PINK1-PTEN axis promotes ovarian cancer metastasis and chemoresistance independent of Parkin. PINK1 interacts with and phosphorylates PTEN at Ser179 in ovarian cancer, leading to increased p-AKT levels and inhibition of PTEN nuclear import. This, in turn, promotes metastasis and chemoresistance. Inhibiting PINK1 may be an effective method for restraining metastasis and chemoresistance in ovarian cancer
