GPX4 (Glutathione Peroxidase 4) is a selenoprotein that plays a crucial role in the regulation of ferroptosis, a form of programmed cell death characterized by the iron-dependent accumulation of lipid reactive oxygen species (ROS).
GPX4 has been found to be upregulated in several tumor types, promoting cancer cell survival and resistance to therapy. For instance, GPX4 overexpression has been observed in renal cell carcinoma, pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma, and triple-negative breast cancer, among others.
-GPX4 is known as a lipid peroxidation inhibitor protein, and its antioxidant effect is closely related to ferrous iron
