The SCD1 inhibitor aramchol interacts with regorafenib and metformin to kill tumor cells. (PubMed, Oncotarget)
Knock down of SCD1 enhanced the percentage of dead cells in vehicle control treated cells but did not alter the abilities of drugs to kill tumor cells. Our data demonstrates that UM cells are killed by treatment with aramchol plus regorafenib plus metformin via enhanced autophagic flux and that this combination may have the potential to control UM tumors that have metastasized to the liver.

Ezetimibe counteracts lipopolysaccharide-induced liver injury in mice via modulating TLR4-mediated MYD88/TRAF-6/NF-kB signaling pathway. (PubMed, Toxicol Appl Pharmacol)
Additionally, myeloid differentiation primary-response protein 88 (MYD88), TNF Receptor Associated Factor 6 (TRAF-6) and IL-6 were markedly reduced in the liver by EZE. Collectively, EZE may be a promising candidate in sepsis-related liver injury following further clinical studies.

Integrated regulation of ferroptosis in prostate cancer covering mechanisms, resistance, and translational opportunities. (PubMed, J Mol Med (Berl))
Repurposed drugs such as flubendazole and the ezetimibe derivative L14-8, along with natural compounds including evodiamine and luteolin, demonstrate translational potential for ferroptosis induction. Collectively, ferroptosis represents a promising therapeutic vulnerability for precision treatment of advanced prostate cancer.
