Lipoprotein Uptake through Glycosaminoglycans Blocks Ferroptosis in Cancer
Major Finding: Uptake of exogenous lipoproteins through glycosaminoglycans protects cancer cells from ferroptosis.Concept: Lipoproteins inhibit ferroptosis by delivering α-tocopherol, a form of vitamin E, to cancer cells.Impact: Blockade of glycosaminoglycans induces ferroptosis and represents a novel therapeutic target in cancer.
