In addition, the administration of the inhibitor Ferrostatin-1 into Echinococcus granulosus-infected rats was able to decrease PSC-increased tissue fibrosis, cyst volume, inflammation, Fe2+, and lipid peroxide, as well as ferroptosis-related ROS, GSH, NOX1, SOD, TFRC, GPX4, FTH1, SLC3A2, and SLC7A11 in the liver. Here, NOX1 is linked to cyst.
