Emerging evidence suggests that the members of the tripartite motif (TRIM) family play a crucial role in cancer development and progression. The purpose of the study was to explore TRIM52's role in tumorigenesis and its potential molecular mechanism in ovarian cancer. The study demonstrated that knockdown of TRIM52 in SKOV3 and CAOV3 cells inhibited ovarian cancer cell invasion, migration, and proliferation, and induced cell apoptosis. On the contrary, overexpression of TRIM52 in HO8910 cells showed contrary results. Further, overexpression of TRIM52 enhanced the expression of phosphorylated IKKβ and IKBα proteins and nuclear protein P65, which implied the activation of NF-kB signal pathway. Knockdown of TRIM52 downregulated the mRNA and protein levels of NF-kB signal downstream effectors of the NF-kB pathway, including MMP9, Bcl2, IL8, and TNFα, but upregulated caspase-3 expression. These results suggested that activation of the NF-kB pathway is involved in TRIM52-mediated regulation in ovarian cancer. The nude mice study further confirmed that knockdown of TRIM52 blocked tumor growth, inhibited cell proliferation, and promoted cell apoptosis. Our data strongly suggested that TRIM52 plays an oncogenic role in ovarian cancer development associated with the NF-kB signal pathway and may be a potential target for cancer therapy.
