PRDX2 promotes the proliferation of colorectal cancer cells by increasing the ubiquitinated degradation of p53

Abstract Colorectal cancer is the most common gastrointestinal cancer and causes severe damage to human health. PRDX2 is a member of the peroxiredoxin family reported to have a high level of expression in colorectal cancer. However, the mechanisms by which PRDX2 promotes the proliferation of colorec...

description Abstract Colorectal cancer is the most common gastrointestinal cancer and causes severe damage to human health. PRDX2 is a member of the peroxiredoxin family reported to have a high level of expression in colorectal cancer. However, the mechanisms by which PRDX2 promotes the proliferation of colorectal cancer are still unclear. Here, the results indicated that PRDX2 expression was upregulated in colorectal cancer and closely correlated with poor prognosis. Functionally, PRDX2 promoted the proliferation of colorectal cancer cells. Mechanistically, PRDX2 could bind RPL4, reducing the interaction between RPL4 and MDM2. These findings demonstrate that the oncogenic property of PRDX2 may be attributed to its regulation of the RPL4-MDM2-p53 pathway, leading to p53 ubiquitinated degradation.
