🧬 New study: LIMD1 loss in lung cancer makes cells GPX4-dependent — a new Achilles' heel we can target! Our CRISPR screens + validation show that ferroptosis inducers selectively kill LIMD1-deficient cells. 🧪 Read it on bioRxiv: doi.org/10.1101/2025... #Ferroptosis #LungCancer

LIMD1 Loss Confers a GPX4-Dependent Cell State in Lung Cancer
LIMD1 (LIM domains containing 1) is a bona-fide tumour suppressor gene frequently lost during the early stages of non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) development, resulting in a worse outcome for LIMD1...
