⚖️ Evidence Matrix5 supports3 contradicts
Supports
Palmitoylation-dependent regulation of GPX4 suppresses ferroptosis.
Supports
DHODH-mediated ferroptosis defence is a targetable vulnerability in cancer.
Supports
Palmitoylation of GPX4 via the targetable ZDHHC8 determines ferroptosis sensitivity and antitumor immunity.
Supports
STING aggravates ferroptosis-dependent myocardial ischemia-reperfusion injury by targeting GPX4 for autophagic degradation.
Contradicts
Molecular mechanisms of ferroptosis and their involvement in brain diseases.
