Full List of Ferroptosis Target Related to This Drug
Unspecific Target
In total 4 item(s) under this Target
Experiment 1 Reporting the Ferroptosis-centered Drug Act on This Target [1]
Responsed Disease Pancreatic cancer ICD-11: 2C10
Responsed Regulator Transcription factor A, mitochondrial (TFAM) Suppressor
Pathway Response Ferroptosis hsa04216
Cell Process Cell ferroptosis
In Vitro Model MIA PaCa-2 cells Pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma Homo sapiens CVCL_0428
Hep-G2 cells Hepatoblastoma Homo sapiens CVCL_0027
In Vivo Model
Xenografts with MiaPaCa-2 and HepG2 cells in nude mice and treated them for 4 or 3 weeks, respectively, with vehicle alone and 2.5 or 5.0 mg/kg/day of ZZW-115. Then, we measured the GPX4 activity and analyzed the mRNA levels of the key genes involved in ferroptosis by qRT-PCR analysis.

Response regulation The expression of TFAM, a key regulator of mitochondrial biogenesis, is downregulated by ZZW-115. Forced expression of TFAM is able to rescue morphological and functional mitochondrial alterations, ROS production, and cell death induced by ZZW-115 or genetic inhibition of NUPR1. These results have been validated in xenografts induced with pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC)- and hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC)-derived cells in nude mice during the treatment with ZZW-115.
Experiment 2 Reporting the Ferroptosis-centered Drug Act on This Target [1]
Responsed Disease Pancreatic cancer ICD-11: 2C10
Responsed Regulator Nuclear protein 1 (NUPR1) Suppressor
Pathway Response Ferroptosis hsa04216
