Experiment 1 Reporting the Ferroptosis Target of This Regulator [1]
Target for Ferroptosis Suppressor
Responsed Disease Breast cancer ICD-11: 2C60
Pathway Response Fatty acid metabolism hsa01212
Ubiquitin mediated proteolysis hsa04120
Cell Process Cell ferroptosis
In Vitro Model
BT-474 cells Invasive breast carcinoma Homo sapiens CVCL_0179
SK-BR-3 cells Breast adenocarcinoma Homo sapiens CVCL_0033
In Vivo Model
A total of 24 NOD/SCID mice were purchased from Model Animal Research Center and grown under specific-pathogen-free condition. Mice were randomly divided into three groups (n = 8 per group), BT474-Tr cells were inoculated orthotopically onto the abdominal mammary fat pad. After 1 week, mice were treated with erastin (15 mg/kg intraperitoneal, twice every other day). Erastin was dissolved in 5% DMSO + corn oil (C8267, Sigma). To better dissolve erastin, we warmed the tube at 37 water bath and shook it gently. At the end of the sixth week, all mice were sacrificed, tumor tissues were collected and weighed.

Response regulation Knockdown of circ-BGN inhibited breast cancer cell viability and notably restored its sensitivity to trastuzumab. Further, we found that circ-BGN could directly bind to OTUB1 and SLC7A11, enhancing OTUB1-mediated SLC7A11 deubiquitination and thereby inhibiting ferroptosis.
