The E3 ligase F-box only protein 28 (FBXO28) belongs to the F-box family of proteins that play a critical role in tumor development. However, the potential function of FBXO28 in pancreatic cancer (PC) and its molecular mechanism remain unclear. In this study, we examined FBXO28 expression in PC and its biological role and explored the mechanism of FBXO28-mediated proliferation, invasion, and metastasis of PC cells. Compared with paracancerous tissues and human normal pancreatic ductal epithelial cells, FBXO28 was highly expressed in PC tissues and cell lines. High expression of FBXO28 was negatively correlated with the survival prognosis of patients with PC. Functional assays indicated that FBXO28 promoted PC cell proliferation, invasion, and metastasis and . Furthermore, immunoprecipitation-mass spectrometry was used to identify SMARCC2 as the target of FBXO28; upregulation of SMARCC2 can reverse the effect of overexpression of FBXO28 on promoting the proliferation, invasion, and metastasis of PC cells. Mechanistically, FBXO28 inhibited SMARCC2 expression in post-translation by increasing SMARCC2 ubiquitination and protein degradation. In conclusion, FBXO28 has a potential role in PC, possibly promoting PC progression through SMARCC2 ubiquitination. Thus, FBXO28 might be a potential treatment target in PC.
