Synthetic lethality of combined ULK1 defection and p53 restoration induce pyroptosis by directly upregulating GSDME transcription and cleavage activation through ROS/NLRP3 signaling

Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND: High expression of ubiquitin ligase MDM2 is a primary cause of p53 inactivation in many tumors, making it a promising therapeutic target. However, MDM2 inhibitors have failed in clinical trials due to p53-induced feedback that enhances MDM2 expression. This underscores the urgent need to find an effective adaptive genotype or combination of targets. METHODS: Kinome-wide CRISPR/Cas9 knockout screen was...
