Effects of ferroptosis inducer on expression levels of 11-core prognostic genes in breast cancer cell lines in vitro. (A,B) The cell viability of MCF-7 (A) and MDA-MB-231 (B) treated by erastin was tested by CCK8 assay. (C,D) Lipid peroxidation of MCF-7 (C) and MDA-MB-231 (D) treated by erastin was assessed by flow cytometry after C11-BODIPY staining. (E,F) The expression changes of 11-core prognostic genes in MCF-7 (E) and MDA-MB-231 (F) after being treated with 20 μM erastin were detected by real time-PCR. (G) The expression changes of G6PD, PIK3CA, and BRD4 genes in MDA-MB-231 and MCF-7 after being treated with erastin for 48 h were detected by western blot (G6PD-H means high exposure, G6PD-L means short exposure). * P < 0.05; **P < 0.01; ***P < 0.001.
