| Abstract: | Background: Gastrointestinal stromal tumor (GIST) is a dominantly mutant KIT-driven tumor. Prolonged tyrosine kinase inhibitor (TKI) treatment may result in a resistant phenotype through acquired secondary KIT mutation. Increasing evidences show that membrane-bound receptors, as EGFR, can translocate into the nucleus, mediate genes expression, and lead to tumor survival and drug resistance. However, it’s barely known the nuclear role of KIT in GIST. Methods: In this study, two imatinib (IM)-resistant GIST cell lines, GIST48 and GIST430, were used as a model. Results: In this study, we first showed that KIT is distributed both in the cytoplasm and the nucleus in IM-resistant GIST cells. Using ChIP-seq and ChIP assay, we identified that nuclear KIT bound to the NFKBIB promoter region and regulated its expression. The expression levels of NFKBIB and phosopho-KIT were significantly correlated with NCCN-risk category in surgically resected GISTs stained by immunohistochemistry. The cell viabilities were inhibited as accompanying with KIT reduction in GIST cells while NFKBIB was silenced or RELA was overexpressed. Moreover, RELA was activated, translocated into the nucleus, and bound to KIT promoter region in NFKBIB-silenced or RELA-overexpressed GIST cells. Valproic acid, acted as a NFKB inducer, could induce RELA nucleus translocation and binding to KIT promoter region that led to the reduction of protein and RNA expression level of KIT and the cell viabilities of GIST cells. Furthermore, the combination of IM with low-dose valproic acid showed synergistically inhibitory effect on cell viabilities of GIST cells and comparable effects on reducing phospho-KIT level and inhibiting tumor growth as high-dose valproic acid did in GIST430 xenograft model. Conclusions: Taken together, we first demonstrated that phosphorylated KIT could translocate into the nucleus and drive itself expression in IM-resistant GIST cells through mediating NFKBIB expression. In addition, our findings identified a novel and druggable KIT-NFKBIB-NFKB regulatory axis that provides a new insight on tumorigenesis and therapeutic option for IM-resistant, mutant KIT-expressing GISTs. |
