Loss of peroxiredoxin 6 alters lipid composition and distribution resulting in increased sensitivity to ferroptosis.

ABSTRACT: Peroxiredoxin 6 (PRDX6) is a multifunctional enzyme involved in phospholipid peroxide repair and metabolism. In this study we investigated the global lipid composition of a human hepatocarcinoma cell line SNU475 lacking PRDX6 and lipid related cellular processes. There was a general decrease in multiple lipids species upon loss of PRDX6, in particular sphingomyelins and acylcarnitines, consistent with previously observed alterations in cell signaling pathways and mitochondrial dysfunction. Deprivation of docosahexaenoic acid and related species was also evident. However, a few striking exceptions are worth highlighting: (1) Three specific arachidonic acid (AA) containing phophatidylcholines (PC) increased significantly. The increase of sn1-stearic/sn2-PUFA containing PC and sn2-AA containi
