Drugs Repurposed As Antiferroptosis Agents Suppress Organ Damage, Including AKI, by Functioning As Lipid Peroxyl Radical Scavengers BASIC RESEARCH www.jasn.org Drugs Repurposed as Antiferroptosis Agents Suppress Organ Damage, Including AKI, by Functioning as Lipid Peroxyl Radical Scavengers Eikan Mishima ,1 Emiko Sato,1,2 Junya Ito,3 Ken-ichi Yamada,4 Chitose Suzuki,1 Yoshitsugu Oikawa,5 Tetsuro Matsuhashi,5 Koichi Kikuchi,1 Takafumi Toyohara,1 Takehiro Suzuki,1 Sadayoshi Ito,1,6 Kiyotaka Nakagawa,3 and Takaaki Abe 1,7,8 Due to the number of contributing authors, the affiliations are listed at the end of this article. ABSTRACT Background Ferroptosis, nonapoptotic cell death mediated by free radical reactions and driven by the oxidative degradation of lipids, is a therapeutic target because of its role in organ damage, including AKI. Ferroptosis-causing radicals that are targeted by ferroptosis suppressors have not been unequivocally iden- tified. Because certain cytochrome P450 substrate drugs can prevent lipid peroxidation via obscure mecha- nisms, we evaluated their antiferroptotic potential and used them to identify ferroptosis-causing radicals. Methods Using a cell-based assay, we screened cytochrome P450 substrate compounds to identify drugs with antiferroptotic activity and investigated the underlying mechanism. To evaluate radical-scavenging activity, we used electron paramagnetic resonance–spin trapping methods and a fluorescence probe for lipid radicals, NBD-Pen, that we had developed. We then assessed the therapeutic potency of these drugs in mouse models of cisplatin-induced AKI and LPS/galactosamine-induced liver injury. Results We identified various US Food and Drug Administration–approved drugs and hormones that have antiferroptotic properties, including rifampicin, promethazine, omeprazole, indole-3-carbinol, carvedilol, pro- pranolol, estradiol, and thyroid hormones. The antiferroptotic drug effects were closely associated with the scavenging of lipid peroxyl radicals but not significantly related to interactions with other radicals. The ele- vated lipid peroxyl radical levels were associated with ferroptosis onset, and known ferroptosis suppressors, such as ferrostatin-1, also functioned as lipid peroxyl radical scavengers. The drugs exerted antiferroptotic activities in various cell types, including tubules, podocytes, and renal fibroblasts. Moreover, in mice, the drugs ameliorated AKI and liver injury, with suppression of tissue lipid peroxidation and decreased cell death. Conclusions Although elevated lipid peroxyl radical levels can trigger ferroptosis onset, some drugs that scavenge lipid peroxyl radicals can help control ferroptosis-related disorders, including AKI.

The process of ferroptotic cell death is defined by the accumulation of lethal lipid species derived from the peroxidation of lipids, which can be prevented by iron chelators (e.g., deferiprone, deferoxamine) and small lipophilic antioxidants (e.g., ferrostatin, liproxstatin). This review summarizes current knowledge about the regulatory mechanism of ferroptosis and its association with several pathways, including iron, lipid, and cysteine metabolism. We have further discussed the contribution of ferroptosis to the pathogenesis of several diseases such as cancer, ischemia/reperfusion, and various neurodegenerative diseases (e.g., Alzheimer’s disease and Parkinson’s disease), and evaluated the therapeutic applications of ferroptosis inhibitors in clinics. Signal Transduction and Targeted Therapy (2021) ;6:49 https://doi.org/10.1038/s41392-020-00428-9 INTRODUCTION Ferroptosis can be prevented by using iron chelators (e.g., Ferroptosis is a newly identified iron-dependent cell death that is deferoxamine), whereas supplying exogenous iron (e.g., ferric different from other cell death forms, including apoptosis and ammonium citrate) enhances ferroptosis.1,7 Several studies have 1234567890();,: necrosis.

This ability of iron in the redox cycle as a ferrous ion enables it to react with H2O2, in the Fenton reaction, to produce a hydroxyl radical ( OH)—one of the reactive oxygen species (ROS) that cause deleterious oxidative damage • to DNA, proteins, and membrane lipids. Ferroptosis is a non-apoptotic regulated cell death that is dependent on iron and reactive oxygen species (ROS) and is characterized by lipid peroxidation. It is triggered when the endogenous antioxidant status of the cell is compromised, leading to lipid ROS accumulation that is toxic and damaging to the membrane structure. Consequently, oxidative stress and the antioxidant levels of the cells are important modulators of lipid peroxidation that induce this novel form of cell death. Remedies capable of averting iron-dependent lipid peroxidation, therefore, are lipophilic antioxidants, including vitamin E, ferrostatin-1 (Fer-1), liproxstatin-1 (Lip-1) and possibly potent bioactive polyphenols.

