Erastin, named for eradicator of RAS and small T (ST) antigen-expressing cells, is a ferroptosis inducer.{43340} It induces ferroptotic cell death in vitro, an effect that can be blocked by the ferroptosis inhibitors ciclopirox olamine, Trolox (Item No. 10011659), ferrostatin-1 (Item No. 17729), U-0126 (Item No. 70970), cycloheximide (Item No. 14126), and β-mercaptoethanol. Erastin (5 µM) inhibits cystine uptake by the system xc- cystine-glutamate transporter in HT-1080 fibrosarcoma and Calu-1 lung carcinoma cells and inhibits glutamate release in an enzyme-coupled fluorescence assay (EC50 = 1.2 µM). It also selectively induces cell death in cells expressing the SV40 small T oncoprotein and oncogenic Ras (IC50s = 1.25-5 µg/ml).{28833}

    The PtdIn phosphates play an important role in the generation and transduction of intracellular signals.{8344,4096,14518} PtdIns-(3,4,5)-P3-biotin is an affinity probe which allows the PIP3 to be detected through an interaction with the biotin ligand. This design allows PtdIns-(3,4,5)-P3-biotin to serve as a general probe for any protein with a high affinity binding interaction with inositol-(3,4,5)-triphosphate phospholipids, such as phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase, PTEN, or PH-domain-containing proteins.
