To confirm that the biological process by which PEDS1 inhibits lipid peroxidation-induced cell death is also present in UTUC, we selected the urothelial carcinoma cell lines EJ and T24 for further investigation due to their high PEDS1 expression levels (Fig. 3F–H) [18]. The gene discussed is PEDS1; the disease is renal pelvis/ureter urothelial carcinoma.
