Metabolic consequences of erastin-induced ferroptosis in human ovarian cancer cells: an untargeted metabolomics study by Kaylie I. Kirkwood-Donelson, Alan K. Jarmusch, Carl D. Bortner, Bruce Alex Merrick, Birandra K. Sinha

“…Our study also found significant decreases in cellular taurine, a natural antioxidant in cells. Additionally, we found that ER treatment decreased cellular levels of NAD+/NADP+, carnitines and glutamine/glutamate in both cells, suggesting significant oxidative stress, decrease in energy production, and cellular and mitochondrial disfunctions, leading to cell death.ConclusionOur studies identified several potential biomarkers of ER-induced ferroptosis including OPH, taurine, NAD+, NADP+ and glutamate in ovarian cancer cells. …”

Mechanism of Hydraulic Fracturing Cutting Hard Basic Roof to Prevent Rockburst by Jianqiao Luo, Shaohong Yan, Tuo Yang, Haoqi Mu, Wensheng Wei, Yupeng Shen, Hongtao Mu

“…Tracing to the source, the reasons for large accumulation of elastic strain energy in coal and rock mass are the high stress of the roof layer that loads on the coal and rock masses around the mining space coupling effect with the natural horizontal tectonic stress. In this study, using the minimum energy theory and elasticity theory, the analytical formula for calculating elastic strain energy of the roof cantilever beam structure acting on the coal body load in front of the working face is deduced. …”
