Biagio Ricciuti: In vivo vulnerabilities to GPX4 and HDAC inhibitors in BRAF V600E lung adenocarcinoma
Biagio Ricciuti shared a post on LinkedIn about his recent paper, commenting:
“Our collaborative effort uncovering in vivo vulnerabilities to GPX4 and HDAC inhibitors in drug-tolerant versus drug-resistant BRAF V600E Lung Adenocarcinoma (LUAD) is out in Cell Reports Medicine. Led by Marie-Julie Nokin, David Santamaria, and Chiara Ambrogio.
Whole-genome CRISPR screening and Ribonucleic acid (RNA) sequencing identified ferroptosis as drug-tolerant persister (DTP) vulnerability in BRAF V600E LUAD.
Persister cells suffered from lipid peroxidation and were sensitive to ferroptosis upon GPX4 inhibition in vivo.
Acquired alterations leading to Mitogen-activated Protein Kinase (MAPK) reactivation enhanced cystine transport to boost GPX4-independent antioxidant responses sensitized tumors to HDAC inhibition.”
