The tumor suppressor protein p53 and the ferroptosis network

Abstract

ABSTRACT Ferroptosis is a form of lipid peroxidation‐induced cell death that can be regulated in many ways, from altering the activity of antioxidant enzymes to the level of transcription factors. The p53 tumor suppressor is 'the guardian of the genome' that participates in the control of cell survival and division under various stresses. Beyond its effects on apoptosis, autophagy, and cell cycle, p53 also regulates ferroptosis either through a transcriptional or posttranslational mechanism. On one hand, p53 can enhance ferroptosis by inhibiting the expression of SLC7A11 (solute carrier family 7 member 11) or by enhancing that of SAT1 (spermidine/spermine N1‐acetyltransferase 1) and GLS2 (glutaminase 2). On the other hand, p53 suppresses ferroptosis through the direct inhibition of DPP4 (dipeptidyl peptidase 4) activity or by the induction of CDKN1A/p21 (cyclin dependent kinase inhibitor 1 A) expression. Here, we review recent discoveries and emerging trends in the study of the ferroptosis network and highlight the context‐dependent impact of p53 on ferroptosis and oxidative stress.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
