USP32-mediated stabilization of MAPK12 promotes lung adenocarcinoma progression by inhibiting autophagy-ferroptosis.
Lung adenocarcinoma (LUAD), the most common non-small cell lung cancer, often resists ferroptosis and autophagy-two tumor-suppressive, therapy-sensitive regulated cell death pathways. MAPK12 (a stress-responsive p38 MAPK kinase) boosts LUAD cell survival under oxidative stress, while USP32 (a LUAD-upregulated deubiquit...
