Brain-Targeted HFn-Cu-REGO Nanoplatform for Site-Specific Delivery and Manipulation of Autophagy and Cuproptosis in Glioblastoma

Wenhui Jia et al.

Summary: This study presents a brain-targeted nanoplatform for glioblastoma multiforme (GBM) treatment, which manipulates autophagy and cuproptosis. The nanoplatform utilizes transferrin receptor-mediated active targeting and pH-responsive delivery to achieve site-specific delivery of regorafenib. By inhibiting autophagosome-lysosome fusion, regorafenib induces lethal autophagy arrest in GBM cells. Additionally, Cu2+ is utilized to facilitate the encapsulation of regorafenib and trigger cuproptosis, resulting in a synergistic effect with regorafenib against GBM.

Photothermally Triggered Copper Payload Release for Cuproptosis-Promoted Cancer Synergistic Therapy

Jie Zhou et al.

Summary: In this study, a photothermally triggered nanoplatform (Au@MSN-Cu/PEG/DSF) was constructed to achieve synergistic therapy and overcome the challenges in cancer treatment. The platform released DSF to chelate with Cu2+ and generate highly cytotoxic CuET, inducing cell apoptosis. The Cu+ species formed further promoted toxic mitochondrial protein aggregation, leading to cell cuproptosis. With the combination of photothermal therapy, Au@MSN-Cu/PEG/DSF effectively killed tumor cells and inhibited tumor growth.

Copper induces cell death by targeting lipoylated TCA cycle proteins

Peter Tsvetkov et al.

Summary: Copper is an essential cofactor for all organisms, but excessive copper can lead to cell death. We found that copper-dependent cell death mechanism is different from known mechanisms, and it is related to mitochondrial respiration. Copper directly binds to lipoylated components of the tricarboxylic acid cycle, causing protein aggregation and loss of iron-sulfur cluster proteins, ultimately leading to cell death.

Copper homeostasis and cuproptosis in health and disease

Liyun Chen et al.

Summary: Copper is an essential micronutrient that is required for various physiological processes in almost all cell types, and its homeostasis is tightly regulated to avoid oxidative stress and cellular dysfunction. Recent studies have identified a novel form of cell death called cuproptosis, which is induced by copper binding to lipoylated enzymes in the tricarboxylic acid cycle and ultimately leads to protein aggregation, proteotoxic stress, and cell death. This article summarizes current knowledge on copper metabolism, copper-related diseases, the characteristics of cuproptosis, and the regulatory mechanisms involved. The implications of cuproptosis in the pathogenesis of diseases such as Wilson's disease, neurodegenerative diseases, and cancer are also discussed, along with the therapeutic potential of targeting cuproptosis.
