Pioneering the future of cancer therapy : Deciphering the p53-ferroptosis nexus for precision medicine

The TP53 gene, encoding the p53 protein, has been a focal point of research since its 1979 discovery, playing a crucial role in tumor suppression. Ferroptosis, a distinct form of cell death characterized by lipid peroxide accumulation, has gained prominence since its recognition in 2012. Recent studies have unveiled an intriguing connection between p53 and ferroptosis, with implications for cancer therapy. Recent research underscores p53 as a novel target for cancer therapy, influencing key metabolic processes in ferroptosis. Notably, p53 represses the expression of the cystine-glutamate antiporter SLC7A11, supporting p53-mediated tumor growth suppression. Furthermore, under metabolic stress, p53 mitigates ferroptosis sensitivity, aiding cancer cells in coping and delaying cell death. This dynamic interplay between p53 and ferroptosis has far-reaching implications for various diseases, particularly cancer. This review provides a comprehensive overview of ferroptosis in cancer cells, elucidating p53's role in regulating ferroptosis, and explores the potential of targeting p53 to induce ferroptosis for cancer therapy. Understanding this complex relationship between p53 and ferroptosis offers a promising avenue for developing innovative cancer treatments.
