Physical and Chemical Properties | Bioactive Erastin is a ferroptosis activator that acts by acting on mitochondrial VDAC, selectively acting on tumor cells carrying the oncogene RAS. |
Use | Erastin |
Target | Target Value Ferroptosis |
In vitro study | Erastin selectively kills the oncogenic Ras mutant cell line and triggers a unique fe-dependent, non-apoptotic cell death called ferroptosis. Erastin binds directly to VDAC2 and causes the production of ROS through an NADH-dependent manner leading to mitochondrial damage, inducing cell death through the RAS-RAF-MEK pathway in some tumor cells expressing activating mutations. In addition, erastin strongly enhances the effects of wild-type EGFR cells by inducing ROS-mediated CID (caspase-independent cell death).

In vivo study | Intraperitoneal injection of erastin at well-tolerated doses dramatically inhibits HT-29 xenograft growth in severe combined immunodeficient mice. |
