abstract = {Investigating the effect of ferroptosis in the tumour
microenvironment to identify combinatory therapy for liver
cancer treatment.Glutathione peroxidase 4 (GPx4), which is
considered the master regulator of ferroptosis, was
genetically altered in murine models for hepatocellular
carcinoma (HCC) and colorectal cancer (CRC) to analyse the
effect of ferroptosis on tumour cells and the immune tumour
microenvironment. The findings served as foundation for the
identification of additional targets for combine therapy
with ferroptotic inducer in the treatment of HCC and liver
metastasis.Surprisingly, hepatocyte-restricted GPx4 loss
does not suppress hepatocellular tumourigenesis. Instead,
GPx4-associated ferroptotic hepatocyte death causes a tumour
suppressive immune response characterised by a
CXCL10-dependent infiltration of cytotoxic CD8+ T cells that
is counterbalanced by PD-L1 upregulation on tumour cells as
well as by a marked HMGB1-mediated myeloid derived
suppressor cell (MDSC) infiltration. Blocking PD-1 or HMGB1
unleashes T cell activation and prolongs survival of mice
with Gpx4-deficient liver tumours. A triple combination of
the ferroptosis inducing natural compound withaferin A, the
CXCR2 inhibitor SB225002 and α-PD-1 greatly improves
survival of wild-type mice with liver tumours. In contrast,
the same combination does not affect tumour growth of
subcutaneously grown CRC organoids, while it decreases their
metastatic growth in liver.Our data highlight a
context-specific ferroptosis-induced immune response that
could be therapeutically exploited for the treatment of
primary liver tumours and liver metastases.},
