A mTORC1-mediated cyst(e)ine sensing mechanism governing GPX4 synthesis and ferroptosis
Ferroptosis is a cell death mechanism triggered by lipid peroxidation. Our recent study linked cyst(e)ine availability with glutathione peroxidase 4 (GPX4) protein synthesis and ferroptosis mitigation via a Rag-mechanistic target of rapamycin complex 1 ...

Activation of the NRF2 antioxidant program generates an imbalance in central carbon metabolism in cancer [PDF]
During tumorigenesis, the high metabolic demand of cancer cells results in increased production of reactive oxygen species. To maintain oxidative homeostasis, tumor cells increase their antioxidant production through hyperactivation of the NRF2 pathway ...

CHIN117 is a dual cysteinyl leukotriene receptor 1 (CYSLTR1) antagonist and G‐protein‐coupled bile acid receptor 1 (GPBAR1) agonist. In the liver, GPBAR1 and CYSLTR1 are coexpressed by liver sinusoidal endothelial cells (LSECs), HSCs, circulating monocytes/macrophages, and liver resident macrophages (Kupffer cells).

BAP1 suppresses tumor development by inducing ferroptosis upon SLC7A11 repression
The tumor suppressor BRCA1-associated protein 1 (BAP1) is a deubiquitinase that removes histone 2A ubiquitination. How BAP1 suppresses tumor development remains elusive.
