Camptothecin Inhibits Neddylation to Activate the Protective Autophagy Through NF-κB/AMPK/mTOR/ULK1 Axis in Human Esophageal Cancer Cells

The neddylation pathway is overactivated in esophageal cancer. Our previous studies indicated that inactivation of neddylation by the NAE inhibitor induced apoptosis and autophagy in cancer cells. Camptothecin (CPT), a well-known anticancer agent, could induce apoptosis and autophagy in cancer cells...
