Isoform Comparison

Biological Activity

Description
Erastin is an inducer of ferroptosis, initiating cell death through mechanisms involving reactive oxygen species (ROS) and iron-dependent pathways. It targets and inhibits the voltage-dependent anion channels (VDAC2/VDAC3), which leads to an increase in oxidation and subsequently, a buildup of ROS within cells. Furthermore, Erastin interferes with the mitochondrial permeability transition pore (mPTP), displaying anti-tumor properties[1].[2].[3].
