Abstract
Ferroptosis is mediated by toxic accumulation of lipid peroxides. A new study reports that the transcription factor ZEB1 drives ferroptosis sensitivity by regulating the synthesis of highly oxidizable poly-unsaturated fatty acids. This creates a selective vulnerability that can be exploited to eliminate aggressive mesenchymal cancer cells.
