Experiment 1 Reporting the Ferroptosis Target of This Regulator [1]
Responsed Disease Pancreatic cancer ICD-11: 2C10
Pathway Response Ferroptosis hsa04216
PI3K-Akt signaling pathway hsa04151
Fatty acid metabolism hsa01212
Cell Process Cell ferroptosis
Cell proliferation
Cell migration
Cell invasion
In Vitro Model
PANC-1 cells Pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma Homo sapiens CVCL_0480
AsPC-1 cells Pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma Homo sapiens CVCL_0152
HPDE cells Normal Homo sapiens CVCL_4376
In Vivo Model
Male BALB/c nude mice (5 weeks old; 16-18 g) were obtained from the Animal Center of Guangxi Medical University and grown under specific pathogen-free conditions. The mice (n = 20) were randomly divided into four groups; Vector group, A2M-AS1 group, Vector + Erastin group, and A2M-AS1 + Erastin group. The Vector and Vector + Erastin groups were injected with 106 cells that stably expressing the lentiviral vector, whereas the other two groups were injected with 106 cells that stably overexpressing A2M-AS1. On the 7th day after inoculation, the Vector + Erastin and A2M-AS1 + Erastin groups were intraperitoneally injected with a 100-uL Erastin solution (40 mg/kg) once every 2 days.

Response regulation A2M-AS1 could directly interact with the poly (rC) binding protein 3 (PCBP3), which plays an important role in the process of iron metabolism, thereby promoting the ferroptosis in pancreatic cancer.
