Hypoxia-Induced ZWINT Mediates Pancreatic Cancer Proliferation by Interacting With p53/p21

p53/p21 signaling plays a vital role in pancreatic cancer (PC) progression. ZWINT was shown to function as an oncoprotein in the progression of multiple cancers. However, the involvement of ZWINT and p53 activation in the progression of PC remains poorly understood. Bioinformatics and tissue array c...

description p53/p21 signaling plays a vital role in pancreatic cancer (PC) progression. ZWINT was shown to function as an oncoprotein in the progression of multiple cancers. However, the involvement of ZWINT and p53 activation in the progression of PC remains poorly understood. Bioinformatics and tissue array chip analyses were performed to evaluate ZWINT expression in pancreatic cancer. ZWINT mRNA and protein expression were evaluated in normoxia and hypoxia.

Immunoprecipitation and immunofluorescence were used to examine the interaction of ZWINT, MDM2, and p53. p53 activity was evaluated by q-PCR and luciferase assay. Protein degradation and ubiquitination assays were used to analyze the role of ZWINT in p53 ubiquitination. ZWINT was overexpressed in pancreatic cancer and induced in hypoxia.
