RNA binding protein ILF3 increases CEP55 mRNA stability to enhance malignant potential of breast cancer cells and suppress ferroptosis by Sheng Chen, Yangyong Luo, Simin Ruan, Guosen Su, Guoxing Huang

“…Moreover, ILF3 depletion enhanced the anti-tumor growth activity of the ferroptosis inducer erastin in MDA-MB-231 subcutaneous xenograft tumors. Conclusion Our observations indicate that the depletion of ILF3 impairs the malignant potential of BC cells and promotes their ferroptosis by downregulating CEP55 expression. …”
