p38β MAPK mediates ULK1-dependent induction of autophagy in skeletal muscle of tumor-bearing mice
Muscle wasting is the key manifestation of cancer-associated cachexia, a lethal metabolic disorder seen in over 50% of cancer patients. Autophagy is activated in cachectic muscle of cancer hosts along with the ubiquitin-proteasome pathway (UPP), contributing to accelerated protein degradation and mu...
