Cytokines-activated nuclear IKKα-FAT10 pathway induces breast cancer tamoxifen-resistance

Endocrine therapy that blocks estrogen signaling is the most effective treatment for patients with estrogen receptor positive(ER+)breast cancer.However,the efficacy of agents such as tamoxifen(Tam)is often compromised by the development of resistance.Here we report that cytokines-activated nuclear IKKα confers Tam resistance to ER+breast cancer by inducing the expression of FAT10,and that the expression of FAT10 and nuclear IKKα in primary ER+human breast cancer was correlated with lymphotoxin β(LTB)expression and significantly associated with relapse and metastasis in patients treated with adjuvant mono-Tam.IKKα activation or enforced FAT10 expression pro-motes Tam-resistance while loss of IKKα or FAT10 augments Tam sensitivity.The induction of FAT10 by IKKα is mediated by the tran-scription factor Pax5,and coordinated via an KKα-p53-miR-23a circuit in which activation of IKKα attenuates p53-directed repression of FAT10.Thus,our findings establish IKKα-to-FAT10 pathway as a new therapeutic target for the treatment of Tam-resistant ER+breast cancer.
