Xc- System as a Possible Target for ConBr Lectin Interaction in Glioma Cells
Studies have revealed the dependence of glioma cells on iron, making them sensitive to ferroptosis. Ferroptosis can be triggered by inhibition of the xc- system, resulting in redox imbalance and membrane lipid peroxidation. The xc- system is composed of two coupled proteins, xCT and CD98hc. The cont...
