p62/Sqstm1 promotes malignancy of HCV-positive hepatocellular carcinoma through Nrf2-dependent metabolic reprogramming

Dysregulation of p62 has been implicated in tumorigenesis. Here, the authors show that p62 promotes hepatocellular carcinoma by reprogramming glucose and glutamine metabolism through Nrf2 and present a novel compound that can inhibit p62 action thus sensitizing cancer cells to chemotherapy.
