ABSTRACT

Ferroptosis, an iron-dependent lipid peroxidation-driven programmed cell death, is closely related to cancer therapy. The development of druggable ferroptosis inducers and their rational application in cancer therapy are critical. Here, we identified Tubastatin A, an HDAC6 inhibitor as a novel druggable ferroptosis inducer through large-scale drug screening. Tubastatin A directly bonded to GPX4 and inhibited GPX4 enzymatic activity through biotin-linked Tubastatin A putdown and LC/MS analysis, which is independent of its inhibition of HDAC6. In addition, our results showed that radiotherapy not only activated Nrf2-mediated GPX4 transcription but also inhibited lysosome-mediated GPX4 degradation, subsequently inducing ferroptosis tolerance and radioresistance in cancer cells. Tubastatin A overcame ferroptosis resistance and radioresistance of cancer cells by inhibiting GPX4 enzymatic activity. More importantly, Tubastatin A has excellent bioavailability, as demonstrated by its ability to significantly promote radiotherapy-induced lipid peroxidation and tumour suppression in a mouse xenograft model. Our findings identify a novel druggable ferroptosis inducer, Tubastatin A, which enhances radiotherapy-mediated antitumor effects. This work provides a compelling rationale for the clinical evaluation of Tubastatin A, especially in combination with radiotherapy.
