Response regulation ITC-ARi 13 and buthionine sulfoximine (BSO) cooperatively downregulate AR and induce ferroptosis likely through increasing the accessibility of 13/12b to cellular targets, escalating free intracellular ferrous iron and attenuating GSH-centered cellular defense and adaptation. Further studies on the combination of ITC-ARi and GSH synthesis inhibitor could result in a new modality against castration-resistant prostate cancer (CRPC). Collectively, the combination of ITC-ARi 13 and BSO reveals a pro-ferroptotic role of Nrf2 through upregulating HO-1 under GSH-deficient conditions.
