The aim of this study was to explore the mechanism of icaritin-induced ferroptosis in hepatoma HepG2 cells. By bioinformatics screening, the target of icariin's intervention in liver cancer ferroptosis was selected, the protein-protein interaction(PPI) network was constructed, the related pathways were focused, the binding ability of icariin and target protein was evaluated by molecular docking, and the impact on patients' survival prognosis was predicted and the clinical prediction model was built. CCK-8, EdU, and clonal formation assays were used to detect cell viability and cell proliferation; colorimetric method and BODIPY 581/591 C1 fluorescent probe were used to detect the levels of Fe~(2+), MDA and GSH in cells, and the ability of icariin to induce HCC cell ferroptosis was evaluated; RT-qPCR and Western blot detection were used to verify the mRNA and protein levels of GPX4, xCT, PPARG, and FABP4 to determine the expression changes of these ferroptosis-related genes in response to icariin.
