AKR1C1 Drives Oxaliplatin Chemoresistance by Activation of STAT3 in Colorectal Cancer


ABSTRACT: AKR1C1, a member of the AKR1C family, has been identified as a key player in cancer progression, promoting cancer cell proliferation and inhibiting apoptosis. Here, we identified AKR1C1 as a potential crucial gene significantly associated with oxaliplatin (OXA) sensitivity and unfavorable clinical outcomes through the transcriptome analysis of OXA-sensitive and -resistant colorectal cancer cell lines. Both in vitro and in vivo, AKR1C1 promotes cancer cell proliferation and confers OXA chemoresistance in colorectal cancer cells. Mechanistically, AKR1C1 interacts with and activates STAT3 and increases glutathione (GSH) levels, resulting in chemoresistance in colorectal cancer cells. Moreover, pharmacologic inhibition of AKR1C1 with alantolactone restores the sensitivity of resistant cell lines to OXA and the combined treatment of alantolactone with OXA exhibits superior antitumor effects in mouse xenografts. Collectively, the present study offers compelling evidence that AKR1C1 expression confers resistance to OXA in colorectal cancer, providing a promising strategy to circumvent chemoresistance.
