inhibits nuclear translocation of TFEB, the master transcription factor for lysosomal biogenesis.

Unlabelled: is a highly infectious, Gram-negative, obligate intracellular bacterium and the causative agent of human Q fever. The Containing Vacuole (CCV) is a modified phagolysosome that forms through fusion with host endosomes and lysosomes. While an initial acidic pH < 4.

FDPS cooperates with PTEN loss to promote prostate cancer progression through modulation of small GTPases/AKT axis.

Farnesyl diphosphate synthase (FDPS), a mevalonate pathway enzyme, is highly expressed in several cancers, including prostate cancer (PCa). To date, the mechanistic, functional, and clinical significance of FDPS in cancer remains unexplored. We evaluated the FDPS expression and its cancer-associated phenotypes using in vitro and in vivo methods in PTEN-deficient and sufficient human and mouse PCa cells and tumors.
