"Ubiquitin‐specific peptidase 28 (USP28) is a deubiquitinase, which has been found upregulated in several tumors, and displays its function as an oncoprotein. xref In breast cancer and colon cancer, USP28 was found highly expressed. xref As a deubiquitinase, USP28 bound to c‐Myc protein through an interaction with E3 ligase FBW7α, and USP28 stabilized c‐Myc by decreasing its polyubiquitination, which was essential for cell proliferation in tumors. xref It has also been reported that USP28 knockdown enhanced the radiosensitivity of esophageal cancer cells by destabilizing c‐Myc protein and enhancing the accumulation of HIF‐1α. xref In non‐small cell lung cancer (NSCLC), USP28 was upregulated and predicted a poor index of NSCLC patients. xref In mechanism, USP28 bound to STAT3, and stabilized STAT3 by decreasing its polyubiquitination. xref Thus, inhibiting USP28 could be as a promising strategy for tumor diagnosis or treatment."

"A previous study demonstrated that the deubiquitinating enzyme USP28 directly interacts with STAT3 and increases its stability. xref Thus, regulation of STAT3 acetylation and recruitment of E3 ligase or deubiquitinating enzymes might be associated with the regulation of STAT3 protein stability by SA14."
