Solasonine is a naturally occurring steroidal glycoalkaloid isolated from *Solanum melongena* (eggplant), known for its anti-infective, anticancer, and neurogenesis-promoting properties. It acts as a ferroptosis inducer by disrupting the glutathione redox system through inhibition of glutathione peroxidase 4 (GPX4). By promoting ferroptotic cell death in hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) cells, Solasonine serves as a valuable compound for investigating ferroptosis mechanisms and developing novel anticancer strategies.
