Inhibiting system xC− and glutathione biosynthesis – a potential Achilles' heel in mutant-p53 cancers

Effective therapeutic strategies to target mutant tumor protein p53 (TP53, best known as p53) cancers remain an unmet medical need. We found that mutant p53 impairs the function of nuclear factor (erythroid-derived 2)-like 2 (NFE2L2, commonly known as NRF2), suppresses solute carrier family 7 member...
