Drug-tolerant persister cancer cells are vulnerable to GPX4 inhibition. [PDF]
Acquired drug resistance prevents cancer therapies from achieving stable and complete responses. Emerging evidence implicates a key role for non-mutational drug resistance mechanisms underlying the survival of residual cancer 'persister' cells.

Targeting ferroptosis in breast cancer
Ferroptosis is a recently discovered distinct type of regulated cell death caused by the accumulation of lipid-based ROS. Metabolism and expression of specific genes affect the occurrence of ferroptosis, making it a promising therapeutic target to manage

Glutathione Metabolism in Renal Cell Carcinoma Progression and Implications for Therapies [PDF]
A significantly increased level of the reactive oxygen species (ROS) scavenger glutathione (GSH) has been identified as a hallmark of renal cell carcinoma (RCC). The proposed mechanism for increased GSH levels is to counteract damaging ROS to sustain the

Cadmium induces liver dysfunction and ferroptosis through the endoplasmic stress-ferritinophagy axis
Cadmium (Cd) is a type of high-risk heavy metal that can damage organs such as the liver, but its mechanism is not yet clear. Ferroptosis is a newly discovered mode of regulatory cell death. We explored whether ferroptosis is involved in Cd-induced liver

Expression of a catalytically inactive mutant form of glutathione peroxidase 4 (Gpx4) confers a dominant-negative effect in male fertility. [PDF]
The selenoenzyme Gpx4 is essential for early embryogenesis and cell viability for its unique function to prevent phospholipid oxidation. Recently, the cytosolic form of Gpx4 was identified as an upstream regulator of a novel form of non-apoptotic cell ...
