| Nuclear factor erythroid 2-related factor 2 (Nrf2) plays a pivotal role in promoting chemoresistance by reg- ulation of antioxidants and detoxification enzymes. Her2 is a member of tyrosine kinase receptor family with a key function in resistance of cancer cells to chemotherapeutics. The aim of this study was to investigate the possible cross talk between Nrf2 and Her2 mediated signaling pathways in development of oxaliplatin resistance in colon cancer cells. We first generated oxaliplatin-resistant LS174T and SW480 colon cancer cells with different Her2 expression levels by employing IC50 concentrations followed by a resting period. We evaluated the via- bility and apoptosis of the cells by MTT and flow cytometry assays, respectively. Nrf2 and Her2 gene expression levels were examined by qRT-PCR. The morphology analysis and combination index calculation were performed using the ImagJ and CompuSyn softwares, respectively. Development of resistant cells revealed a marked in- crease in half maximal inhibitory concentration (IC50) value from 3.95 ± 0.92 μM to 29.27 ± 3.13 μM in SW480 cells and 377 ± 46 nM to 9.59 ± 0.76 μM in LS174T cells with a significant change in morphology of the cells from elongated to small round shape (p < 0.05). Her2 expression level was increased in both types of resistant cells, but the Nrf2 expression was increased in LS174T resistant (LS174T/Res) cells and decreased in SW480/Res cells which were consistent with the level of resistance in these cells (25 fold increase in IC50 value in LS174T/Res cells versus 7 fold increase in this value in SW480/Res cells). Inhibition of either Nrf2 or Her2 alone and in combination caused a significant increase in oxaliplatin-induced cytotoxicity and apoptosis with maximum effects in SW480/Res cells with low Her2 and Nrf2 expression levels. Altogether, our results suggest that inhibition of Nrf2 signaling in colon cancer patients with Her2 overexpression can be considered as an important strategy to overcome oxaliplatin resistance |
