WMK-1
WMK-1 is a 1,2,4,5-tetraoxane derivative and ferroptosis inducer, with significantly higher cytotoxicity against cancer cells than non-cancerous cells. WMK-1 triggers ferroptosis in cancer cells and cancer stem cells. WMK-1 can be used for the research of cancer.

Biological Activity
WMK-1 (compound 48) (48 h) potently inhibits viability of MDA-MB-231, Hela, T47D, Jurkat, HCT116, and HL-60 cancer cells with IC50 values ranging from 1.0 μM to 6.3 μM[1].
WMK-1 (48 h) potently inhibits viability of HeyA8 ovarian cancer cells (IC50 = 2.3 μM) and HeyA8sp ovarian cancer stem cell spheres (IC50 = 1.2 μM)[1].
WMK-1 (24 h) induces ferroptosis in HeyA8 ovarian cancer cells, HeyA8 ovarian cancer stem cells, and HeyA8 ovarian cancer stem cell spheres[1].
WMK-1 (5 μM; 6 h) increases lipid reactive oxygen species levels in MDA-MB-231 triple negative breast cancer cells[1].
WMK-1 (5 μM) induced cell death in MDA-MB-231 triple-negative breast cancer cells at indicated concentrations within 24 h, and this effect was significantly reversed by 30 μM liproxstatin-1 (HY-12726) pretreatment[1].
