Investigating the role of saposin B in HMA-mediated toxicity toward breast cancer cells

Abstract

Therapy-resistant cancer cells can be targeted using novel cationic amphiphilic drugs such as HMA that induce lysosomal cell death. Parallel alteration of lysosomal protein Saposin B could sensitize cells to HMA, reducing off-target effects.
