Figure Lengend Snippet: FBR-NDs Inhibit Breast Cancer Cell Growth in vitro. a Cell viability of BT549 and MDA-MB-231 cells treated with PBS, R848, BMS-1, R848 + BMS-1, Fe 3+ -R848, Fe 3+ -BMS-1, or FBR-NDs for 48 h, determined using MTT assays. Cell viability was significantly reduced in the Fe 3+ -containing groups, with the most pronounced cytotoxicity observed in FBR-NDs-treated cells. b Colony formation assay in BT549 and MDA-MB-231 cells following treatment. The number of colonies was significantly reduced in Fe 3+ -R848, Fe 3+ -BMS-1, and FBR-NDs-treated cells. c DNA replication capacity in treated BT549 and MDA-MB-231 cells. The ability to replicate DNA was significantly diminished in Fe 3+ -containing groups, especially in the FBR-NDs-treated group. d Caspase-3/7 activity was measured in BT549 and MDA-MB-231 cells. Treatment with Fe 3+ -R848, Fe 3+ -BMS-1, and FBR-NDs led to a significant increase in caspase-3/7 activity, indicating enhanced apoptosis. e Senescence-associated β-galactosidase (SA-β-gal) staining in treated cells. FBR-NDs treatment resulted in a significant increase in senescence. f TUNEL staining in BT549 and MDA-MB-231 cells. The number of TUNEL-positive cells increased significantly in Fe 3+ -R848, Fe 3+ -BMS-1, and FBR-NDs-treated cells, with FBR-NDs showing the most prominent effect

Both ratios were significantly reduced after treatment, with the most significant decrease observed in the FBR-NDs-treated group. c , d , ROS C, and lipid peroxidation D, levels in BT549 and MDA-MB-231 cells treated with Fe 3+ -R848, Fe 3+ -BMS-1, or FBR-NDs. Both ROS and lipid peroxidation levels were significantly elevated, particularly in FBR-NDs-treated cells. e TEM analysis of mitochondrial morphology in BT549 and MDA-MB-231 cells after treatment. Mitochondria exhibited swelling, blurred inner membrane structure, increased membrane folding, and ruptured outer membranes. Vesicular structures were also observed in the membrane and endoplasmic reticulum, indicative of ferroptosis. f Expression levels of ferroptosis-related markers GPX4, TLR4, ACXL4, and FSP1 in treated BT549 and MDA-MB-231 cells. FBR-NDs treatment significantly decreased GPX4 and FSP1 expression while increasing TLR4 and ACXL4 expression, suggesting the promotion of ferroptosis

Figure Lengend Snippet: FBR-NDs inhibit tumor growth in vivo. a schematic illustration of the treatment schedule. Treatments were administered via tail vein injection at a dose equivalent to 5 mg/kg Fe every 3 days starting when tumor volumes reached ~ 100 mm³. b Tumor volume, c tumor weight, and growth curves d , in C57BL/6 mice bearing 4T1 tumors. FBR-NDs treatment resulted in a significantly lower tumor growth rate compared to PBS, R848, BMS-1, and R848 + BMS-1 treatments. Fe 3+ -R848 and Fe 3+ -BMS-1 also showed reduced tumor growth, but FBR-NDs were the most effective. e - f , Immunohistochemical staining of Ki67 ( e ), and Cleaved-Caspase-3 ( f ), in tumor tissues. FBR-NDs-treated tumors showed significantly reduced Ki67-positive cells and increased Cleaved-Caspase-3 positivity, indicating inhibited proliferation and enhanced apoptosis. g 4-HNE staining of tumor tissues to detect lipid peroxidation. The strongest 4-HNE staining was observed in tumors treated with FBR-NDs, indicating the highest induction of ferroptosis. h , i Immunohistochemical staining for GPX4 ( h ), and TLR4 ( i ), in tumor tissues. Treatment with FBR-NDs significantly reduced GPX4 expression and increased TLR4 expression, confirming ferroptosis induction. j Kaplan-Meier survival curves of 4T1 tumor-bearing mice in different treatment groups.
