FAM107A loss facilitates TTK‐OPTN‐mediated mitophagy to drive docetaxel resistance in castration‐resistant prostate cancer

open access: yesInterdisciplinary Medicine, EarlyView.
In the progression of docetaxel resistance, downregulation of FAM107A releases its transcriptional repression of TTK, leading to TTK upregulation. TTK enhances the interaction and phosphorylation of OPTN. This activates mitophagy in tumor cells, facilitates clearance of damaged mitochondria, reduces intracellular reactive oxygen species accumulation ...
