Abstract excerpt
Ferroptosis, marked by iron-dependent lipid peroxidation, may present an Achilles heel for the treatment of cancers. Ferroptosis suppressor protein-1 (FSP1), as the second ferroptosis mainstay, efficiently prevents lipid peroxidation via NAD(P)H-dependent reduction of quinones. Because its molecular mechanisms have remained obscure, we studied numerous FSP1 mutations present in cancer or identified by untargeted...
