Abstract: In this study, we tested the anticancer activity of orlistat, an FDA-approved anti-obesity drug, in humanand mouse cancer cells in vitro and in vivo, and we found that orlistat, as a single agentMechanistically, we found that orlistat reduced the expression of GPX4, a central ferroptosis regulatorMoreover, in a mouse xenograft model, orlistat significantly inhibited tumor growth and reduced the tumorOur study showed a novel mechanism of the anticancer activity of orlistat and provided the rationale
