Abstract

Significance: Cell death by regulated necrosis causes tremendous tissue damage in a wide variety of diseases, including myocardial infarction, stroke, sepsis, and ischemia–reperfusion injury upon solid organ transplantation. Here, we demonstrate that an iron-dependent form of regulated necrosis, referred to as ferroptosis, mediates regulated necrosis and synchronized death of functional units in diverse organs upon ischemia and other stimuli, thereby triggering a detrimental immune response. We developed a novel third-generation inhibitor of ferroptosis that is the first compound in this class that is stable in plasma and liver microsomes and that demonstrates high efficacy when supplied alone or in combination therapy.

  • In an oxalate-induced mouse model of AKI, evidence of inflammation was observed, and the ferroptosis inhibitor Ferrostatin-1 successfully inhibited neutrophil infiltration and the expression of pro-inflammatory cytokines such as CXCL-2 and IL-6.

  • Ferroptosis is potentially associated with a consistent release of immunostimulatory DAMPs.

  • A similar protective effect is observed in GPX4-independent models of renal ischemic or toxic injury, Parkinson disease, and other human pathologies.

    “A similar protective effect is observed in GPX4-independent models of renal ischemic or toxic injury [540, 592], Parkinson disease [593], and other human pathologies [594].”
  • Pharmacological inhibition of ferroptosis, but not necroptosis or apoptosis, protects tissues such as renal tubules from ischemia/reperfusion injury.

    “the pharmacological inhibition of ferroptosis, but not necroptosis or apoptosis, protects tissues such as renal tubules from ischemia/reperfusion injury [540].”
  • SRS16-86, a third-generation ferrostatin with greater plasma and metabolic stability, protects kidney function and extends mouse survival after renal ischemia-reperfusion injury.

    “SRS16–86 is a third generation ferrostatin with increased plasma and metabolic stability; in an in vivo model of renal ischemia-reperfusion injury, SRS16–86 protected kidney function and extended mouse survival after ischemia-reperfusion injury [58].”

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.
