Zusammenfassung:Lethal lipid peroxidation caused by reactive oxygen species occurs in different types of programmed cell death, especially in ferroptosis. Ferroptosis inducers, which serve as small-molecule probes, can provide insight into the mechanism of ferroptosis and facilitate drug discovery. The classical ferroptosis inducers indirectly lead to lipid peroxidation; thus, it is difficult to explore lipid regulation during the ferroptotic process. In this study, we designed two quinazolinone-based lipophilic probes BODIQPy-TPA and QPy-TPA, which proved to directly induce lipid peroxidation by light irradiation in vitro. The probe BODIQPy-TPA, which was mainly distributed in the endoplasmic reticulum (ER), specifically triggered ferroptosis in B16 and HepG2 cells upon light irradiation. As a comparison, the probe QPy-TPA, which was mainly distributed in lipid droplets (LDs), induced cell death by a nonferroptotic pathway. Further lipidomic analysis revealed that these two probes caused different patterns of lipid regulation and lipid peroxidation, suggesting that ferroptosis might activate distinct lipid regulation.
