Dysregulation of mitochondrial function by PLK1-mediated PDHA1 phosphorylation promotes Cr(VI)-associated lung cancer progression

Qiongsi Zhang, Jia Peng, Zhiguo Li…·Xiaoqi Liu

This study shows that PLK1-mediated PDHA1 phosphorylation impairs mitochondrial function and promotes Cr(VI)-induced lung cancer progression by disrupting energy metabolism and apoptosis.
