Abstract excerpt
Mitochondria-eating protein (Mieap) plays a critical role in mitochondrial quality control (MQC) and functions as a p53-inducible tumor suppressor. This study aimed to examine its role in gastric cancer (GC) and esophageal cancer (EC). GC cells were infected with Mieap-overexpressing adenovirus (Ad-Mieap) and subjected to fluorescence-activated cell sorting (FACS), western blotting, and caspase assays....
