ABSTRACT: Background
Annexin 1 (ANXA1) expression is associated with the malignant tumor phenotype, making it an attractive therapeutic target. However, little is known about the regulation of ANXA1 in non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC).Methods
We investigated the biological roles of ANXA1 in tumor growth, migration, and invasion, and explored the possibility of ANXA1 as a potential therapeutic target for the treatment of NSCLC.Results
Our findings revealed that ANXA1 enhanced nuclear factor (NF)-?B activation in NSCLC cells by interaction with inhibitor of NF-?B kinase complex subunit, IKK?. We also found that NF-?B could negatively regulate microRNA (miR)-26a, and miR-26a was regulated through the ANXA1-NF-?B regulatory pathway. NF-?B activation negatively regulated by miR-26a was confirmed in NSCLC.Conclusion
Together, these results provide evidence of the mechanisms of the ANXA1-NF-?B-miR-26a regulatory pathway in the invasion and migration in NSCLC.
