USP8 activates GPX4. 4 / 4
| 4

reach
"As expected, ectopic expression of USP8 increased the protein abundance of GPX4 (SI Appendix, Fig. S4I)."

reach
"Since there are two major systems to govern protein homeostasis in cells, namely the proteasome-mediated degradation system and the autophagy-lysosome system (39), we aimed to determine the major system in regulating USP8-mediated GPX4 protein stability."

reach
"Conversely, inhibition of USP8 by genetic ablation or its pharmacological inhibitor (DUB-IN-2) down-regulates GPX4, sensitizing tumor cells to ferroptosis, retarding tumor growth, and increasing tumor-infiltrating CD8 T cells that potentiates the PD-1/PD-L1 blockade therapy (SI Appendix, Fig. S6 E, Right)."

reach
"Intriguingly, among the ferroptosis-related proteins we examined, USP8 knockdown dramatically decreased the protein abundance of GPX4 in multiple cancer cell lines (Fig. 4 A and B and SI Appendix, Fig. S4 A and B)."
