| Type: type of cell death |
| Type of programmed cell death dependent on iron. Ferroptosis is a form of regulated cell death characterized by the accumulation of lipid peroxides to lethal levels. It is distinct from other forms of cell death, such as apoptosis, necrosis, and autophagy. The process of ferroptosis is heavily dependent on iron metabolism and reactive oxygen species (ROS). The accumulation of lipid peroxides is a hallmark of ferroptosis. This can occur when the antioxidant defenses, such as glutathione and selenoproteins, are overwhelmed or inhibited. Many cancer cells upregulate GPX4 to evade ferroptosis, making it a potential target for therapy. It has been described that GPX4, xCT and ACSL-4 are the main targets in the regulation of ferroptosis. |
| Nasopharyngeal carcinoma, or nasopharynx cancer, is the most common cancer originating in the nasopharynx, most commonly in the postero-lateral nasopharynx or pharyngeal recess, accounting for 50% of cases. Nasopharyngeal carcinoma (NPC) is a type of cancer that originates in the epithelial cells lining the nasopharynx, which is the upper part of the throat located behind the nose and above the soft palate. -(NPC) is a malignant tumor which is commonly found in East Asia and Africa. |
