Ferroptosis/apoptosis inducer-4 is a pyridine-hydrazone-derived Cu (II) complex and a synergistic inducer of ferroptosis and apoptosis. Ferroptosis/apoptosis inducer-4 exerts anti-tumor proliferation and anti-metastasis effects with extremely low systemic toxicity. Ferroptosis/apoptosis inducer-4 disrupts cellular redox homeostasis by depleting glutathione and generating hydroxyl radicals through the Cu2+/Cu+ redox cycle. Ferroptosis/apoptosis inducer-4 also triggers mitochondrial dysfunction and endoplasmic reticulum stress, which in turn lead to Ca2+ release, mitochondrial Ca2+ overload, and the formation of a ROS-Ca2+ self-amplifying feedback loop. Ferroptosis/apoptosis inducer-4 can be used in studies related to cervical cancer[1].
