Auranofin inhibition of thioredoxin reductase sensitizes lung neuroendocrine tumor cells (NETs) and small cell lung cancer (SCLC) cells to sorafenib as well as inhibiting SCLC xenograft growth

Thioredoxin Reductase (TrxR) functions to recycle thioredoxin (Trx) during hydroperoxide metabolism mediated by peroxiredoxins and is currently being targeted using the FDA-approved anti-rheumatic drug, auranofin (AF), to selectively sensitize cancer cells to therapy. AF treatment decreased TrxR act...
