NCF-1 plays a pivotal role in the survival of adenocarcinoma cells of pancreatic and gastric origins. (PubMed, In Vitro Cell Dev Biol Anim)
Consequently, the tumor cells highly expressing NCF-1 obtained coincident accumulation of ROS and reduced glutathione (GSH) with expression of glutathione peroxidase 4 (GPX4), a quencher involved in ferroptosis. Unlike the conventional role of ROS as a representative cytotoxic factor, these findings suggest that NCF-1-mediated ROS generation may be required for expansive growth of PDAC and gastric cancers.
