摘要

Background

Endometrial carcinoma (EC) is a common gynecological malignancy with a complex pathogenesis. PDS5B is revealed to be dysregulated and play critical roles in multiple cancers, while its role in EC remains largely unknown. The aim of this study was to explore the expression profile and biological function of the PDS5B in EC.

Methods

In this study, differential gene expression analysis in EC was performed using public databases and relevant analytical tools. The expression of PDS5B was verified by western blot and qRT-PCR in cell and tissue samples. The effects of PDS5B overexpression on EC cell proliferation, invasion and apoptosis, as well as the interaction of PDS5B with YTHDC1 and the regulation of PTEN stability were further explored by in vitro experiments. The effects of PDS5B on tumorigenesis and metastasis were explored using in vivo models.

Results

PDS5B was down-regulated in EC, and overexpression of PDS5B significantly inhibited cell growth, and promoted apoptosis. In vitro results revealed that PDS5B interacted with YTHDC1 in EC cells and YTHDC1 regulated PTEN expression and stability via m6A modification, affecting the biological behavior of EC cells. In in vivo nude mouse models, overexpression of PDS5B significantly inhibited EC tumor development and metastasis in nude mice.

Conclusions

PDS5B interacts with YTHDC1 and further regulates PTEN in endometrial cancer cells, thereby inhibiting the malignant development of the tumor. These findings indicate the potential part of PDS5B in the development of EC and provide new molecular targets for the treatment of EC.
