Abstract
Cancer cells exhibit a metabolic phenotype termed “porphyrin overdrive,” characterized by dysregulated heme metabolic pathways for intermediate accumulation. This rewiring is cancer-essential and cancer-specific. Targeting this vulnerability with a “bait-and-kill” strategy shows promise in eradicating malignant cells.
