Breast cancer secretes anti-ferroptotic MUFAs and depends on selenoprotein synthesis for metastasis
21 Oct 2024
Abstract excerpt
The limited availability of therapeutic options for patients with triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC) contributes to the high rate of metastatic recurrence and poor prognosis. Ferroptosis is a type of cell death caused by iron-dependent lipid peroxidation and counteracted by the antioxidant activity of the selenoprotein GPX4. Here, we show that TNBC cells secrete an anti-ferroptotic factor in the extracellular...
