"Cholesterol Precursor 7-Dehydrocholesterol Suppresses Ferroptosis in Cells"
A study has identified 7-dehydrocholesterol as a natural inhibitor of ferroptosis, a form of cell death driven by lipid peroxidation. The research sheds light on the role of 7-dehydrocholesterol-derived oxysterols in regulating ferroptosis sensitivity and provides insights into the mechanisms of this type of cell death. The data and materials supporting the findings are available in the main text, figures, and extended data figures, as well as in a repository for (epi)lipidomics experiments.
