| 1 | Ginsenoside Rh3 induces pyroptosis and ferroptosis through the Stat3/p53/NRF2 axis in colorectal cancer cells显示文摘Ginsenoside Rh3(GRh3)is a seminatural product obtained by chemical processing after isolation from Chinese herbal medicine that has strong antitumor activity against human tumors.However,its antitumor role remains to be elucidated.The aim of this study is to explore the mechanisms underlying the tumor suppressive activity of GRh3 from the perspective of pyroptosis and ferroptosis.GRh3 eliminates colorectal cancer(CRC)cells by activating gasdermin D(GSDMD)-dependent pyroptosis and suppressing solute carrier family 7 member 11(SLC7A11),resulting in ferroptosis activation through the Stat3/p53/NRF2 axis.GRh3 suppresses nuclear factor erythroid 2-related factor 2(NRF2)entry into the nucleus,leading to the decrease of heme oxygenase 1(HO-1)expression,which in turn promotes NOD-like receptor thermal protein domain associated protein 3(NLRP3)and caspase-1 expression.Finally,caspase-1 activates GSDMD-dependent pyroptosis.Furthermore,GRh3 prevents NRF2 from entering the nucleus,which suppresses SLC7A11,causing the depletion of glutathione(GSH)and accumulation of iron,lipid reactive oxygen species(ROS)and malondialdehyde(MDA),and eventually leading to ferroptosis in CRC cells.In addition,GRh3 effectively inhibits the proliferation of CRC cells in vitro and in nude mouse models.Collectively,GRh3 triggers pyroptotic cell death and ferroptotic cell death in CRC cells via the Stat3/p53/NRF2 axis with minimal harm to normal cells,showing great anticancer potential. | Yingchao Wu Dajin Pi Shuyao Zhou Zhongjia Yi Yangyang Dong Wuhong Wang Huan Ye Yiliu Chen Qian Zuo Mingzi Ouyang | 2023 | Acta Biochimica et Biophysica Sinica2023，55，4： | 1 |
