Ferroptosis in human adrenocortical cells and aldosterone-producing adenomas

Pang Yingxian , Tetti Martina , Gong Siyuan , Reincke Martin , Ann Williams Tracy

Background: The role of ferroptosis – a regulated form of cell death – in the pathophysiology of aldosterone-producing adenomas (APA) is unclear.Objective: To identify mechanisms of ferroptosis in human adrenal cells and translate these findings to APA pathophysiology.Methods: Cell death detection, lipid ROS generation and mRNA sequencing were performed on HAC15 cells treated with the specific ferroptosis inducer RSL3 (1,...
