Abstract
Pancreatic cancer (PC) is a highly aggressive and deadly malignancy with limited treatment options and poor prognosis. Identifying new therapeutic targets and developing effective strategies for PC treatment is of utmost importance. Here, we revealed that SHCBP1 is significantly overexpressed in PC and negatively correlated with patient prognosis. Knockout of SHCBP1 inhibits the proliferation and migration of PC cells invitro, and suppresses the tumor growth invivo. In addition, we identified AZD5582 as a novel inhibitor of SHCBP1, which efficiently restrains the growth of PC in cell lines, organoids, and patient-derived xenografts. Mechanistically, we found that AZD5582 induced the apoptosis of PC cells by inhibiting the activity of PI3K/AKT signaling and preventing the degradation of TP53. Collectively, our study highlights SHCBP1 as a potential therapeutic target and its inhibitor AZD5582 as a viable agent for PC treatment strategies.
