EMP2 acts as a suppressor of melanoma and is negatively regulated by mTOR-mediated autophagy
Abstract
Cutaneous melanoma is one of the most common malignant skin tumors and advanced melanoma is usually associated with a poor prognosis. In the current study, we demonstrated the tumor suppressing role of epithelial membrane protein-2 (EMP2) by inducing apoptosis in a A375 human melanoma cell line. Mechanistically, the low expression of EMP2 in melanoma is partially due to autophagic protein degradation mediated by the mTOR pathway. These results...
