In the current study, we found that overexpression of NFAT2 was associated with poor prognosis in lung cancer patients, and is observed in a carboplatin resistant lung cancer cell line, indicative of its role in regulating drug response.
These data underline the indispensability of NFATc1 for successful antitumor immune responses in patients with NSCLC.<b>Significance:</b> The multifaceted role of NFATc1 in the activation and function of T cells during lung cancer development makes it a critical participant in antitumor immune responses in patients with NSCLC.<i></i>.
Here we reveal that DDIAS is a target gene of nuclear factor of activated T cells 2 (NFATc1) and is associated with cisplatin resistance in lung cancer cells.
