Pancreatic cancer is a highly aggressive malignancy of the digestive system, with occult onset, rapid progression, and poor prognosis. The genetic heterogeneity of pancreatic cancer contributes to its highly malignant biological behavior. HMGA2 is overexpressed in tumors and is known to regulate tumor progression in various cancers through the HMGA2-IGF2BP2 axis, but its role and mechanism in pancreatic cancer remain unclear. In this study, we demonstrated that HMGA2 promotes pancreatic cancer progression. We further revealed that HMGA2 upregulates IGF2BP2, which stabilizes APLP2 mRNA via m6A modification, thereby promoting pancreatic cancer progression. These results indicate that HMGA2/IGF2BP2/APLP2 signaling axis regulates the progression of pancreatic cancer.
胰腺癌是消化系统一种侵袭性很强的恶性肿瘤,起病隐匿,进展迅速,预后较差。胰腺癌的基因异质性导致其具有高度恶性的生物学行为。HMGA2在肿瘤中过表达,已知其通过HMGA2-IGF2BP2轴调节多种癌症的肿瘤进展,但其在胰腺癌中的作用和机制仍不清楚。在本研究中,我们证明HMGA2促进胰腺癌进展。我们进一步揭示,HMGA2上调IGF2BP2,后者通过m6A修饰使APLP2 mRNA稳定,从而促进胰腺癌进展。这些结果表明,HMGA2/IGF2BP2/APLP2信号轴调节胰腺癌的进展。
