Abstract Copper (Cu) is an essential trace element in the human body that involved formation of several natural enzymes, such as superoxide dismutase and cyclooxygenase. Due to high density outer electron cloud Cu, which allows transfer multiple electrons, Cu often used catalytic center various metabolic enzymes. However, both deficiency excessive accumulation can result irreversible damage cells. Therefore, strategies regulate metabolism, exhaustion supplementation, have emerged attractive approaches anticancer therapy, due potential damages caused by metabolism disorders. Notably, recent advancements nanotechnology enabled development nanomaterials making this therapy applicable vivo. In review, we provide a systematic discussion physical chemical properties summarize applications metabolism‐based antitumor therapy. Finally, outline future directions challenges nano‐Cu emphasizing scientific problems technical bottlenecks need be addressed for successful clinical translation.

Significance: Autophagy is a self-degrading process that determines cell fate in response to various environmental stresses. In contrast autophagy-mediated survival, the signals, mechanisms, and effects of autophagy-dependent death remain obscure. The discovery ferroptosis provides paradigm for understanding relationship between aberrant degradation pathways excessive lipid peroxidation driving regulated death. Recent Advances: Ferroptosis was originally described as an autophagy-independent iron-mediated nonapoptotic Current studies reveal level intracellular autophagy positively correlated with sensitivity. Selective autophagic proteins (e.g., ferritin, SLC40A1, ARNTL, GPX4, CDH2) or organelles droplets mitochondria) promotes by inducing iron overload and/or peroxidation. Several upstream autophagosome regulators TMEM164), downstream receptors HPCAL1), danger signals DCN) are selectively required ferroptosis-related autophagy, but not starvation-induced autophagy. induction effective approach eliminate drug-resistant cancer cells. Critical Issues: How different activate modulate sensitivity fully understood. Identifying direct protein effectors ferroptotic remains challenge. Future Directions: Further molecular mechanics immune consequences critical development precision antitumor therapies. Antioxid. Redox Signal. 39, 79-101.
