lncRNA Prader Willi/Angelman Region RNA 6 (PWAR6) is considered to play a protective lncRNA in glioma, but, the role of PWAR6 in the occurrence and cisplatin resistance of non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) is elusive. In the study, we aimed to assess the role of PWAR6 in the cisplatin resistance of NSCLC. Based on the oebiotech and TargetScanHuman database, we predicted the interaction between PWAR6, miR-577 and PHACTR1. We then used small interfering RNA (siRNA), miRNA mimics and dual-luciferase reporter assay to explore the regulatory role of PWAR6/miR-577PHACTR1. Based on the online database, miR-577 can interact with PWAR6 and PHACTR1. Soon afterwards, we observed that the expression of PWAR6 and PHACTR1 was increased, while miR-577 expression was decreased in A549/DDP cells. And the cell viability was decreased, while cell apoptosis was increased in A549/DDP cells. What's more, PWAR6 knockdown can promote the expression of miR-577 and inhibit the expression of PHACTR1. PWAR6 knockdown elevated cell proliferation and reduced cell apoptosis of A549/DDP cells. Interestingly, we found that miR-577 can interact with PHACTR1 to regulate the proliferation and apoptosis of A549/DDP cells. To conclude, we speculated that PWAR6 knockdown elevated cell proliferation and reduced cell apoptosis of A549/DDP cells via miR-577/PHACTR1, providing the theoretical basis for the clinical treatment of NSCLC patients.

Drug resistance to chemotherapy in treating cancers becomes an increasingly serious challenge, which leads to treatment failure and poor patient survival. Drug-resistant cancer cells normally reduce intracellular accumulation of drugs by controlling drug uptake and promoting drug efflux, which severely limits the efficacy of chemotherapy. To overcome this problem, a membrane fused drug delivery system (MF-DDS) was constructed to treat cisplatin (DDP)-resistant lung cancer (A549-DDP) by delivering DDP via membrane fusion using a complementary coiled-coil forming peptides (CPK/CPE).

Multi-drug resistance-associated protein 1 (MRP1) plays critical roles in the multi-drug resistance (MDR) of cancer cells, LncRNA HOTAIR is closely related to MDR in lung cancer, however, the effects of HOTAIR on MRP1 expression and MDR in lung cancer cells (A549/DDP) remain unknown. In this study, the effects of HOTAIR on MRP1 gene expression and MDR in A549/DDP cells were monitored. LncRNA HOTAIR was upregulated in A549/DDP cells, and overexpression of HOTAIR promoted MRP1 expression and MDR development.

Background: Cisplatin (DDP) resistance has long posed a challenge in the clinical treatment of lung cancer (LC). Insulin-like growth factor 2 binding protein 2 (IGF2BP2) has been identified as an oncogenic factor in LC, whereas its specific role in DDP resistance in LC remains unclear.

Results: In this study, we investigated the role of IGF2BP2 on DDP resistance in DDP-resistant A549 cells (A549/DDP) in vitro and in a DDP-resistant lung tumor-bearing mouse model in vivo.

Targeting ferroptosis pathway becomes a new solution for cisplatin (DDP) resistance in lung adenocarcinoma (LUAD), and further research is required to explore the molecular mechanisms underlying ferroptosis and DDP resistance, providing biotargets for LUAD treatment. In this study, DDP-sensitive A549 cells and DDP-resistant A549/DDP cells were treated with DDP, DDP sensitivity was detected through using CCK-8 method and colony formation assay, ferroptosis-related markers were determined through commercial kits, and the molecular regulatory mechanism was analyzed through methylated RNA immunoprecipitation, RNA pull-down, dual luciferase assay, quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction and western blotting assay. Results showed that compared to A549 cells, FENDRR was downregulated in A549/DDP cells, and FENDRR increased iron content, labile iron pool, lipid peroxidation, LDH release and ROS levels, accelerating ferroptosis to promote DDP sensitivity.
