CT45A1‐mediated MLC2 (MYL9) phosphorylation promotes natural killer cell resistance and outer cell fate in a cell‐in‐cell structure, potentiating the progression of microsatellite... by Hao‐Wei Teng, Hsiang‐Yueh Huang, Chun‐Chi Lin, Yuh‐Ching Twu, Wen‐Hao Yang, Wen‐Chun Lin, Hsin‐Yi Lan, Yen‐Yu Lin, Wei‐Lun Hwang

“…However, CT45A1‐expressing MSI‐H CRC cells, but not MSS CRC cells, showed higher resistance to natural killer (NK) cell cytotoxicity and served as outer cells in homotypic CIC structures, preventing exogenous or therapeutic antibody access to inner CRC cells. Inactivating RHO‐ROCK/MLCK‐MLC2 signaling with small‐molecule inhibitors or short‐hairpin RNAs (shRNAs) targeting myosin light chain kinase (MYLK) abolished NK cell resistance and reduced the outer cell fate of CT45A1‐expressing MSI‐H CRC cells. …”
