Aberrant SIRT6 expression contributes to melanoma growth: Role of the autophagy paradox and IGF-AKT signaling
7 Dec 2017
Abstract excerpt
Melanoma is among the most life-threatening cancers. The pathogenesis of melanoma has not been fully elucidated. Recently, dysregulated macroautophagy/autophagy has been found to play a critical but inconsistent role in modulating melanoma growth at different stages, with the regulatory mechanism unclear. The histone deacetylase SIRT6 (sirtuin 6) is a known autophagy regulator, and its involvement in cancer...
