While acute iron exposure produced minimal biochemical changes and did not sensitize cells to oxidative or ferroptotic challenges, chronic iron exposure induced ferritin upregulation, mitochondrial superoxide accumulation, suppression of GPX4 expression, elevated lipid peroxidation and loss of cellular glutathione (GSH)
Building on the evidence of Erastin-induced cell death mentioned earlier, we posit that Erastin can restrain lesion growth in EMS by inhibiting system Xc , depleting cystine and GSH, compromising GPX4 activity, and driving lipid peroxidation within EESCs
However, this approach can lead to digestive discomfort and is often inefficient
