doi: 10.1016/j.mtbio.2024.101085
Figure Lengend Snippet: The mechanisms underlying occurrence of ferroptosis. (A) A schematic illustration of GSH-triggered and PTT-enhanced ferroptosis. (B) GSH contents normalized to the total protein concentration in MCF-7/ADR cells after different treatments ( n = 5). (C) Cellular protein expression of GPX-4 in MCF-7/ADR cells after treatments with I@P and I@P-ss-FRT (50 μg Fe/mL) with or without 808 nm laser exposure (1.25 W/cm 2 , 5 min) and (D) the relative level of GPX-4/β-actin ( n = 3). (E) CLSM images of MCF-7/ADR cells after incubation with I@P and I@P-ss-FRT showing intracellular Fe 2+ ions levels using fluorescent probe FerroOrange and (F) the quantification of fluorescence intensity inside cells; Scale bar = 50 μm ( n = 3). (G) CLSM images, (H) mean fluorescent intensity of the cells determined from the CLSM images, and (I) FCM analysis of ROS production in MCF-7/ADR cells after different treatments; Scale bar = 50 μm ( n = 3).
