In this study, PID1 was identified as a novel regulator involved in modulating apoptosis induced by anticancer agents in a context-dependent manner. PID1 relieved chemotherapy-induced ROS production, mitochondrial dysfunction, and promoted Raf-1-mediated BAD inhibition. AKT, Bcl2 inhibition, or Raf-1 silencing abolished PID1-mediated anti-apoptotic effects. PID1 altered the rhythmicity of Sorafenib on survival-related kinases, resulting in AKT blockade via the Raf-1/BRAF/ERK/MEK pathway. PID1 can function as a biomarker of resistance to conventional chemotherapeutic agents but sensitivity towards Sorafenib.
The treatment outcome of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is severely hampered due to its etiology, and thus in depth understanding of the genetic mechanisms underlying response of HCC to various anticancer agents is needed. Here, we have identified Phosphotyrosine interaction domain-containing protein 1 (PID1) as a novel regulator involved in modulation of apoptosis induced by anticancer agents in a context-dependent manner. PID1 relieved chemotherapy-induced ROS production, mitochondrial outer membrane permeability and mitochondrial respiratory depression. In addition, PID1 restricted AKT-mediated inhibition on Raf-1 through interacting with PDPK1 at phosphorylated tyrosine sites, thus enhancing Raf-1-mediated BAD inhibition. Interestingly, AKT, Bcl2 inhibition or Raf-1 silencing abolished PID1-mediated anti-apoptotic effects. However, PID1 altered the rhythmicity of pharmacological activity of Sorafenib on various survival-related kinases, thus resulting in AKT blockade via Raf-1/BRAF/ERK/MEK pathway. BRAF inhibition or Raf-1 depletion disrupted PID1-mediated barrier in AKT activation in response to Sorafenib. Moreover, in vivo study indicated that PID1 deficiency led to increased survival rate upon Doxorubicin treatment but reduced efficacy of Sorafenib. Overall, we propose that PID1 can function as an underlying biomarker of resistance to conventional chemotherapeutic agents but sensitivity towards Sorafenib.
