Meningioma model mice were constructed as follows: after abdominal skin disinfection, 1% pentobarbital sodium (135 pL) was intraperitoneally injected into the nude mice. The head of the nude mice was fixed with a stereotaxometer, and two ear needles were symmetrically fixed in the bony parts slightly in front of each ear of the nude mice. The skin of the head of nude mice was cut approximately 0.6 cm lengthwise at 5 mm after the intersection of the inner canthal line and sagittal midline. The skin and fascia on both sides of the incision were bluntly separated with forceps to fully expose the skull. The location of the drill hole was determined according to the stereotactic anatomical map of the head: 0.5 mm behind the intersection of the coronal and sagittal suture and 2.5 mm to the right of the midline. The electric drill drilled a hole of approximately 1 mm at this position. The cells of the third generation of the logarithmic growth stage were taken. The cell suspension was absorbed with a 10 uL microsyringe, and the needle was slowly injected vertically to a depth of approximately 1.5 mm. The cell suspension (5 x 10⁵ cells/100 uL) was slowly injected, and the needle remained for 2 min after injection before being slowly withdrawn.

6-week-old male nude mice (Nanjing Medical University Animal Center) were used in this study. There were 6-8 mice/group for survival and tumor growth analysis experiments. For tumor growth analysis, (2 x 10⁶) IOMM-Lee-shMEF2C, IOMM-Lee-shMEF2C-Lv-NF2 or IOMM-Lee-shMEF2C-Lv-Ecad cells were subcutaneously injected to the right flank of the mice to examine the effect of MEF2C, NF2 and E-cadherin status on ferropotosis inducing response in vivo. Erastin, 15 mg/kg in 10% DMSO, or vehicle was administrated intraperitoneally (i.p.) every other day starting at Day 5 after implantation. Tumor diameter was recorded every 5 days starting at Day 10 when the tumors were visible and detectable.
