Dyclonine rescues frataxin deficiency in animal models and buccal cells of patients with Friedreich's ataxia. [PDF]
Inherited deficiency in the mitochondrial protein frataxin (FXN) causes the rare disease Friedreich's ataxia (FA), for which there is no successful treatment. We identified a redox deficiency in FA cells and used this to model the disease.

Selenoprotein gene nomenclature [PDF]
The human genome contains 25 genes coding for selenocysteine-containing proteins (selenoproteins). These proteins are involved in a variety of functions, most notably redox homeostasis.

Extracellular CIRP Promotes GPX4-Mediated Ferroptosis in Sepsis
Sepsis is characterized by life-threatening organ dysfunction caused by a dysregulated host response to infection. Extracellular cold-inducible RNA-binding protein (eCIRP) is a damage-associated molecular pattern (DAMP) that promotes inflammation and induces cell death via apoptosis, NETosis, and/or pyroptosis.

The role of EGFR double minutes in modulating the response of malignant gliomas to radiotherapy. [PDF]
EGFR amplification in cells having double minute chromosomes (DM) is commonly found in glioblastoma multiforme (GBM); however, how much it contributes to the current failure to treat GBM successfully is unknown.

A 3D cell death assay to quantitatively determine ferroptosis in spheroids [PDF]
The failure of drug efficacy in clinical trials remains a big issue in cancer research. This is largely due to the limitations of two-dimensional (2D) cell cultures, the most used tool in drug screening.

GPX4, ferroptosis, and diseases
GPX4 (Glutathione peroxidase 4) serves as a crucial intracellular regulatory factor, participating in various physiological processes and playing a significant role in maintaining the redox homeostasis within the body. Ferroptosis, a form of iron-dependent non-apoptotic cell death, has gained considerable attention in recent years due to its ...

Structure–activity relationships of GPX4 inhibitor warheads
Direct inhibition of GPX4 requires covalent modification of the active-site selenocysteine. While phenotypic screening has revealed that activated alkyl chlorides and masked nitrile oxides can inhibit GPX4 covalently, a systematic assessment of potential electrophilic warheads with the capacity to inhibit cellular GPX4 has been lacking. Here, we survey
