    Product Description

    Liproxstatin-1 is a ferroptosis inhibitor.1 It inhibits ferroptotic cell death (IC50 = 22 nM) and lipid peroxidation in mouse embryonic fibroblasts (MEFs) with an inducible knockdown of glutathione peroxidase 4 (Gpx4-/- MEFs) when used at a concentration of 50 nM. Liproxstatin-1 also inhibits ferroptosis induced by the ferroptosis-inducing agents L-buthionine sulphoximine (BSO), erastin (Item No. 17754), and (1S,3R)-RSL3 (Item No. 19288) in a concentration-dependent manner in MEFs, but does not inhibit necroptosis, apoptosis, or necrosis. It inhibits cell death and lipid peroxidation induced by (1S,3R)-RSL3 in human renal proximal tubule epithelial cells. Liproxstatin-1 (10 mg/kg) increases survival and decreases TUNEL+ kidney cells in inducible Gpx4-/- mice and reduces tissue injury in a mouse model of hepatic ischemia/reperfusion injury. It is also an antioxidant that inhibits autooxidation of lipids by trapping peroxyl radicals.2

    WARNING This product is not for human or veterinary use.
