Knockdown of the FoxM1 enhances the sensitivity of gastric cancer cells to cisplatin by targeting Mcl-1

Resistance to chemotherapy is a main obstacle for effective treatment of gastric cancer, the mechanism of which is still poorly understood. Forkhead box M1 (FoxM1) plays an important role in chemo-resistance of various tumors. This study aimed to explore whether FoxM1 mediated resistance of the gastric cancer cell line SGC7901 to the chemotherapy agent cisplatin (DDP). In the study, we detected FoxM1 and Mcl-1 expression via real time-PCR and western blot and demonstrated that FoxM1 is overexpressed in cisplatin-resistance GC cells and Mcl-1 expression is regulated by FoxM1. We examined SGC7901/DDP cell viability by MTT assay, which revealed that suppression of the FoxM1/Mcl-1 pathway impaired cell viability and thus increased sensitivity to cisplatin in gastric cancer cells. Taken together, the study implied that the FoxM1/Mcl-1 pathway may overcome cispaltin resistance of gastric cancer and provide a new therapeutic target for the treatment of gastric cancer.
