| contents | The GPX1-OSBPL8 axis: integrating ER ferroptosis and apoptotic signaling. Chang, Renin Wen, Chen-Yueh Yong, Su-Boon Li, Chia-Jung Ferroptosis Humans Apoptosis Endoplasmic Reticulum Signal Transduction Endoplasmic Reticulum Stress Animals Glutathione Peroxidase Phospholipid Hydroperoxide Glutathione Peroxidase Unfolded Protein Response The classification of regulated cell death (RCD) has evolved from discrete, siloed pathways into an integrated network of metabolic and proteostatic checkpoints. For over a decade, the glutathione peroxidase 4 (GPX4)-dependent neutralization of lipid hydroperoxides on the plasma membrane was considered the primary defense against ferroptosis. However, the landmark discovery by Xia et al. [1] in Cell has identified a "non-canonical" ferroptosis pathway governed by the GPX1-OSBPL8 axis, which operates specifically at the endoplasmic reticulum (ER). By elucidating how the lipid transfer protein OSBPL8 recruits GPX1 to reduce peroxidized phosphatidic acid (PA-OOH), this research provides a definitive organelle-specific mechanism for lipid-driven cell death. For the field of apoptosis, this discovery is pivotal: it positions the ER as a central decision-making hub where ferroptotic lipid damage converges with intrinsic apoptotic signals via ER stress, the Unfolded Protein Response (UPR), and unregulated calcium dynamics. This commentary evaluates the mechanistic underpinnings of this non-canonical axis and explores the synergistic potential of targeting ER-localized death programs in oncology. |