  • Ferroptosis-Related Flavoproteins: Their Function and Stability
    International Journal of Molecular Sciences Review Ferroptosis-Related Flavoproteins: Their Function and Stability R. Martin Vabulas Charité-Universitätsmedizin, Institute of Biochemistry, Charitéplatz 1, 10117 Berlin, Germany; [email protected]; Tel.: +49-30-4505-28176 Abstract: Ferroptosis has been described recently as an iron-dependent cell death driven by peroxida- tion of membrane lipids. It is involved in the pathogenesis of a number of diverse diseases. From the other side, the induction of ferroptosis can be used to kill tumor cells as a novel therapeutic approach. Because of the broad clinical relevance, a comprehensive understanding of the ferroptosis-controlling protein network is necessary. Noteworthy, several proteins from this network are flavoenzymes. This review is an attempt to present the ferroptosis-related flavoproteins in light of their involvement in anti-ferroptotic and pro-ferroptotic roles. When available, the data on the structural stability of mutants and cofactor-free apoenzymes are discussed. The stability of the flavoproteins could be an important component of the cellular death processes. Keywords: flavoproteins; riboflavin; ferroptosis; lipid peroxidation; protein quality control 1. Introduction Human flavoproteome encompasses slightly more than one hundred enzymes that par- ticipate in a number of key metabolic pathways. The chemical versatility of flavoproteins relies on the associated cofactors, flavin mononucleotide (FMN) and flavin adenine dinu- cleotide (FAD). In humans, flavin cofactors are biosynthesized from a precursor riboflavin that has to be supplied with food. To underline its nutritional essentiality, riboflavin is called vitamin B2.

  • Ferroptosis: Mechanisms, Biology and Role in Disease
    REVIEWS Ferroptosis: mechanisms, biology and role in disease Xuejun Jiang 1 ✉ , Brent R. Stockwell 2,3 ✉ and Marcus Conrad 4,5 ✉ Abstract | The research field of ferroptosis has seen exponential growth over the past few years, since the term was coined in 2012. This unique modality of cell death, driven by iron-dependent phospholipid peroxidation, is regulated by multiple cellular metabolic pathways, including redox homeostasis, iron handling, mitochondrial activity and metabolism of amino acids, lipids and sugars, in addition to various signalling pathways relevant to disease. Numerous organ injuries and degenerative pathologies are driven by ferroptosis. Intriguingly, therapy-resistant cancer cells, particularly those in the mesenchymal state and prone to metastasis, are exquisitely vulnerable to ferroptosis. As such, pharmacological modulation of ferroptosis, via both its induction and its inhibition, holds great potential for the treatment of drug-resistant cancers, ischaemic organ injuries and other degenerative diseases linked to extensive lipid peroxidation. In this Review, we provide a critical analysis of the current molecular mechanisms and regulatory networks of ferroptosis, the potential physiological functions of ferroptosis in tumour suppression and immune surveillance, and its pathological roles, together with a potential for therapeutic targeting. Importantly, as in all rapidly evolving research areas, challenges exist due to misconceptions and inappropriate experimental methods. This Review also aims to address these issues and to provide practical guidelines for enhancing reproducibility and reliability in studies of ferroptosis. Finally, we discuss important concepts and pressing questions that should be the focus of future ferroptosis research. Cells represent the fundamental organizing unit of and intercellular contacts, as well as oncogenic and life.

Ferroptosis-inducing factors can directly or indirectly affect glutathione peroxidase through different pathways, resulting in a decrease in antioxidant capacity and accumulation of lipid reactive oxygen species (ROS) in cells, ultimately leading to oxidative cell death. Recent studies have shown that ferroptosis is closely related to the pathophysiological processes of many diseases, such as tumors, nervous system diseases, ischemia-reperfusion injury, kidney injury, and blood diseases. How to intervene in the occurrence and development of related diseases by regulating cell ferroptosis has become a hotspot and focus of etiological research and treatment, but the functional changes and specific molecular mechanisms of ferroptosis still need to be further explored. This paper systematically summarizes the latest progress in ferroptosis research, with a focus on providing references for further understanding of its pathogenesis and for proposing new targets for the treatment of related diseases.

Abstract: Retinitis pigmentosa (RP) is a leading cause of inherited retinal degeneration, with more than 60 gene mutations. Despite the genetic heterogenicity, photoreceptor cell damage remains the hallmark of RP pathology. As a result, RP patients usually suffer from reduced night vision, loss of peripheral vision, decreased visual acuity, and impaired color perception. Although photoreceptor cell death is the primary outcome of RP, the underlying mechanisms are not completely elucidated. Ferroptosis is a novel programmed cell death, with characteristic iron overload and lipid peroxidation. Recent studies, using in vitro and in vivo RP models, discovered the involvement of ferroptosis- associated cell death, suggesting a possible new mechanism for RP pathogenesis. In this review, we discuss the association between ferroptosis and photoreceptor cell damage, and its implication in the pathogenesis of RP. We propose that ferroptotic cell death not only opens up a new research area in RP, but may also serve as a novel therapeutic target for RP.
