Abstract excerpt
PURPOSE: Ferroptosis is a form of cell death driven by iron-dependent lipid peroxidation. Intriguingly, KRAS-mutant cancers are particularly vulnerable to ferroptosis. Osthole is a natural coumarin extracted from Cnidium spp. and other Apiaceous plants. In the present study, we explored the antitumor potential of osthole in KRAS-mutant colorectal cancer (CRC) cells. METHODS: Cell viability assay, EdU...
