Résumé

Artemisinin is an anti-malarial drug that has shown anticancer properties. Recently, ferroptosis was reported to be induced by dihydroartemisinin (DHA) and linked to iron increase. In the current study, we determined the effect of DHA in leukemic cell lines on ferroptosis induction and iron metabolism and the cytoprotective effect triggered in leukemic cells. We found that treatment of DHA induces early ferroptosis by promoting ferritinophagy and subsequent iron increase. Furthermore, our study demonstrated that DHA activated zinc metabolism signaling, especially the upregulation of metallothionein (MT). Supportingly, we showed that inhibition MT2A and MT1M isoforms enhanced DHA-induced ferroptosis. Finally, we demonstrated that DHA-induced ferroptosis alters glutathione pool, which is highly dependent on MTs-driven antioxidant response. Taken together, our study indicated that DHA activates ferritinophagy and subsequent ferroptosis in AML and that MTs are involved in glutathione regenerating and antioxidant response.
