RSL3-NH2 hydrochloride is a GPX4 inhibitor and ferroptosis inducer. RSL3-NH2 hydrochloride triggers the iron-dependent cell death pathway associated with lipid peroxidation by inhibiting GPX4 activity. RSL3-NH2 hydrochloride exhibits significant cytotoxicity against colorectal cancer cells and effectively induces their ferroptosis. RSL3-NH2 hydrochloride can serve as a ADC payload for synthesizing a ADC and be used in colorectal cancer-related research [1].
In Vivo, ADC Conjugated from RSL3-NH2 hydrochloride and Bispecific Antibody: CDH17 x GUCY2C-RSL3-NH2 ADC (1 mg/kg; intravenous injection; once every 5 days; 7 doses total) induces significant regression of SW1463 colorectal cancer tumors and robust ferroptosis (elevated levels of MDA and 4-HNE) in nude mice[1]. CDH17 x GUCY2C-RSL3-NH2 hydrochloride ADC (1 mg/kg; intravenous injection; once every 5 days; 7 injections in total) induces significant regression of LS1034 colorectal tumors in nude mice and triggers strong ferroptosis (elevated levels of MDA and 4-HNE)[1]. CDH17 x GUCY2C-RSL3-NH2 hydrochloride ADC (1 mg/kg; intravenous injection; once every 5 days; 7 injections total) exhibits favorable safety in double-humanized BALB/c mice, with no hepatotoxicity or organ damage detected[1].
In Vitro, The ADC formed by conjugating RSL3-NH2 hydrochloride with a bispecific antibody, namely CDH17 x GUCY2C-RSL3-NH2 hydrochloride ADC, potently inhibits the proliferation of SW1463 and LS1034 cells and induces significant MDA and lipid ROS accumulation, with IC50 values of 4.97 μg/mL and 2.249 μg/mL at 72 h, respectively[1]. CDH17 x GUCY2C-RSL3-NH2 hydrochloride ADC (5 μg/mL; 72 h) exhibits bystander cytotoxicity against CDH17/GUCY2C-negative HT-29 cells when co-cultured with CDH17/GUCY2C-positive SW1463 or LS1034 cells[1].
