PDZK1‐ULK1 Axis Triggers Lipophagy to Inhibit Tumor Progression and Sunitinib Resistance in Clear Cell Renal Cell Carcinoma

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
This study reveals that PDZK1 loss impairs ULK1‐mediated lipophagy, driving lipid droplet accumulation and sunitinib resistance in clear cell renal cell carcinoma. PDZK1 inhibits LEF1 nuclear translocation, enhancing ULK1 transcription. Pharmacological ULK1 activation resensitizes resistant tumors to sunitinib.
