Description of Erastin2

Erastin2 is a potent system xc- inhibitor and ferroptosis-inducing agent [1].

Erastin2 (5µM, 24h) significantly inhibited the activity of human HAP1 haploid cells, and that erastin2-induced cell death was inhibited by co-treatment with the lipophilic radical-trapping antioxidant ferrostatin-1 or the iron chelator deferoxamine (DFO), but not the pan-caspase inhibitor Q-VD-OPh [1]. Erastin2 induced ferroptosis in HT-1080(1 µM), T98G glioblastoma (1 µM), and A549 non-small-cell lung carcinoma cells (2 µM), and non-transformed IMR-90 diploid fibroblasts (125nM) [2]. Erastin2 (1 µM) inhibited system xc- function, depleted total glutathione (GSH + GSSG), and upregulated CHAC1 expression [2]. Erastin2 (1-10µM) increased FSP1KO cells sensitivity [3]. In the context of erastin2-induced ferroptosis, the onset of cell death correlates with the oxidation of the lipid peroxide-sensitive probe C11 BODIPY 581/591 (C11) (Cat.No. GC40165) specifically at the plasma membrane, linking the onset of cell death to a key terminal marker of the ferroptotic process [1].

Protocol of Erastin2

Cell experiment [1]:

Cell lines

Caki-1 cells

Preparation Method

Caki-1 cells were seeded in a 96-well dish at 4000 (cells treated with control shRNA constructs and nutlin-3) or 2000 (all other treatments) cells/well and infected with lentiviruses carrying non-targeting shRNAs (sh-NT) or shRNAs targeting CDKN1A at an M.O.I. of ~1 in media containing 8 µg/mL Polybrene (source). Infected cells were then spun at 1000 rpm for 1 h at room temperature. The next day, virus-containing medium was removed, and cells were incubated in medium containing puromycin (10 µg/mL) and DMSO or nutlin-3 (10 µM) for a further 24 h. Media was then removed and replaced with media containing SYTOX Green (0.022 µM), DMSO or nutlin-3 (10 µM), and DMSO or erastin2 (1 µM), and cell death was assayed for the subsequent 48 h using time-lapse imaging. Cell death was assessed by counting SYTOX Green positive cells over time.

Reaction Conditions

1 µM, for 48 h

Applications

Short hairpin RNA (shRNA)-mediated silencing of CDKN1A in Caki-1 cells likewise abrogated the ability of nutlin-3 pretreatment to delay subsequent erastin2-induced cell death.
