Experiment 1 Reporting the Ferroptosis Target of This Regulator [1]
Target for Ferroptosis Driver
Responsed Disease Hepatocellular carcinoma ICD-11: 2C12
Responsed Drug Sorafenib Investigative
Pathway Response Fatty acid metabolism hsa01212
Ferroptosis hsa04216
Cell Process Cell ferroptosis
In Vitro Model
MHCC97-L cells Hepatocellular carcinoma Homo sapiens CVCL_4973
PLC/PRF/5 cells Hepatocellular carcinoma Homo sapiens CVCL_0485
HEK293 FT cells Normal Homo sapiens CVCL_6911
In Vivo Model
Parental MHCC97L cells (2 x 106 cells/mouse) were subcutaneously injected into the 4-to-5-week-old NOD-SCID mice. When the tumours reached a volume of around 50-100 mm3 (calculated by the formula 4/3(D/2)(d/2)2, where D and d represent the minor and major axis of the tumour, respectively), the maximum tolerated dose of sorafenib (50 mg/kg) was given to the mice by oral gavage daily until the drug resistance occurred, denoted as the drug resistant group. For the control, the wild type group was treated with the vehicle (0.5% CMC-Na). The tumour size and body weight were measured every 3 days.

Response regulation Sorafenib treatment triggered ferroptosis via lipid ROS production and chelatable iron accumulation. The ETS1 upregulated by sorafenib was a key transcription factor of miR-23a-3p that directly enhanced miR-23a-3p expression. MiR-23a-3p recognized and bound to ACSL4 3UTR to limit lipid ROS production, thus attenuating sorafenib-induced ferroptotic cell death in hepatocellular carcinoma.

Experiment 1 Reporting the Ferroptosis Target of This Regulator [2]
Target for Ferroptosis Driver
Responsed Disease Acute myocardial infarction ICD-11: BA41
Pathway Response Fatty acid metabolism hsa01212
Ferroptosis hsa04216
Cell Process Cell ferroptosis
In Vitro Model
hUCB-MSCs (Human umbilical cord blood derived mesenchymal stem cells)
In Vivo Model
A total of 72 C57BL/6J mice (six animals per group) were obtained from the Shanghai Laboratory Animals Center. The mouse model of AMI was performed by permanent ligation of the LAD coronary artery. PBS or exosomes (5 ug, in 20 ul PBS) was injected into the border zone of infarcted heart at three sites.

Response regulation The exosome of MSCs derived from human umbilical cord blood (HUCB-MSC) has been reported to have cardioprotective effects on mouse models of acute myocardial infarction (AMI) and cardiomyocyte hypoxia injury. HUCB-MSCs-exosomes may suppress DMT1 expression by miR-23a-3p to inhibit ferroptosis and attenuate myocardial injury.
