An essential role for functional lysosomes in ferroptosis of cancer cells
Abstract
Pharmacological challenges to oncogenic Ras-expressing cancer cells have shown a novel type of cell death, ferroptosis, which requires intracellular iron. In the present study, we assessed ferroptosis following treatment of human fibrosarcoma HT1080 cells with several inhibitors of lysosomal activity and found that they prevented cell death induced by the ferroptosis-inducing compounds erastin and RSL3. Fluorescent analyses with a reactive oxygen species (ROS) sensor revealed constitutive generation of ROS in lysosomes, and treatment with lysosome inhibitors decreased both lysosomal ROS and a ferroptotic cell-death-associated ROS burst. These inhibitors partially prevented intracellular iron provision by attenuating intracellular transport of transferrin or autophagic degradation of ferritin. Furthermore, analyses with a fluorescent sensor that detects oxidative changes in cell membranes revealed that formation of lipid ROS in perinuclear compartments probably represented an early event in ferroptosis. These results suggest that lysosomal activity is involved in lipid ROS-mediated ferroptotic cell death through regulation of cellular iron equilibria and ROS generation.

“Alternatively, the critical dependency of ferroptosis on iron can also be ascribed to the ability of this heavy metal to promote non-enzymatic lipid oxidation via lysosomal Fenton reactions [538, 572, 576, 577].”

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
