Abstract:
Lung cancer is one of the most common types of malignant cancer worldwide, causing a serious social and economic burden. It is classified into non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) and small cell lung cancer, with NSCLC accounting for 80-85% of cases. Eukaryotic translation initiation factor 4 gamma 1 (EIF4G1) is highly expressed in NSCLC, playing an important role in regulating tumor growth, angiogenesis, malignant transformation, and phagocytosis. Ubiquitin-specific protease 10 (USP10) functions as a deubiquitinating enzyme to regulate substrate protein deubiquitination and reverse the ubiquitin proteasome degradation pathway. Our previous study identified an interaction between EIF4G1 and USP10; however, their regulatory mechanism remains unclear. Herein, we found that USP10 positively regulates EIF4G1 in NSCLC cells. An in vivo ubiquitination assay demonstrated deubiquitination of EIF4G1 by USP10, which reversed the ubiquitin proteasomal degradation of EIF4G1, thereby increasing its stability. Upregulation of EIF4G1 promoted cell proliferation, migration, and invasion in NSCLC cells. The current study not only reveals a novel mechanism through which USP10 positively regulates EIF4G1 in NSCLC, but also demonstrates the potential of USP10 as a therapeutic target to treat NSCLC.
