B7-H3, an immunoregulatory protein, has been found highly expressed in several cancer types, and involved in cancer cell migration and invasion. Here, we investigated the role of B7-H3 in oxaliplatin resistance in colorectal cancer (CRC) cells. Transient silencing of B7-H3 enhanced oxaliplatin sensitivity by increasing oxaliplatin-induced DNA damage. The overexpression of B7-H3 increased oxaliplatin resistance reducing the formation of phosphorylated histone H2AX (gamma H2AX) loci. The silencing of X-ray repair cross complementing group 1 (XRCC1), upregulated in B7-H3 overexpressing cells, induced an increase in cell death following oxaliplatin treatment. Finally, the upregulation of XRCC1 expression induced by B7-H3 involved PI3K-AKT pathway. In conclusion, B7413 promotes the oxaliplatin resistance in CRC cells upregulating the expression of XRCC1 via PI3K-AKT pathway. (C) 2017 Published by Elsevier Inc.
