Ferroptosis and Nrf2 Signaling in Head and Neck Cancer: Resistance Mechanisms and Therapeutic Prospects
13 Aug 2025
Abstract excerpt
Ferroptosis is an iron-dependent form of regulated cell death marked by lipid peroxidation in polyunsaturated phospholipids. In head and neck cancer (HNC), where resistance to chemotherapy and immunotherapy is common, ferroptosis offers a mechanistically distinct strategy to overcome therapeutic failure. However, cancer cells often evade ferroptosis via activation of nuclear factor erythroid 2-related factor 2...
