"This newly identified catalytic site can serve as a potential target for developing inhibitors against JOSD2 catalytic activity.In attempts to elucidate the underlying mechanisms of tumor-promoting effect of JOSD2, we found that overexpression of JOSD2 removes K6-linked polyubiquitination of LKB1, and the deubiquitination of K6 linkage of LKB1 leads to disruption of LKB1/STRAD/MO25 complex integrity, thus inhibits kinase activity of LKB1 and downstream AMPK signaling pathway, so as to induce cell proliferation."

"We then further ask whether the tumor-promoting effect of JOSD2 is dependent on its regulatory effect on LKB1."

"Moreover, patient derived cell (PDC) and patient-derived xenograft (PDX) model were further introduced to validate the YAP/TAZ regulation and tumor-promoting roles of JOSD2 in CCA patients."

reach
"Taken together, these data confirmed that depletion of JOSD2 significantly arrested the NSCLC cell proliferation in vitro and tumor growth in vivo."

"In vivo xenograft assays further confirmed that JOSD2 promoted tumor proliferation and drug resistance in ESCC."

"In vivo xenograft assays confirmed that JOSD2 promoted tumor proliferation and drug resistance in ESCC."

"Nonetheless, in LKB1-null cells, silencing JOSD2 still exhibited a certain inhibitory effect on the proliferation, suggesting that other protein substrates in addition to LKB1, might also be involved in JOSD2-driven NSCLC proliferation and cannot be excluded.To further demonstrate that the tumor-promoting effect of JOSD2 depends on LKB1, LKB1-WT and LKB1-3KR were introduced to LKB-null NCI-H460 cells."

reach
"More importantly, JOSD2 distinctly accelerated the in vivo tumor growth in NCI-H460 xenografted tumors harboring LKB1-WT, but exerting minimal impact in control and LKB1-3KR groups (Fig. 5h–j)."

reach
"Taken together, the tumor-promoting effect of JOSD2 is dependent, at least partially, on its regulation on LKB1."

"Consistently, JOSD2 silence markedly decreased >50% tumor weight (P < 0.01, Fig. 5C)."
