Pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) and cholangiocarcinoma (CCA) are malignant tumors with poor prognosis because of the limited effectiveness of traditional chemotherapy and few effective molecular therapeutic agents. Here, we determined the essential roles of Zic family member 5 (ZIC5) in the survival of PDAC and CCA cells. The results showed that ZIC5 is strongly expressed in PDAC and CCA tissues, while ZIC5 expression is barely observed in most normal human adult tissues. Furthermore, ZIC5 expression is related to poor prognosis of patients with PDAC. ZIC5 knockdown via small interfering RNA decreased the phosphorylation of signal transducer and activator of transcription 3 (STAT3), a protein that is associated with PDAC and CCA aggressiveness. However, ZIC5 knockdown induced cell death regardless of STAT3 activation, which is promoted by interleukin (IL) −6, a factor associated with inflammation. Furthermore, knockdown of ZIC5 in PDAC and CCA cells additively or synergistically induced apoptosis with the anti-cancer drug gemcitabine. Thus, ZIC5 constitutes a potential therapeutic target for the treatment of PDAC and CCA. ZIC5 is expressed in PDAC and CCA, while barely observed in normal adult tissues. ZIC5 expression is related to poor prognosis of patients with PDAC. ZIC5 knockdown induces apoptosis in several PDAC and CCA cell lines. Knockdown of ZIC5 additively or synergistically induces apoptosis with gemcitabine.
