SLC7A11 and breast cancer: Firstly, data from in vitro experiments indicated that 4T-1, one of common mouse breast cancer cell lines, was a XK-81-susceptible cell line, and ferroptosis was the major death manner in response to XK-81 treatment, which was evidenced by increasing intracellular Fe2+ and ROS level with condensed mitochondrial membrane densities, as well as decreasing the protein expressions of SLC7A11 and GPX4.
