Abstract

Abstract

En 中文
Tumour location dictates ferroptosis resistance. A study indicates that peritumoural adipose tissue aids tumours in evading ferroptosis by supplying tryptophan metabolites, including kynurenine and 3-hydroxykynurenine, which block NCOA4-mediated ferritinophagy to lower levels of labile iron and suppress lipid peroxidation.
