SIRT7 promotes mitochondrial biogenesis to render the adaptive resistance to MAPK inhibition in melanoma

Melanoma, arising from the malignant transformation of melanocytes, stands as the most lethal type of skin cancer. While significant strides have been made in targeted therapy and immunotherapy, substantially enhancing therapeutic efficacy, the prognosis for melanoma patients remains unoptimistic. SIRT7, a nuclear-localized deacetylase, plays a pivotal role in maintaining cellular homeostasis and adapting to external stressors in melanoma, with its activity closely tied to intracellular nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NAD
