Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Ovarian clear cell adenocarcinoma (OCCA) shows anticancer drug resistance. We reported that HNF-1beta might sustain Chk1 protein phosphorylation to arrest the cell cycle and inhibit cell death induced by an anticancer agent. As the mechanism of sustained Chk1 phosphorylation, we showed that HNF-1beta inhibited the ubiquitylation of Claspin through the overexpresses Usp28 which was a deubiquitinating enzyme. Transient knocking-down of Claspin or Usp28 in HNF-1beta expressing cells increased cell death and improved chemoresistance after the addition of bleomycin which oxidatively cleaved DNA. Combination anticancer drugs with Chk1 inhibitors also induced cell death and increased chemosensitivity. Usp28, Claspin and Chk1 may be new targets of treatment in OCCA.
