GPX2 inhibition enhances antitumor efficacy of lenvatinib via promoting immunogenic cell death in hepatocellular carcinoma

Abstract

This study uncovered that lenvatinib could be a potent ICD inducer, which could trigger ERS via increasing ROS levels in HCC cells, which present valuable insights into the mechanism of lenvatinib-induced ICD in HCC cells. Collectively, our findings highlight the significant therapeutic potential of the combination of targeting GPX2 and treatment with lenvatinib for HCC.
