Article Title: Schisantherin A induces ferroptosis in non-small cell lung cancer through activation of the YAP/ACSL4/TfR signaling pathway
doi: 10.3892/mmr.2025.13734
Figure Lengend Snippet: Silencing of YAP reverses Sch A-induced ferroptosis. Western blot analysis showed that the expression of YAP was decreased in (A) A549 and (B) HCC827 cells. In (C) A549 and (D) HCC827 cells, si-YAP decreased the expression of YAP and downstream signaling molecules. Fe 2+ accumulation was induced by Sch A in (E) A549 and (F) HCC827 cells, and the increase in Fe 2+ was reversed by YAP silencing, as demonstrated by FerroOrange staining (scale bar, 10 µm). After silencing YAP, the Sch A-induced increase in Fe 2+ and MDA in (G) A549 and (H) HCC827 cells was reduced. *P<0.05, **P<0.01 and ***P<0.001 vs. NC; ### P<0.001 vs. Sch A. NC, negative control; YAP, yes-associated protein; Sch A, Schisantherin A; si, small interfering RNA; MDA, malondialdehyde; ACSL4, acyl-CoA synthase long-chain family member 4; TfR, transferrin receptor.
