General Information

General Information Comment Organism
malfunction silencing of GPx4 by RNA interference and exposure to tert-butyl hydroperoxide (tert-BHP) causes ferroptosis in rat pancreatic beta-cells as evidenced by non-apoptotic cell death in association with increased lipid peroxidation, disturbs ATP synthesis, and reduces GSH content and GPx4 degradation. GPx4 overexpression as well as the ferroptosis inhibitor ferrostatin-1 effectively attenuate beta-cell death induced by tert-BHP. siGPx4- transfected INS-1E cells start to die 96 h post-transfection due to GPx4 deficiency, overview. Overexpression of GPx4 in insulin-producing RINm5F cells prevents tert-BHP-induced cell death Rattus norvegicus
metabolism beta-cell toxic cytokines did not induce ferroptosis although beta-cells underwent cell death. Inhibition of iNOS by Nomega-nitro-L-arginine however led to a massive lipid peroxidation upon exposure to pro-inflammatory cytokines. Hence, nitric oxide produced during pro-inflammatory cytokine action prevents the induction of ferroptosis, thereby favouring apoptosis as a primary cell death mechanism. The extraordinarily high abundance of the phospholipid hydroperoxidase GPx4 in beta-cells in contrast to the very low expression in other islet cell types points to a susceptibility of beta-cells to the accumulation of toxic lipid peroxides. No involvement of ferroptosis as an alternative beta-cell death mode under pro-inflammatory cytokine attack Rattus norvegicus
