In Vivo Model
C57BL/6 male mice, 6 to 8 weeks old, were purchased from Liaoning Changsheng Biotechnology Co. (Liaoning, China). The animal experiment was conducted in three parts. In the first part, mice were randomly divided into 4 groups (n = 12/group): (1) control group that received an intraperitoneal injection of saline, (2) FG-4592 group that received intraperitoneal injection of FG-4592 once (10 mg/kg, dissolved in DMSO at 50 mg/ml and then further diluted in sterile phosphate-buffered saline to 1 mg/ml), (3) FA group that received intraperitoneal injection of a single dose of FA (250 mg/kg, dissolved in 0.3 M sodium bicarbonate), and (4) FA + FG-4592 group that received FG-4592 two days prior to FA single-dose injection. Kidney specimens and blood samples were collected on the second day (n = 6/group) and the fourteenth day (n = 6/group) after FA injection for further examination. In the second part, mice were treated with a ferroptosis inhibitor (Fer-1). In the third part, mice were treated with a PI3K inhibitor (wortmannin).

Response regulation Roxadustat (FG-4592) pretreatment is achieved mainly by decreasing ferroptosis at the early stage of FA-induced kidney injury via Akt/GSK-3-mediated Nrf2 activation, which retards the fibrosis progression.
