Family ATP-dependent AMP-binding enzyme family
Function
May mediate the import of long-chain fatty acids (LCFA) by facilitating their transport across cell membranes. Also catalyzes the ATP-dependent formation of fatty acyl-CoA using LCFA and very-long-chain fatty acids (VLCFA) as substrates. Mainly functions as a bile acyl-CoA synthetase catalyzing the activation of bile acids via ATP-dependent formation of bile acid CoA thioesters which is necessary for their subsequent conjugation with glycine or taurine. Both primary bile acids (cholic acid and chenodeoxycholic acid) and secondary bile acids (deoxycholic acid and lithocholic acid) are the principal substrates. In vitro, activates 3-alpha,7-alpha,12-alpha- trihydroxy-5-beta-cholestanate ((25R)-3alpha,7alpha,12alpha-trihydroxy- 5beta-cholestan-26-oate or THCA), the C27 precursor of cholic acid deriving from the de novo synthesis from cholesterol. Plays an important role in hepatic fatty acid uptake and bile acid reconjugation and recycling but not in de novo synthesis of bile acids (By similarity).

Cell Process Cell ferroptosis

SK-HEP-1 cells Liver and intrahepatic bile duct epithelial neoplasm Homo sapiens CVCL_0525
In Vivo Model
Age-matched male BALB/c nude mice (4-6 weeks old) were used for the orthotopic mouse model. Cohorts of mice were randomized into different treatment groups. 4 x 106 tumor cells were suspended in a 50 ul PBS/Matrigel (356234, BD Biosciences) mixture (1:1 (v/v) ratio) for each group of mice and injected into the left liver lobes by surgical implantation.

Response regulation The combination of sorafenib and carmustine (BCNU), a selective inhibitor of GSR, remarkably hamper tumor growth by enhancing ferroptotic cell death in vivo. SLC27A5 serves as a suppressor in sorafenib resistance and promotes sorafenib-triggered ferroptosis via restraining the NRF2/GSR pathway in hepatocellular carcinoma, providing a potential therapeutic strategy for overcoming sorafenib resistance.
