Among the most widely used mechanisms are reduction-sensitive disulfide (-SS-) and diselenide (-SeSe-) linkages, which can be cleaved by intracellular GSH to activate drug release or imaging functions [16]

For instance, upon amino acid stimulation, cyclin-dependent kinase 5 (CDK5) phosphorylates PRMT1 at S307 to promote its transportation to lysosomes in the cytoplasm for the methylation of WDR24 and subsequently activates the mTORC1 pathway, leading to tumor growth [83] (Figure 3A)
This process involves several steps, such as additional DNA mutations and/or genetic imprints, and is typically accompanied by the activation of protooncogenes, inactivation of tumor suppressor genes, and/or inactivation of genomic stability genes (de Melo Pereira et al., 2020 )
