Ferroptosis enhances the therapeutic potential of oncolytic adenoviruses KD01 against cancer. (PubMed, Cancer Gene Ther)
This study explores the combination of oncolytic adenoviruses with Erastin, a potent ferroptosis inducer, to enhance antitumor efficacy in oncolytic virus-insensitive cancer cell lines...This novel therapeutic approach has great potential to enhance the efficacy of oncolytic virotherapy in cancers resistant to oncolytic viruses by inducing ferroptosis. Further investigation in clinically relevant models is warranted to fully elucidate the underlying mechanisms and to optimize this combination strategy for potential clinical applications.

Helium cold atmospheric pressure plasma reduces erastin induced inflammation and ferroptosis in human gingival fibroblasts. (PubMed, Sci Rep)
Furthermore, mitochondrial membrane potential was restored by increased voltage-dependent anion channel 1 (VDAC1) expression, and reactive oxygen species (ROS) levels in mitochondria and cytoplasm were reduced. These results suggest that He CAP exposure may be associated with modulation of mitochondrial ROS production and reduction of inflammation and ferroptosis, but whether mitochondrial repair contributes to these effects requires further investigation.

Protective effect of 2-hydroxyestrone and 2-hydroxyestradiol against chemically induced hepatotoxicity in vitro and in vivo. (PubMed, J Pharmacol Exp Ther)
In this study, we seek to determine whether 2-hydroxyestrone (2-OH-E1) and 2-hydroxyestradiol (2-OH-E2), 2 major metabolites of endogenous estrone (E1) and 17β-estradiol (E2) formed by cytochrome P450 in the liver, can protect against erastin- and RSL3-induced ferroptosis in hepatoma cells (H-4-II-E and HuH-7) in vitro and acetaminophen-induced mouse liver injury in vivo. This study shows that 2-hydroxyestrone and 2-hydroxyestradiol are 2 inhibitors of PDI that can strongly protect against chemically induced ferroptotic hepatocyte death in vitro and in vivo. This work supports a PDI-mediated, estrogen receptor-independent mechanism of hepatocyte protection by 2-hydroxyestrone and 2-hydroxyestradiol.

Osteosarcoma Cells and Undifferentiated Human Mesenchymal Stromal Cells Are More Susceptible to Ferroptosis than Differentiated Human Mesenchymal Stromal Cells. (PubMed, Antioxidants (Basel))
Ferroptosis was induced by either inhibiting glutathione peroxidase 4 (GPX4) using RSL3 or blocking all glutathione-dependent enzymes through inhibition of the glutamate/cysteine antiporter with Erastin. Our data suggest that ferroptosis induction in undifferentiated hBMSCs is primarily regulated by GPX4, whereas glutathione S-Transferase P1 (GSTP1) plays a key role in controlling ferroptosis in osteosarcoma cells. In conclusion, targeting the key pathways involved in ferroptosis across different bone cell types may improve the efficacy of cancer treatments while minimizing collateral damage and supporting regenerative processes, with minimal impact on cancer therapy.

NF-κB-mediated EAAT3 upregulation in antioxidant defense and ferroptosis sensitivity in lung cancer. (PubMed, Cell Death Dis)

Moreover, this research offers insights into the potential for a combined ferroptosis therapy strategy in lung cancer treatment.

Increased DUSP1 expression, correlated with higher Fe2+ and lipid ROS levels, was observed in gastric cancer cells with increasing Erastin concentration. The prognostic model effectively predicts gastric cancer patient outcomes. DUSP1 is lowly expressed in gastric cancer tissues and is associated with malignancy and metastasis, playing a role in ferroptosis in gastric cancer cells.

Long non-coding RNA ZFAS1 promotes ferroptosis by regulating the miR-185-5p/SLC25A28 axis in clear cell renal cell carcinoma. (PubMed, Int J Biol Macromol)
In this study, the ferroptosis inducers (FINS) (erastin and RSL3) were found to increase ZFAS1 expression through the facilitation of SP1 binding to the ZFAS1 promoter. Altogether, this study demonstrates that ZFAS1 is a crucial element of ferroptosis in ccRCC, as it is responsible for the regulation of miR-185-5p and SLC25A28. Introducing ferroptosis could be a beneficial approach to treat ccRCC patients with high ZFAS1 levels.

Metabolic consequences of erastin-induced ferroptosis in human ovarian cancer cells: an untargeted metabolomics study. (PubMed, Front Mol Biosci)
We have utilized human ovarian cancer cell lines, OVCAR-8 and its adriamycin-selected, multi-drug resistance protein (MDR1)-expressing NCI/ADR-RES, both equally sensitive to ER, to identify metabolic biomarkers of ferroptosis. Our studies identified several potential biomarkers of ER-induced ferroptosis including OPH, taurine, NAD+, NADP+ and glutamate in ovarian cancer cells. Identifying specific metabolic biomarkers that are predictive of whether a cancer is susceptible to ferroptosis will help us devise more successful treatment modalities.

VSTM2L protects prostate cancer cells against ferroptosis via inhibiting VDAC1 oligomerization and maintaining mitochondria homeostasis. (PubMed, Nat Commun)
Moreover, VSTM2L knockdown in PCa cells enhances the sensitivity of RSL3-induced ferroptosis. Mechanistically, VSTM2L forms complex with VDAC1 and hexokinase 2 (HK2), enhancing their binding affinity and preventing VDAC1 oligomerization, thereby inhibiting ferroptosis and maintaining mitochondria homeostasis in vitro and in vivo. Collectively, our findings reveal a pivotal role for mitochondria-localized VSTM2L in driving ferroptosis resistance and highlight its potential as a ferroptosis-inducing therapeutic target for the treatment of PCa.

Blockade of TIPE2-Mediated Ferroptosis of Myeloid-Derived Suppressor Cells Achieves the Full Potential of Combinatory Ferroptosis and Anti-PD-L1 Cancer Immunotherapy. (PubMed, Cells)
However, whether blocking the intrinsic ferroptosis pathways of MDSCs can relieve imidazole ketone erastin (IKE)-initiated ferroptosis-induced immune suppression and ultimately trigger the optimal therapeutic effect of the combined ferroptosis and ICB therapy is still unknown...More importantly, TIPE2-deficient MDSCs achieved the full anti-tumor therapeutic potential of IKE-induced ferroptosis therapy and a PD-L1 blockade. These findings indicate that TIPE2 confers the ferroptosis sensitivity of MDSCs, and combining the targeting of the TIPE2 of MDSCs, ferroptosis therapy, and ICB is a novel therapeutic option for cancer treatment.
