Abstract: | Ferroptosis induction has been recognized as a novel cancer therapeutic strategy. To effectively apply ferroptosis-targeting cancer therapy to individual patients, a diagnostic indicator for selecting this therapeutic strategy from a number of molecular targeting drugs is needed. However, to date, methods that can predict the efficacy of ferroptosis-targeting treatment have not been established yet. In this study, we focused on the iron metabolic pathway to develop a nuclear imaging technique for diagnosing the susceptibility of cancer cells to ferroptosis. As a nuclear probe, human transferrin (Tf) was labeled with Gallium-68 (Ga-68) using 2-(p-isothiocyanatobenzyl)-1,4,7-triazacyclononane-1,4,7-triacetic acid (NOTA) as a chelator (Ga-68-NOTA-Tf). Western blot assay and clonogenic survival assay with human renal cancer cell lines A498 and 786-O revealed that the protein expression level of transferrin receptor1 (TfR1) and sensitivity to a ferroptosis inducer, erastin, were correlated. A cellular uptake assay with Ga-68-NOTA-Tf revealed that the cancer cells sensitive to erastin highly internalized the Ga-68-NOTA-Tf. Furthermore, treatment with the TfR1 inhibitor ferristatin II reduced the cellular uptake of Ga-68-NOTA-Tf, indicating that the intracellular uptake of the probe was mediated by TfR1. These results suggest that Ga-68-NOTA-Tf can be useful in predicting the sensitivity of cancer cells to ferroptosis inducers. |
