Fig. 6: Overexpression of FGFR2 inhibits DDP-induced ferroptosis in NPC cells.

NPC/HK1 and C666-1 cells were divided into four groups: control, DDP (5 μg/mL), DDP (5 μg/mL) + Vector and DDP (5 μg/mL) + FGFR2. A The protein levels of FGFR2, Keap1, Nrf2 and HO-1 in NPC cells were detected by western blot. B Cell viability was monitored by CCK-8 assay. C–E The levels of MDA (C), Fe2+ (D) and GSH (E) in NPC cells were measured using commercial kits. F The protein levels of GPX4 and SLC7A11 were detected by western blot. G NPC cells were stained with BODIPY C11 and lipid peroxidation was assessed by flow cytometry. *P < 0.05, **P < 0.01, and ***P < 0.001.
