Sulfasalazine (SAS) also acts on System X C - to inhibit the uptake of cystine [149], causing chronic depletion of glutathione in cells, thereby destroying the redox defense of cells, hindering tumor growth, and inducing tumors ferroptosis [149,150,151,152,153]
Melanoma with NMSC comorbidity affects not only individuals at general population-level risk, but also those with the highest risk of developing multiple skin neoplasms caused by germline mutations [such as cyclin-dependent kinase inhibitor 2A, melanocyte inducing transcription factor (MITF-E318K variant), BRAC1-associated protein, p53], red hair colour phenotype (melanocortin-1 receptor polymorphism), chronic immunosuppression, chronic lymphocytic leucaemia, allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplant proceeded by total-body irradiation or solid organ transplantation (524)
