Mitochondrial Iron Accumulation Drives Perforin Mediated Cancer Cell Death

For decades, scientists have known that a protein made by T cells and natural killer (NK) cells in the immune system, called perforin, can kill tumor cells by punching a hole in the cell wall and injecting proteases called granzymes, which kill the cell.
