Description

Yu Wang and six co-authors show how BEX2, a growth-linked protein, steers self-eating in lung cancer cells. Their paper is from two thousand twenty-five. Self-eating, or autophagy, lets tumour cells live through stress and can blunt drugs. A key growth path, PI3K to mTOR, is a prime dial for it, but BEX2's role was unclear.

A known self-eating drug lifts BEX2 in the cells. BEX2 binds the PI3K core part and blocks its join with its mate part, which dims the whole path. With that path dimmed, self-eating flux rises. The chain ties BEX2 to cell clean-up through one named contact, a point that rests on the core part's presence.
