Downregulation of ATP5F1D inhibits mtROS/NLRP3/caspase-1/GSDMD axis to suppress pyroptosis-mediated malignant progression of endometrial cancer

In developed countries, endometrial cancer (EC) is the most prevalent gynecological cancer and its occurrence is associated with chronic inflammation. ATP5F1D is a subunit of ATP synthase (complex V), as well as the important component of mitochondrial electron transport chain (ETC). ETC play compelling roles in carcinogenesis. To date, little is known about the role of ATP5F1D in EC.
