GATA6 induces cell senescence to exerts lung cancer suppressive function and denotes a therapeutic opportunity for GATA6 deficient lung cancer patients

ABSTRACT: Lung cancer is the world-wide leading cause of cancer related deaths. Tumor suppressor genes (TSGs) play a critical role in restricting tumorigenesis and impact the therapeutic effect of various treatments. However, TSGs remain to be systemically determined in lung cancer. Here we identified GATA6 as a potent lung cancer TSG. GATA6 inhibited lung cancer cell growth in vitro and tumorigenesis in vivo. Mechanistically, GATA6 upregulated p53 expression to transcribe p21 mRNA while inhibited Akt activation to stabilize p21 protein, thus inducing lung cancer cell senescence. Furthermore, we showed that ectopic expression of GATA6 led to dramatic shrinkage of established lung tumor in vivo
