Thyroid hormone receptor interactor 13 (TRIP13) is a member of the ATPases associated with various cellular activities family of proteins and is highly conserved in a wide range of species. Recent studies have demonstrated that TRIP13 is critical for the inactivation of the spindle assembly checkpoint and is associated with the progression of certain cancers. In the present study, the role of TRIP13 in colorectal cancer (CRC) was examined. Reverse transcription-quantitative polymerase chain reaction analysis revealed that TRIP13 messenger RNA was highly expressed in multiple CRC tissues. The depletion of TRIP13 in CRC cells suppressed cell proliferation, migration and invasion. To determine whether the catalytic activity of TRIP13 was critical for cancer progression, an inactive mutant of TRIP13 was expressed in CRC cells. The invasion of cancer cells that expressed the mutant TRIP13 was significantly reduced compared with that of the wild type TRIP13-expressing cancer cells. These results indicate that TRIP13 could be a potential target for CRC treatment.

Repeated ionizing radiation exposure induces TRIP13 expression, conferring radioresistance in lung cancer cells.

Sci Rep

Reproductive Biology Laboratory, Centre for Reproductive Medicine, Amsterdam UMC, University of Amsterdam, Amsterdam, 1105AZ, The Netherlands.

Radiation therapy is a common treatment modality for lung cancer, and resistance to radiation can significantly affect treatment outcomes. We recently described that lung cancer cells that express more germ cell cancer genes (GC genes, genes that are usually restricted to the germ line) can repair DNA double-strand breaks more rapidly, show higher rates of proliferation and are more resistant to ionizing radiation than cells that express fewer GC genes. The gene encoding TRIP13 appeared to play a large role in this malignant phenotype.

Gastric cancer (GC) is one of the most common cancers worldwide, with increasing incidence and mortality rates. It is typically diagnosed at advanced stages, leading to a poor prognosis. GC is a highly heterogeneous disease and its progression is associated with complex interplay between genetic and environmental factors.

Article Synopsis
  • * Recent research indicates that IPF develops when alveolar epithelial type II (AT2) cells change and lose their ability to repair lung tissue due to abnormal differentiation, but the reasons behind this change are not fully understood.
  • * An analysis of AT2 cells in IPF patients revealed significant changes, particularly an enhancer activation in the TRIP13 gene, and using a TRIP13 inhibitor in lab settings showed promise in preventing the harmful differentiation associated with IPF, suggesting a new potential therapy.

Introduction: Triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC) has a high mortality rate and limited treatment options. Tetrahydrocurcumin (THC), a major metabolite of curcumin, has potential antitumor activities. However, the antitumor effects and mechanism of THC in TNBC remain elusive.

Role of TRIP13 in human cancer development.

As an AAA + ATPase, thyroid hormone receptor interacting protein 13 (TRIP13) primarily functions in DNA double-strand break repair, chromosome recombination, and cell cycle checkpoint regulation; aberrant expression of TRIP13 can result in chromosomal instability (CIN). According to recent research, TRIP13 is aberrantly expressed in a variety of cancers, and a patient's poor prognosis and tumor stage are strongly correlated with high expression of TRIP13. Tumor cell and subcutaneous xenograft growth can be markedly inhibited by TRIP13 knockdown or TRIP13 inhibitor administration.
