Type:
Cuproptosis is a recently described form of regulated cell death that is distinct from other types such as apoptosis, necroptosis, and pyroptosis. It is primarily characterized by its direct dependence on copper and its interaction with mitochondrial processes.

-Cuproptosis begins with the intracellular accumulation of copper. This free copper binds directly to lipoylated proteins, which are enzymes involved in important mitochondrial metabolic processes such as the tricarboxylic acid (TCA) cycle.
-Protein Aggregation: The binding of copper to these lipoylated proteins induces their aggregation. This aggregation disrupts normal protein functions and compromises mitochondrial integrity.

Cuproptosis represents a unique form of regulated cell death driven by the accumulation of copper and its consequent interactions with mitochondrial lipoylated proteins.

- Review, NA, NA
eff↑, generate a large number of reactive oxygen species (ROS) when exposed to light, which could be adopted for photodynamic therapy.
Fenton↑, Cu2+ is vulnerable to the reduction to Cu+, allowing Cu to drive the Fenton reaction and produce hydroxyl radicals (·OH).
ROS↑, increasing Cu ions in cancer tissue makes an antitumor impact that mainly involves OS by triggering the Fenton reaction, which can produce ROS
eff↑, compared with other metals (iron, chromium, cobalt and nickel), the Cu-based Fenton reaction can react in wider pH range
mtDam↑, Excessive Cu can induce the toxic level of ROS that may aggravate the mitochondrial ROS, causing mitochondrial damage
BAX↑, Cu-induced ROS increased Bax (pro-apoptotic protein), while Bcl2 (anti-apoptotic protein) was decreased

MMP↓,
Cyt‑c↑, releasing CytC that activated Caspase3
Casp3↑,
ER Stress↑, Nano-CuO) triggers OS by ROS, thus stimulating endoplasmic reticulum (ER)-stress
CHOP↑, which thereby enhanced the expression of CHOP
Apoptosis↑, and CHOP-induced apoptosis
selectivity↑, In fact, autophagy induced by copper can either protect cells from death or contribute to cell death, depending on autophagic flux, which is associated with the concentration of copper.
eff↑, combining artemisinin (ART) and copper peroxide nanodots to enhance autophagy and ferroptosis that produced highly cancer toxic reaction
Pyro↑, Copper-Based Pyroptosis
Paraptosis↑, Copper-Based Paraptosis
Cupro↑, Copper-Based Cuproptosis
ChemoSen↑, studies suggested that Cu-MOFs might be a robust nanoplatform for enhancing chemotherapy activity of Cu-organic compounds.
eff↑, CuS NPs had the ability to directly target cancer cells and then induce in nucleus by modification of RGD and TAT peptides, thus heating cancer cell to exhaustive apoptosis through 980 nm NIR irradiation

eff↑, copper nanoparticles can be used as effective agents in chemodynamic therapy, phototherapy, hyperthermia, and immunotherapy.
eff↓, Elevated copper concentrations may promote tumor growth, angiogenesis, and metastasis by affecting cellular processes
selectivity↑, Copper nanoparticles also can selectively attack cancer cells and spare healthy cells This selectivity is attributed to the EPR effect, which enables nanoparticles to accumulate in tumor tissue by exploiting leaky blood vessels
DNAdam↑, Copper has been found to induce DNA damage and oxidation through the formation of ROS.
eff↑, Tumor cells suffering from oxygen deficiency often have an increased concentration of CTR-1, which facilitates the transport of copper(I) into the cells
eff↑, The results demonstrate the promising capabilities of 64CuCl2 as a valuable tool for both diagnosis and therapy in various types of cancer
eff↑, nanoparticles have remarkable properties, including a large surface area to volume ratio, excellent compatibility with living organisms, and the ability to generate ROS when exposed to an acidic tumor microenvironment
eff↑, Several studies have shown that copper nanoparticles can be used as effective agents in chemodynamic therapy (CDT)
Fenton↑, CDT is a promising treatment strategy for cancer that utilizes the in situ Fenton reaction, which is activated by endogenous substances, such as GSH and H2O2 without the need for external energy input
