The cyst(e)ine/glutathione (GSH)/glutathione peroxidase 4 (GPX4) axis is the most frequently targeted pathway to trigger the ferroptosis cascade and suppress tumor growth. Two recent studies present additional mechanisms underlying cystine starvation-induced ferroptosis apart from impaired GSH synthesis.
半胱氨酸/谷胱甘肽 (GSH)/谷胱甘肽过氧化物酶 4 (GPX4) 轴是触发铁死亡级联反应和抑制肿瘤生长的最常靶向途径。最近的两项研究除了表明 GSH 合成受损外,还提出了胱氨酸饥饿诱导铁死亡的其他机制。
