Abstract Triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC) is a subtype of breast cancer that is prone to metastasis and therapy resistance. Owing to its aggressive nature and limited availability of targeted therapies, TNBC is associated with higher mortality as compared to other forms of breast cancer. In order to develop new therapeutic options for TNBC, we characterized the factors involved in TNBC growth and progression. Here, we demonstrate that N-acylsphingosine amidohydrolase 1 (ASAH1) is overexpressed in TNBC cells and is regulated via p53 and PI3K-AKT signaling pathways. Genetic knockdown or pharmacological inhibition of ASAH1 suppresses TNBC growth and progression. Mechanistically, ASAH1 inhibition stimulates dual-specificity phosphatase 5 (DUSP5) expression, suppressing the mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) pathway. Furthermore, pharmacological cotargeting of the ASAH1 and MAPK pathways inhibits TNBC growth. Collectively, we unmasked a novel role of ASAH1 in driving TNBC and identified dual targeting of the ASAH1 and MAPK pathways as a potential new therapeutic approach for TNBC treatment. |
