Targeting autophagy enhances heat stress-induced apoptosis via the ATP-AMPK-mTOR axis for hepatocellular carcinoma.
CONCLUSIONS: Heat stress induced protective autophagy against heat-induced apoptosis in HCC via the ATP-AMPK-mTOR axis, suggesting that targeting autophagy may be a promising strategy for improving the efficacy of RFA treatment for HCC.
