研究已发现数十种调节性细胞死亡方式,包括铜死亡、铁死亡以及新鉴定的双硫死亡(disulfidptosis)等。其中,双硫死亡是由细胞内过量胱氨酸积累引起的二硫化物应激导致的细胞死亡方式,通常在葡萄糖饥饿的条件下发生。溶质载体家族7成员11(...研究已发现数十种调节性细胞死亡方式,包括铜死亡、铁死亡以及新鉴定的双硫死亡(disulfidptosis)等。其中,双硫死亡是由细胞内过量胱氨酸积累引起的二硫化物应激导致的细胞死亡方式,通常在葡萄糖饥饿的条件下发生。溶质载体家族7成员11(solute carrier family 7 member 11,SLC7A11)作为参与多种新型细胞死亡方式的特定分子在肿瘤生长或进程中发挥了关键作用。本文针对双硫死亡并围绕其关键分子SLC7A11在肿瘤中的研究进展作一综述。展开更多
