Lithocholic acid is a toxic secondary bile acid, causes intrahepatic cholestasis, has tumor-promoting activity, its toxic effect can be protected after it activates the vitamin D receptor, PXR and FXR. Lithocholic acid directly binds VDR (vitamin D receptor) with Ki of 29μM, activates VDR (vitamin D receptor) 30 μM, with much more sensitivity than the other nuclear receptors (eg. PXR, FXR), and its toxic effect is thus protected. Lithocholic acid has tumor-promoting activity, inhibits mammalian DNA Polymerase β with IC50 of 15 μM.

| Sulfasalazine
Sulfasalazine is a sulfonamide agent derived from Mesalazine. Sulfasalazine has xC-system inhibitory activity associated with iron death and is primarily used as an anti-inflammatory agent. Sulfasalazine can suppress NF-κB activity. Sulfasalazine is a type 1 ferroptosis inducer. |
| Deferiprone
Deferiprone is the only orally active iron-chelating agent with an affinity for ferric ion (iron III)，binds with ferric ions to form neutral 3:1 (deferiprone:iron) complexes that are stable over a wide range of pH values. |
| Erastin
Erastin is a ferroptosis activator by acting on mitochondrial VDAC, exhibiting selectivity for tumor cells bearing oncogenic RAS. *The compound is unstable in solutions, freshly prepared is recommended |
| Ferrostatin-1
Ferrostatin-1 (Fer-1) is a potent and selective inhibitor of ferroptosis with EC50 of 60 nM. |
| Idebenone
Idebenone, a mitochondrial protector, has neuroprotective properties and can be used to study Alzheimer's disease, Huntington's disease, and can cross the blood-brain barrier. Idebenone (oxidized form) inhibited arachidonic acid enzyme metabolism in astrocyte homogenates (IC50=16.65 μM). Idebenone is a coenzyme Q10 analogue and antioxidant that induces apoptosis (apoptotic) in human dopaminergic neuroblastoma SHSY-5Y cells. |
