Cells are dependent on their lipid composition for establishing and modulating membrane structural integrity, morphology, metabolism, and other cellular functions. For example, among the thousands of lipid species that compose eukaryotic cell membranes, the abundance and localization of polyunsaturated fatty acid (PUFA)-containing phospholipids (PUFA-PLs) are major factors in determining the fluidity of cell membranes. 1 Because the cis conformation of double bonds in PUFAs hinders efficient stacking of these fatty acid tails, elevated levels of PUFA-PLs contribute to increasing membrane fluidity and thinning. PUFAs are, however, susceptible to lipid peroxidation via reaction with molecular oxygen at bis-allylic positions, catalyzed by lipoxygenases or through non-enzymatic mechanisms. Oxygenated PUFAs can serve as lipid signals, regulating inflammatory processes, for example. However, peroxy-PUFAs are prone to decompose into reactive species, which can damage biomolecules, such as proteins and nucleic acids. Thus, cells depend on a critical network of proteins to repair PUFA-PL peroxides. A key protein at the center of this repair network is the selenoprotein glutathione peroxidase 4 (GPX4); it is the only peroxidase in mammals capable of reducing phospholipid hydroperoxides within cell membranes. When GPX4 activity is compromised, lipid peroxidation can cause ferroptosis, an oxidative iron-dependent form of nonapoptotic cell death. Ferroptosis has been implicated in degenerative diseases; for example, ferroptosis inhibitors are protective in models of Parkinson, s, Huntington, s and Alzheimer, s diseases. 2 On the other hand, ferroptosis induced by exogenous agents is selectively lethal toward tumor cells that are addicted to GPX4 repair activity, which has suggested that inducing ferroptosis may be a beneficial approach to treating some cancers. 2, 3Cancer cells from tissues of diverse origins have been screened for their sensitivity to ferroptosis-inducing compounds. 3 Ferroptosis inducers, including GPX4 inhibitors, were found to selectively target cancers with a mesenchymal or otherwise drug-resistant signature. Consistent with the mesenchymal state being associated with drug resistance, another study on persister cancer cells, which are proposed to escape from conventional cytotoxic treatment through a dormant state and then revive to cause tumor relapse, revealed a similar selective dependency on the GPX4 pathway. 4 Indeed, GPX4 inhibitors were among the compounds most selectively lethal to such persister cells.
