Cystine–glutamate antiporter xCT deficiency suppresses tumor growth while preserving antitumor immunity

open access: yesProceedings of the National Academy of Sciences of the United States of America, 2019
Significance xCT, the cystine–glutamate antiporter, has been implicated in supporting both tumor growth and T cell proliferation; thus, antitumor effects of systemic xCT inhibition may be blunted by compromised antitumor immunity. This report details the

DETOXICATION OF CYANIDE BY CYSTINE

open access: yesJournal of Biological Chemistry, 1956
SUMMARY Chemical studies on the nature of the reaction product between cystine and cyanide ion support formulation of the structure as 2-imino-4-thiazoli- dinecarboxylic acid. The compound was inert metabolically when fed to the rat or when injected. On treatment with acid, a small amount of thio- cyanate was produced.

Cystine nephrolithiasis: contemporary approaches to patient management

open access: yesВестник урологии
Introduction. Cystinuria is a rare genetic disorder characterised by a markedly elevated concentration of cystine in the urine. Due to the low solubility of cystine in urine, patients with cystinuria face a lifelong increased risk of urinary stone ...

Cystine deprivation triggers CD36-mediated ferroptosis and dysfunction of tumor infiltrating CD8+ T cells

open access: yesCell Death and Disease
Cancer cells develop multiple strategies to evade T cell-mediated killing. On one hand, cancer cells may preferentially rely on certain amino acids for rapid growth and metastasis.
