Comparative representation of MRPS5 signaling in liver cancer stem cells and HCC cells. In LCSCs, SIRT1 deacetylates MRPS5, which promotes its mitochondrial localization. Mitochondrial MRPS5 increases oxidative phosphorylation and consequently ROS. However, SIRT1 also promotes UPRmt activity, which decreases ROS levels. Conversely, in HCC cells, MRPS5 is localized in the nucleus where its activity promotes increased cellular glycolysis.
