Pharmacological inhibition of cystine–glutamate exchange induces endoplasmic reticulum stress and ferroptosis
Exchange of extracellular cystine for intracellular glutamate by the antiporter system xc− is implicated in numerous pathologies. Pharmacological agents that inhibit system xc− activity with high potency have long been sought, but have remained elusive. In this study, we report that the small molecu...
