Family | Transferrin family | ||||
Function |
Transferrins are iron binding transport proteins which can bind two Fe(3+) ions in association with the binding of an anion, usually bicarbonate. It is responsible for the transport of iron from sites of absorption and heme degradation to those of storage and utilization. Serum transferrin may also have a further role in stimulating cell proliferation.; (Microbial infection) Serves as an iron source for Neisseria species, which capture the protein and extract its iron for their own use.

Response Description | Simvastatin has the potential to be a targeted drug for endometrial cancer (EC) treatment. Besides, the inhibition to the RAS/MAPK signaling pathway allows simvastatin to induce ferroptosis through up-regulating the level of ROS, MDA, Fe2+, and TRF1 (TF) and reducing the level of GSH, SLC7A11, and FPN in cells. | |||

Response Description | The lipogenesis regulator SREBP2 directly induces transcription of the iron carrier Transferrin (TF), reducing intracellular iron pools, reactive oxygen species, and lipid peroxidation, thereby conferring resistance to inducers of ferroptosis. SREBP2-driven iron homeostatic pathways contribute to cancer progression, drug resistance, and metastasis in melanoma cancers. | ||||

C57BL/6J SPF mice were purchased from Huazhong Agricultural University Experimental Animal Center. Mice were given tertian intraperitoneal injections of either PBS (control) or dextriferron (500 mg/kg body weight) for 2 weeks and then sacrificed. Mice were given a daily intraperitoneal injection of either vehicle or ferrostatin-1 (Fer1, 1 mg/kg body weight) for 3 weeks before sacrificed.

5-week-old immunodeficient nude mice (male, weight, 16-20 g, n = 40 mice for each group) were purchased from Cyagen bio. Co. (Beijing, China). Before experiments, the mice were adapted to the breeding environment for two weeks. All mice were maintained at a 12 h/12 h light/dark cycle with free access to water and food. A total of 5 x 106 HT-29 or HCT-116 cells were suspended in 100 uL PBS and injected subcutaneously into the right posterior flanks of nude mice. After three weeks, the mice were killed and the tumor xenografts were dissected, weighed and fixed in 10% buffered formaldehyde for further IHC analysis.
