Coordinate autophagy and translation inhibition enhance cell death in melanoma

Abstract excerpt

Melanoma treatments are necessary when surgically curable treatments are limited. The major challenge of targeted therapy for treating malignant melanoma is acquired drug resistance. Translation and autophagy pathways are interconnected and involved in developing cancer drug resistance. We hypothesized that coordinate inhibition of autophagy and translation would lead to a better anticancer effect. In the present...
