Information
RSL3 RSL3 ((1S,3R)-RSL3) is a ferroptosis activator in a VDAC-independent manner,exhibiting selectivity for tumor cells bearing oncogenic RAS. RSL3 binds, inactivates GPX4 and thus mediates GPX4-regulated ferroptosis.
In vitro
Ferroptosis-inducing compounds inactivate GPX4 by direct binding or by depleting glutathione.After binding to GPX4, RSL3 inactivates GPX4 to induce ROS production from lipid peroxidation. RSL3\'s ability to induce synthetic lethality with oncogenic RAS is rapid and quite potent. This compound inhibits the growth of BJ-TERT/LT/ST/RASV12 and DRD cells as low as 10 ng/mland started to kill sensitive cells as early as 8 hr after treatment.
In vivo
Prostaglandin-endoperoxide synthase (PTGS) is the key enzyme in prostaglandin biosynthesis. There are two isozymes of PTGS: a constitutive PTGS1 and an inducible PTGS2. PTGS2 encoding cyclooxygenase-2 (COX-2) is significantly upregulated after treatment with RSL3 and erastin in mice.
