Cell polarity proteins promote macropinocytosis in response to metabolic stress - Nature Communications
Cancer cells rely on macropinocytosis to survive in a nutrient-deprived environment. Here, Lambies et al. identified various members of the cell polarity protein network as essential regulators of mac...
