In Vivo Model
Nude mice (5 weeks) were purchased from SLAC Int. (Shanghai, China). A549 cells (6 x 107 /ml) were collected and mixed with Matrigel (Corning, USA) at a 1:1 ratio by volume. Then, 100 ul cells were injected subcutaneously into the back region of nude mice to generate tumors with a size of 100 mm3 . Mice were randomly divided into four groups (n = 5/group): the control group, betulin group (10 mg/kg), gefitinib group (30 mg/kg), and the combined group. The control group was orally administered vehicle, while the betulin group, gefitinib group, and the combined group were orally administered betulin, gefitinib, and betulin plus gefitinib every other day. The tumor size and mice body weight were measured every other day too, and the volume was calculated according to the formula: tumor size (mm3 ) = (length x width2 ) x 0.5.

Response regulation The expression of SCL7A11, GPX4, and FTH1, which are negative regulators of ferroptosis, was significantly decreased under the combinative treatment of betulin and gefitinib. Moreover, the positive regulatory protein HO-1 was increased. These findings reiterated that the combination of betulin with gefitinib could trigger ferroptosis in KRASmutant non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC) cells.
