In Vivo Model
To generate murine subcutaneous tumors, melanoma cells (5 x 106 cells per mouse) were injected subcutaneously into the right posterior flanks of 7-week-old immunodeficient nude mice. When tumors reached a volume of approximately 50 mm3, mice were randomly allocated into groups and treated with erastin for 20 days. The erastin was dissolved in 5% dimethylsulfoxide (DMSO) + corn oil (C8267, Sigma).

Response regulation MiR-137 negatively regulates ferroptosis by directly targeting glutamine transporter SLC1A5 in melanoma cells. Ectopic expression of miR-137 suppressed SLC1A5, resulting in decreased glutamine uptake and malondialdehyde (MDA) accumulation. Meanwhile, antagomir-mediated inactivation of endogenous miR-137 increased the sensitivity of melanoma cells to erastin- and RSL3-induced ferroptosis.
