Fer-1 downregulates ferroptosis markers in MCT-induced PH rats. (A) Representative western blots showing ferroptosis-related proteins (NOX4, GPX4 and FTH1) in total lung homogenates from PH rats 4 weeks after MCT exposure. (BD) The quantification of protein expression is shown; GAPDH was used as a loading control (37 kDa). The groups of blots were cropped from the same gel. (E) Bar graph showing Fer-1-mediated downregulation of the level of Fe2+ in MCT-induced PH rats. The data are shown as the mean ± SD, #P > 0.05 versus the sham group, *P < 0.05 versus the sham group, **P < 0.05 versus the MCT group. n = 8–12/group.
