Serine/arginine-rich splicing factor 1 (SRSF1) is a pre-mRNA-splicing factor functioning as an oncogene in multiple cancers. However, the biological roles of SRSF1 in endometrial cancer (EC) have not been explored. Here we demonstrated its pivotal function and the regulatory mechanism in regulating ferroptosis and glycolysis in EC. Results showed that SRSF1 inhibited ferroptosis in EC cells, indicated by decreased cell death rate, lipid peroxidation and Fe
