Metabolomic Analysis Identifies Betaine as a Key Mediator of TAp73α-Induced Ferroptosis in Ovarian Granulosa Cells. (PubMed, Int J Mol Sci) - Jul 13, 2025 - "In this study, we demonstrate that TAp73α overexpression promotes ferroptosis in bovine GCs by downregulating SLC7A11, depleting intracellular glutathione (GSH), and enhancing lipid peroxidation, particularly under Erastin treatment...Moreover, betaine co-treatment effectively reversed lipid peroxide accumulation and mitigated TAp73α-induced ferroptosis. Collectively, our findings identify a novel mechanism by which TAp73α promotes ferroptosis in granulosa cells through the suppression of betaine and glutathione metabolism, highlighting betaine as a key metabolic modulator with promising protective potential."
