Description We here demonstrate that squamous transition occurs concomitantly with the acquisition of TKI resistance in xenograft tumors derived from EGFR-mutant PC9 cell. Perturbation of squamous transition via DNp63 overexpression or knockout results in significant changes of TKI responses, indicating a direct causality between squamous transition and TKI resistance. Integrative RNA-seq and ATAC-seq analyses along with functional studies reveal that FOXA1 plays a pivotal role in maintaining adenomatous lineage and contributing to TKI sensitivity. We further find that co-expression of FOXM1 and knockout of FOXA1 fully recapitulates squamous transition and TKI resistance in PC9 xenografts and patient-derived xenograft (PDX) models.
