AMBRA1 and FAK1: crosstalking for improved targeted therapy in melanoma

Through genetically engineered mouse models of melanoma, we identified Autophagy/beclin 1 regulator 1 (Ambra1) as novel tumor-suppressor in melanoma. In these settings, loss of Ambra1 associated with the hyperactivation of focal adhesion kinase 1 (Fak1) signaling, the inhibition of which resulted in...
