Popis: Abstract Background Inositol‐requiring enzyme 1 (IRE1) is an endoplasmic reticulum (ER)‐resident transmembrane protein that senses ER stress and mediates an essential arm of the unfolded protein response (UPR). IRE1 reduces ER stress by upregulating the expression of multiple ER chaperones through activation of X‐box‐binding protein 1 (XBP1). Emerging lines of evidence have revealed that IRE1‐XBP1 axis serves as a multipurpose signal transducer during oncogenic transformation and cancer development. In this study, we explore how IRE1‐XBP1 signaling promotes chemoresistance in lung cancer. Methods The expression patterns of UPR components and MRP1 were examined by Western blot. qRT‐PCR was employed to determine RNA expression. The promoter activity was determined by luciferase reporter assay. Chemoresistant cancer cells were analyzed by viability, apoptosis. CUT & Tag (Cleavage under targets and tagmentation)‐qPCR analysis was used for analysis of DNA‐protein interaction. Results Here we show that activation of IRE1α‐XBP1 pathway leads to an increase in MDR‐related protein 1 (MRP1) expression, which facilitates drug extrusion and confers resistance to cytotoxic chemotherapy. At the molecular level, XBP1‐induced c‐Myc is necessary for SREBP1 expression, and SREBP1 binds to the MRP1 promoter to directly regulate its transcription. Conclusions We conclude that IRE1α‐XBP1 had important role in chemoresistance and appears to be a novel prognostic marker for lung cancer.
