Abstract

Lung cancer is the most common malignant tumor type and it is associated with poor prognosis. The identification of potential biomarkers is of great significance for the early diagnosis and treatment of lung cancer. Non‑small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) is the most common pathological type of lung cancer. The present study aimed to investigate the mechanism via which thyroid hormone receptor‑interacting protein 13 (TRIP13) participates in the malignant progression of NSCLC. Immunohistochemistry, reverse transcription‑quantitative PCR and western blotting were used to assess the expression level of TRIP13. According to The Cancer Genome Atlas database, TRIP13 was upregulated in NSCLC tissues compared with adjacent normal tissues. Moreover, TRIP13 knockdown increased apoptosis, induced cell cycle arrest in the S phase and inhibited the proliferation, invasion and migration of H1299 cells in vitro. Furthermore, TRIP13 upregulation was closely associated with tumor metastasis via epithelial‑mesenchymal transformation. In conclusion, TRIP13 could promote the malignant progression of lung cancer, and TRIP13 may be a potential biomarker for the early diagnosis and treatment of NSCLC.
