Macroautophagy/autophagy deregulation has been observed in perpetuated inflammation and the proliferation of tumor cells. However, the mechanisms underlying these changes have yet to be well-identified. UVRAG is one of the key players of autophagy, but its role in vivo remained puzzling. Our recent study utilized a mouse model with inducible expression of a cancer-derived frameshift (FS) mutation inUVRAGthat dominant-negatively inhibits wild-type UVRAG, resulting in impaired stimulus-induced autophagy. The systemically compromised autophagy, particularly mitophagy, notably increases inflammation and associated pathologies. Furthermore, our discovery indicates that time-dependent autophagy suppression and ensuing CTNNB1/β-catenin activation may serve as one tumor-promoting mechanism underpinning age-related cancer susceptibility.
