Triptolide-induced cuproptosis is a novel antitumor strategy for the treatment of cervical cancer.

Background: Cuproptosis is a unique copper-dependent form of cell death that is highly correlated with the metabolic state of cells. Triptolide exerts pharmacological activity by altering the regulation of metal ions. Cuproptosis is poorly understood in cancer, so in this study, we explored whether triptolide could induce cuproptosis in cervical cancer cells.

Glycyrrhizin arginine salt protects against cisplation-induced acute liver injury by repressing BECN1-mediated ferroptosis.

The study aimed to investigate the protective effects and biological mechanisms of glycyrrhizin arginine salt (Gly-Arg) against cisplatin (Cis)-induced liver injury. Our data showed that Gly-Arg improved Cis-induced liver injury. Further study showed that BECN1 (beclin1) and LC3-II/LC3-I protein expression was significantly increased in primary hepatocytes and mouse liver tissues after Cis treatment, but Gly-Arg reduced the protein levels of BECN1 and LC3-II/LC3-I in primary hepatocytes and mouse liver tissues.

Tetrandrine Citrate Suppresses Breast Cancer Depletion of Glutathione Peroxidase 4 and Activation of Nuclear Receptor Coactivator 4-Mediated Ferritinophagy.

Tetrandrine citrate (TetC), a novel tetrandrine salt with high water solubility, demonstrates a potent antitumor activity in chronic myeloid leukemia. Studies have indicated an important role of ferroptosis in breast cancer (BC). However, whether TetC inhibits BC progression ferroptosis has never been explored.

Data on high performance supercapacitors based on mesoporous activated carbon materials with ultrahigh mesopore volume and effective specific surface area.

The data presented in this data article are related to the research article entitled "Mesoporous activated carbon materials with ultrahigh mesopore volume and effective specific surface area for high performance supercapacitors" (Lu et al., 2017) [1]. The detailed structure data of the prepared mesoporous activated carbon materials with ultrahigh mesopore volume and effective specific surface area and the electrochemical performance data of the corresponding supercapacitors are described.
