Multienzyme-like Reactivity Cooperatively Impairs Glutathione Peroxidase 4 and Ferroptosis Suppressor Protein 1 Pathways in Triple-Negative Breast Cancer for Sensitized Ferroptosis Therapy

Ferroptosis is a recently discovered route of regulated cell death that offers the opportunities for the treatment of chemotherapy-resistant tumor indications, but its efficacy can be affected by the glutathione peroxidase 4 (GPX4) and ferroptosis suppressor protein 1 (FSP1) antioxidant mechanisms, posing significant challenges for its clinical translation. In this study, we report a Cu-tetra(4-carboxyphenyl)porphyrin chloride(Fe(III)) (Cu-TCPP(Fe)) metal organic framework (MOF)-based nanosystem for the efficient incorporation of Au nanoparticles (NPs) and RSL3, which can demonstrate enzyme-like activities to universally suppress the antiferroptotic pathways in tumor cells for amplifying ferroptotic damage.…
