    Analysis of Protein Degradation in Ferroptosis

    The ubiquitin-proteasome system (UPS) is a highly conserved cellular mechanism that degrades and recycles proteins in eukaryotic cells. It involves the tagging of specific target proteins with ubiquitin, a sma...

    Characterization of Arsenic-Induced Cancer Stem-Like Cells

    Arsenic is a well-known human carcinogen. However, the mechanisms underlying arsenic-induced carcinogenesis remain elusive. Here we show that chronic and low level of arsenic stress induces transformation of t...
