In the present study, EGFR was decreased when RHBDD1 was knocked down or inactivated. Further analysis found that c-Jun and EGFR protein expression was decreased in RHBDD1 knockdown and inactivated cells. c-Jun overexpression in RHBDD1-inactivated cells rescued EGFR expression in a dose-dependent manner. RHBDD1 overexpression in RHBDD1-inactivated cells restored EGFR expression, but this effect was counteracted by c-Jun knockdown. Furthermore, EGFR and c-Jun were attenuated in the RHBDD1 knockdown and inactivated groups in animal tumor models. Tissue microarray assays demonstrated a correlation between RHBDD1 and EGFR in colorectal cancer patients. Therefore, our findings indicate that RHBDD1 stimulates EGFR expression by promoting the AP-1 pathway. |
