Liproxstatin-1 is a potent ferroptosis inhibitor and inhibits ferroptotic cell death (IC50=22 nM).
Liproxstatin-1 shows antiferroptotic activity with an IC50 of approximately 38 nM in mouse embryonic fibroblasts[2].
Liproxstatin-1 (10 mg/kg, i.p.) suppresses ferroptosis in human cells, Gpx4 / kidney and in an ischaemia/reperfusion-induced tissue injury model[1].
Animals includes in the treatment study of inducible Gpx4−/− mice are equally distributed between sex and weight, with typically 8-10 weeks of age. The average weight within the groups is between 22 and 24 g. Groups are formed to have comparable numbers of females/males of the same age. Animal weight is arranged to have a similar distribution between females and males. For the pharmacological inhibitor experiments, CreERT2
Gpx4fl/fl mice are injected on day 1 and 3 with 0.5 mg TAM dissolved in Miglyol. On day 4, compound treatment is started (Liproxstatin-1: 10 mg/kg) along with vehicle control (1% dimethylsulphoxide (DMSO) in PBS). Liproxstatin-1 and vehicle control are administered once daily by i.p. injection. Survival analysis is performed using the GraphPad Prism software and statistical analysis is done according to the log-rank test.
To induce the knockout of Gpx4, cells are seeded onto 96-well plates (1,000 cells per well) and treated with 1 μM 4-OH-ICI 47699 (TAM) after plating. Cell viability is assessed at different time points after treatment (usually 72 h) using AquaBluer, unless stated otherwise, as an indicator of viable cells. Alternatively, cell death is also quantified by measuring released lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) activity using the Cytotoxicity Detection Kit.
