Erastin2 is a ferroptosis inducer and an inhibitor of the system xc- cystine/glutamate transporter. It inhibits glutamate release in CCF-STTG1 cells (IC50 = 0.0035 µM). It induces cell death in HAP1 cells when used at a concentration of 5 µM, an effect that can be blocked by the ferroptosis inhibitor ferrostatin-1...

Description: Erastin2 is a ferroptosis inducer and inhibitor of the system xc- cystine/glutamate transporter.[1][2] It inhibits glutamate release in CCF-STTG1 cells (IC50 = 0.0035 µM) and induces cell death in HAP1 cells at 5 µM, an effect blocked by ferrostatin-1 or deferoxamine.[1][2] Erastin2 also induces...
