Abstract
This study mainly focuses on revealing the role of PLAGL2 in lung cancer stemness. In vitro and in vivo experiments were performed to evaluate the effects of PLAGL2 on lung cancer cell stemness. Mechanistic analysis using luciferase reporter and ChIP assays were implemented to reveal the underlying mechanisms. The transcriptional factor E2F1 transcriptionally activated PLAGL2 expression via directly binding to PLAGL2 promoter in lung cancer cells. Moreover, PLAGL2 promoted the stemness of lung cancer cells dependent on E2F1-mediated transcriptional activation. This study provides a potential target for lung cancer progression.
