“…At present, RSL3 or erastin is known to induce ferroptosis by inhibiting the activity of glutathione peroxidase 4 (GPX4). , HeLa cells treated with RSL3 (1 μM) or erastin (10 μM), followed by the treatment with SRF-HClO (10 μM) for 0.5 h, showed strong red fluorescent signals from inside the lysosomes with feeble green fluorescent signals (Figure ), indicating that the HClO level increased significantly during the ferroptosis process. However, upon incubating the cells with ferrostatin-1 (Fer-1, a classical ferroptosis inhibitor), the fluorescence intensity of the probe remained basically the same as that of the probe only. , In addition, further validated by flow cytometry, the conclusion was consistent with the above (Figure S8). These results indicate that SRF-HClO has the ability to monitor dynamic HClO during the ferroptosis process.…”
