Background

Ferrostatin-1 is a selective inhibitor of ferroptosis.

Ferroptosis is a regulated, oxidative, nanapoptotic cell death, Ferrostatin-1 has been founded as a potent inhibitor of it. Fer-1 can attenuate oxidative, iron-dependent cancer cell death through blocking cystine import and glutathione production. It had been reported to prevent Huntington's disease cellular models to death by inhibiting lipid peroxidation.[1]

Protocol

Cell experiment [1]:

Cell lines

Healthy medium spiny neurons, oligodendrocytes, kidney proximal tubules cell

Preparation method

The solubility of this compound in DMSO is >9.8mg/mL. General tips for obtaining a higher concentration: Please warm the tube at 37 ℃ for 10 minutes and/or shake it in the ultrasonic bath for a while. Stock solution can be stored below -20℃ for several months.

Reacting condition

10 nM, 100 nM, and 1 μM

Applications

Fer-1 (10 nM, 100 nM, and 1 μM) significantly increased the number of healthy MSNs. Fer-1 (1 μM) statistically increased the number of healthy MSN. Fer-1 (100 nM) fully protected oligodendrocytes from cystine deprivation. Fer-1 (0.1-2 μM) prevented lethality induced by hydroxyquinoline and ferrous ammonium sulfate (HQ + Fe; 10 μM each).

Other notes

Please test the solubility of all compounds indoor, and the actual solubility may slightly differ with the theoretical value. This is caused by an experimental system error and it is normal.
