Figure 6 Schematic representation of tumor microenvironment model with function of Linc01010-mitogen-activated protein kinase kinase 6-programmed death-ligand 1 with breast cancer cells and natural killer cells. We investigated the mechanism of long chain non-coding RNA Linc01010 when provoked by Chidamide with mitogen-activated protein kinase kinase 6 interaction, and its ability to induce the p38-mitogen-activated protein kinases pathway, resulting in an increase in downstream programmed death-ligand 1 (PD-L1). The increase of PD-L1 reduced the secretion of tumor necrosis factor-related apoptosis-inducing ligand by natural killer cells in the tumor microenvironment through programmed death-1, and ultimately moderated the pharmacological effect of Chidamide on breast cancer cells. The results obtained from this study can provide a strong basis for enhancing the effectiveness of current anti-breast cancer medications and identifying new targets for drug resistance. CHid: Chidamide; MAPK: Mitogen-activated protein kinases; MKK6: Mitogen-activated protein kinase kinase 6; NK: Natural killer; PD-L1: Programmed death-ligand 1; PD-1: Programmed death-1; TRAIL: Tumor necrosis factor-related apoptosis-inducing ligand.
