BZW1 Drives Immune Evasion in Lung Adenocarcinoma via Ferroptosis Suppression
Advanced Science, EarlyView.BZW1 attenuates ferroptosis by competitively binding NCOA4 and suppress ferrtinophagy‐mediated iron release. The depletion of BZW1 triggers lipid peroxidation through iron homeostasis. Extracellularly, BZW1 attenuates immunogenic cell death and reinvigorates cytotoxic T‐cell responses.
