In Vivo Model
Female BALB/c nude mice (6-7 weeks, 17-18 g) were purchased from Hunan Slack Scene of Laboratory Animal Co., Ltd. and used to establish the xenograft mouse model with 5 x 106 exponentially growing MGC-803 cells inoculated subcutaneously into the right forelimb for each mouse. Once the volume of tumors reached 100 mm3, the mice were divided into 3 groups: solvent control; 6-TG (10 mg/kg/day); 6-TG (10 mg/kg/day) + Fer-1(50 mg/kg/day).

Response regulation 6-Thioguanine was identified as a potential ferroptosis inducer in gastric cancer cells for the first time. It could inactivate system xc, block the generation of GSH, down-regulate the expression of GPX4, increase the level of Lipid ROS, and finally trigger the Fe-2+-mediated ferroptosis in MGC-803 and AGS cell lines.
