Abstract

Ferroptosis is closely related to disease progression and treatment response in human brain gliomas; however, the regulatory mechanisms involved remain to be elucidated. Identifying new ferroptosis regulatory factors holds promise for addressing the aberrant regulation of ferroptosis in glioblastoma (GBM) and overcoming its treatment resistance. In this research, bioinformatics revealed that SLC10A3 is upregulated in GBM and correlates with poor patient prognosis. Functional analysis showed that SLC10A3 regulates GBM growth and progression through ferroptosis and that silencing SLC10A3 enhances sensitivity to the ferroptosis inducer Erastin. Mechanistically, SLC10A3 modulates STAT3 transcription and phosphorylation, impacting GBM ferroptosis via the STAT3-GPX4 pathway, and the STAT3 phosphorylation inhibitor Stattic effectively reverses this process. In vivo experiments also demonstrated that silencing SLC10A3 effectively induces ferroptosis in GBM and inhibits GBM progression. Our findings may help elucidate the mechanisms behind GBM resistance and offer new potential therapeutic targets.

摘要

铁死亡与人类脑胶质瘤的疾病进展和治疗反应密切相关;然而,其中涉及的调控机制仍有待阐明。识别新的铁死亡调控因子有望解决胶质母细胞瘤(GBM)中铁死亡的异常调控问题,并克服其治疗抗性。在本研究中,生物信息学分析显示,SLC10A3在GBM中上调,且与患者预后不良相关。功能分析表明,SLC10A3通过铁死亡调节GBM的生长和进展,沉默SLC10A3可增强对铁死亡诱导剂埃拉斯汀的敏感性。机制上,SLC10A3调节STAT3的转录和磷酸化,通过STAT3-GPX4途径影响GBM铁死亡,而STAT3磷酸化抑制剂Stattic可有效逆转这一过程。体内实验还表明,沉默SLC10A3可有效诱导GBM中的铁死亡并抑制GBM进展。我们的研究结果可能有助于阐明GBM抗性背后的机制,并提供新的潜在治疗靶点。
