Inhibition of GPR68 induces ferroptosis and radiosensitivity in diverse cancer cell types by Leif R. Neitzel, Daniela T. Fuller, Jessica Cornell, Samantha Rea, Carolina de Aguiar Ferreira, Charles H. Williams, Charles C. Hong

“…Moreover, OGM synergized with ionizing radiation to induce lipid peroxidation, a hallmark of ferroptosis, as well as reduce colony size in 2D and 3D cell culture. GPR68 inhibition is not acutely detrimental but increases intracellular free ferrous iron, which is known to trigger reactive oxygen species (ROS) generation. …”
