PURPL represses autophagic cell death to promote cutaneous melanoma by modulating ULK1 phosphorylation

Abstract Uncontrolled overactivation of autophagy may lead to autophagic cell death, suppression of which is a pro-survival strategy for tumors. However, mechanisms involving key regulators in modulating autophagic cell death remain poorly defined. Here, we report a novel long noncoding RNA, p53 upr...
