Sixty-four male Sprague-Dawley (SD) rats (5-6 weeks old) were provided by Shandong Jinan Pengyue Experimental Animal Breeding Co. Ltd. Rats were randomly divided into four groups (n = 16/group): (i) Control group rats received normal saline (NS) administered intraperitoneally (i.p.); (ii) PTZ group rats received PTZ (35 mg/kg, i.p.; Sigma-Aldrich, USA) [7]; (iii) Vitamin E+PTZ group rats received vitamin E (200 mg/kg, i.p.; Sigma-Aldrich, St. Louis, MO, USA) 30 min before PTZ injection; (iv) Fer-1+PTZ group rats received Fer-1 (2.5 umol/g, i.p.; Selleck, Houston, TX, USA) 30 min before PTZ injection. All drugs were administered every other day for a total of 15 injections.

Response regulation Vitamin E treatment was associated with decreased epileptic grade, seizure latency, and number of seizures in the PTZ-kindled epileptic model. Vitamin E treatment also decreased 15-LOX expression, inhibited MDA and iron accumulation, and increased GPX4 and GSH expression. In conclusion, vitamin E can reduce neuronal ferroptosis and seizures by inhibiting 15-LOX expression.

In Vitro Model mHSPCs (Mouse hematopoietic stem and progenitor cells)
In Vivo Model
C57BL/6 WT mice were purchased from Beijing HFK BioScience Company (Beijing, China). Gpx4flox/flox mice were crossed with Vav-Cre mice and Mx-Cre mice to generate the Gpx4flox/flox Vav-Cre mice and Gpx4flox/flox Mx-Cre mice, respectively. For Gpx4 deletion, Gpx4flox/flox Mx-Cre mice were intraperitoneally injected with 20 mg/kg pIpC (Sigma) every other day for two weeks. CD45.1/45.2 mice and CD45.1 mice on a C57BL/6 background were used as competitor and recipient mice, respectively, in the competitive transplantation assay. Mice were fed natural ingredient diets containing >= 120 IU/kg vitamin E. A fixed formulation diet with or without 75 IU/kg vitamin E (Beijing HFK BioScience Company, Beijing, China) was fed to the mice involved in the vitamin E depletion experiments. For 5-FU treatment, mice were intraperitoneally injected with 150 mg/kg 5-FU (Sigma).

Response regulation a-Tocopherol, the main component of vitamin E, was shown to rescue the Gpx4-deficient hematopoietic stem and progenitor cells (HSPCs) from ferroptosis in vitro. When Gpx4 knockout mice were fed a vitamin E-depleted diet, a reduced number of HSPCs and impaired function of HSCs were found.
