摘要："The incidence rate of human hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is approximately three times higher in males than in females. A better understanding of the mechanisms underlying HCC development in males could lead to more effective therapies for HCC. Our previous study found that FBXW10 played a critical role in promoting HCC development in male mice and patients, but the mechanism remains unknown. Here, we found that FBXW10 promoted K63-linked ANXA2 polyubiquitination and activation in HCC tissues from males, and this process was required for S6K1-mediated phosphorylation. Activated ANXA2 further translocated from the cytoplasm to the cell membrane to bind KRAS and then activated the MEK/ERK pathway, leading to HCC proliferation and lung metastasis. Interfering with ANXA2 significantly blocked FBXW10-driven HCC growth and lung metastasis in vitro and in vivo. Notably, membrane ANXA2 was upregulated and positively correlated with FBXW10 expression in male HCC patients. These findings offer new insights into the regulation and function of FBXW10 signaling in HCC tumorigenesis and metastasis and suggest that the FBXW10-S6K1-ANXA2-KRAS-ERK axis may serve as a potential biomarker and therapeutic target in male HCC patients with high FBXW10 expression."
