In total 1 item(s) under this target
Experiment 1 Reporting the Ferroptosis Target of This Regulator [1]
Responsed Disease Hepatocellular carcinoma ICD-11: 2C12
Responsed Drug Carmustine Investigative
Pathway Response Fatty acid metabolism hsa01212
Ferroptosis hsa04216
Cell Process Cell ferroptosis
Cell proliferation
In Vitro Model
Hep-G2 cells Hepatoblastoma Homo sapiens CVCL_0027
PLC/PRF/5 cells Hepatocellular carcinoma Homo sapiens CVCL_0485
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.
