Currently, platinum-containing regimens are the most commonly used regimens for advanced gastric cancer patients, and chemotherapy resistance is one of the main reasons for treatment failure. Thus, it is important to reveal the mechanism of oxaliplatin resistance and to seek effective intervention strategies to improve chemotherapy sensitivity, thereby improving the survival and prognosis of gastric cancer patients. To understand the molecular mechanisms of oxaliplatin resistance, we generate an oxaliplatin-resistant gastric cancer cell line and conduct assay for transposase-accessible chromatin sequencing (ATAC-seq) and RNA sequencing (RNA-seq) for both parental and oxaliplatin-resistant AGS cells. A total of 3232 genomic regions are identified to have higher accessibility in oxaliplatin-resistant cells, and DNA-binding motif analysis identifies JUNB as the core transcription factor in the regulatory network. JUNB is overexpressed in oxaliplatin-resistant gastric cancer cells, and its upregulation is associated with poor prognosis in gastric cancer patients, which is validated by our tissue microarray data. Moreover, chromatin immunoprecipitation sequencing (ChIP-seq) analysis reveals that JUNB binds to the transcriptional start site of key genes involved in the MAPK signaling pathway. Knockdown of JUNB inhibits the MAPK signaling pathway and restores sensitivity to oxaliplatin. Combined treatment with the ERK inhibitor piperlongumine or MEK inhibitor trametinib effectively overcomes oxaliplatin resistance. This study provides evidence that JUNB mediates oxaliplatin resistance in gastric cancer by activating the MAPK pathway. The combination of MAPK inhibitors with oxaliplatin overcomes resistance to oxaliplatin, providing a promising treatment opportunity for oxaliplatin-resistant gastric cancer patients. |
