Hamed Alborzinia et al. show that Golgi-dispersing compounds trigger iron-dependent oxidative degradation of lipids, inducing a non-apoptotic cell death called ferroptosis. This study provides insight into the role of Golgi apparatus for preventing ferroptotic cell death through its cellular redox control.
