NEK2-AURKA axis drives ubiquitin-dependent IFT88 degradation to suppress ciliogenesis and promote basal-type bladder cancer
A NEK2-AURKA-IFT88 pathway that promotes ubiquitin-dependent IFT88 degradation and cilia loss in basal MIBC models is identified, providing a preclinical basis for further testing of NEK2 targeting in cilia-deficient basal MIBC.
