Extended Data Fig. 6. Fenton-mediated ROS feedback loop is critical for ferroptosis occurrence and propagation.

Extended Data Fig. 6

a, Time-lapse image array of cellular labile iron in pseudocolor (magenta) and cell death (cyan) propagation in erastin-treated cells. Cellular labile iron was monitored using an iron dye (FeRhoNox-1). b, Kymograph for cellular labile iron propagation from the image sequence shown in (a). The slopes of the yellow and white lines represent the speed of labile iron at the wave fronts and cell death propagation, respectively. c, d, Enhancing Fenton-mediated ROS feedback loop induces wave propagation in cells gaining ferroptosis resistance at high confluency. Time-lapse images of A549 (c) and U-2 OS (d) cells at the indicated time points after erastin treatment (10 μM) with or without ferric citrate (FC, 125 μM). Cell death is indicated by increased nuclear dye fluorescence signal. The white outlines represent the boundaries of cell death areas. Experiments were independently repeated three times with similar results. Scale bar, 300 μm (c, d).
