“Mechanisms of lipid quality control and ferroptosis resistance in cancer”

Ferroptosis is a newly defined cell death pathway caused by lipid peroxide accumulation. Evidence suggests ferroptosis is a promising target for cancer treatment, but some cancer cells resist this type of cell death. We identified FSP1 and LRP8 regulating ferroptosis resistance by different mechanisms, uncovering new cancer vulnerabilities for therapeutic targeting.
