Significant correlations between MV-Edm-induced cell death and the autophagy-related markers, such as LC3B-II/LC3B-I ratio and SQSTM1/p62 level were observed in A549 and H1299 cells (Fig. 2a), suggesting a relationship between induction of autophagy and oncolytic activity following MV-Edm infection. Here, SQSTM1 is linked to infection.
