoinhibitory effect of the GSDME-C domain through inhibition of the GSDME-C domain palmitoylation in CRC. This study provides novel insights into the mechanism of circRNA in regulating pyroptosis and providing a potential therapeutic target for reversing chemoresistance of CRC.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":51022,"journal":{"name":"Drug Resistance Updates","volume":"76 ","pages":"Article 101097"},"PeriodicalIF":24.3,"publicationDate":"2024-05-28","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S1368764624000554/pdfft?md5=83c78ec039fe215f92b9afa7902bb535&pid=1-s2.0-S1368764624000554-main.pdf","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141303126","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

However, the contribution of KLF12 to cancer treatment remains undefined. Here, we show that KLF12 is downregulated in various cancer types, and KLF12 downregulation promotes cisplatin resistance and cancer metastasis in esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (ESCC). Mechanistically, KLF12 binds to the promoters of L1 Cell Adhesion Molecule (L1CAM) and represses its expression. Depletion of L1CAM abrogates cisplatin resistance and cancer metastasis caused by KLF12 loss. Moreover, the E3 ubiquitin ligase tripartite motif-containing 27 (TRIM27) binds to the N-terminal region of KLF12 and ubiquitinates KLF12 at K326 via K33-linked polyubiquitination. Notably, TRIM27 depletion enhances the transcriptional activity of KLF12 and consequently inhibits L1CAM expression. Overall, our study elucidated a novel regulatory mechanism involving TRIM27, KLF12 and L1CAM, which plays a substantial role in cisplatin resistance and cancer metastasis in ESCC.

The targeted approach minimizes the off-target toxicities associated with the payloads and broadens the therapeutic window, enhancing the efficacy and safety profile of cancer treatments. Within precision oncology, ADCs have garnered significant attention as a cutting-edge research area and have been approved to treat a range of malignant tumors. Correspondingly, the issue of resistance to ADCs has gradually come to the fore. Any dysfunction in the steps leading to the ADCs' action within tumor cells can lead to the development of resistance. A deeper understanding of resistance mechanisms may be crucial for developing novel ADCs and exploring combination therapy strategies, which could further enhance the clinical efficacy of ADCs in cancer treatment. This review outlines the brief historical development and mechanism of ADCs and discusses the impact of their key components on the activity of ADCs. Furthermore, it provides a detailed account of the application of ADCs with various target antigens in cancer therapy, the categorization of potential resistance mechanisms, and the current state of combination therapies. Looking forward, breakthroughs in overcoming technical barriers, selecting differentiated target antigens, and enhancing resistance management and combination therapy strategies will broaden the therapeutic indications for ADCs.

This study presents evidence indicating that Syk expression in high-grade serous ovarian cancer and triple-negative breast cancers promotes DNA double-strand break resection, homologous recombination (HR), and subsequent therapeutic resistance. Our investigations reveal that Syk is activated by ATM following DNA damage and is recruited to DNA double-strand breaks by NBS1. Once localized to the break site, Syk phosphorylates CtIP, a pivotal mediator of resection and HR, at Thr-847 to promote repair activity, particularly in Syk-expressing cancer cells. Inhibition of Syk or its genetic deletion impedes CtIP Thr-847 phosphorylation and overcomes the resistant phenotype. Collectively, our findings suggest a model wherein Syk fosters therapeutic resistance by promoting DNA resection and HR through a hitherto uncharacterized ATM-Syk-CtIP pathway.
