Dauricine Overcomes Osimertinib Resistance in Lung Cancer by Inducing Ferroptosis via Stabilizing SAT1. [PDF]
Our study explores the potential of dauricine, a bioactive compound from Menispermum dauricum, to overcome osimertinib resistance in lung cancer. We demonstrate that dauricine, when combined with osimertinib, induces ferroptosis in resistant lung cancer cells by stabilizing SAT1, a key enzyme in oxidative stress regulation.
