Humans are inevitably exposed to ethyl carbamate (EC) via consumption of fermented food and beverages. EC, known as an environmental toxin, can cause oxidative stress-mediated severe toxicity, but the underlying mechanisms remain unveiled. Ferroptosis is a newly identified ROS-mediated non-apoptotic cell death characterized by iron accumulation and excessive lipid oxidation. In this study, we first found that EC triggered ferroptosis in liver cells by detection of decreased cell viability, GSH, GPX4 and Ferritin levels, as well as increased iron and MDA contents. Ferroptosis inhibitor ferrostatin-1 (Fer-1) pretreatment rescued ferroptotic damage, indicating that ferroptosis was critical for EC-caused cell death. Furthermore, GSH synthesis precursor N-acetylcysteine displayed significant anti-ferroptotic properties and we suggested that GSH depletion might be the main cause of ferroptosis under EC exposure. EC-triggered GSH depletion mainly depended on suppressed GSH synthesis via inhibition of SLC7A11 and GCLC expressions. Notably, EC blocked Nrf2 activation by repression of phosphorylation modification and nuclear translocation, which further resulted in ferroptosis occurrence. We also observed EC-induced liver dysfunction and inflammation, accompanied with oxidative stress, ferroptosis and downregulated Nrf2 signaling in Balb/c mice, which could be effectively reversed by Fer-1 and tBHQ pretreatment. Together, our study indicated that ferroptosis is a new mechanism for EC-caused toxicity, which was attributed to Nrf2 inactivation and GSH depletion. Ethyl carbamate (EC) caused ferroptosis in L02 cells and liver tissues. GSH depletion was critical for EC-induced ferroptotic cell death. EC exposure blocked GSH synthesis-related pathways. Inactivation of Nrf2 signaling was involved in EC-triggered ferroptosis.
