Ferroptosis is a distinct form of regulated cell death characterized by iron-dependent lipid peroxidation, playing critical role in various diseases, including cancer, neurodegeneration, and tissue damage. This study reviews the intricate relationship between ferroptosis Janus kinase/signal transducer activator transcription (JAK/STAT) signaling pathway, highlighting its regulatory functions across multiple biological processes. Dysregulation JAK/STAT pathway implicated promoting or inhibiting ferroptosis, depending on context. JAK2 promotes activating STAT proteins, modulating expression key regulators like SLC7A11 GPX4, influencing iron homeostasis through pathways such as ferritinophagy hepcidin regulation. STAT1 activation primarily enhances suppression cystine-glutamate antiporter (System Xc-), leading to glutathione depletion contributing conditions Sjogren's syndrome age-related macular degeneration. In contrast, STAT3 plays protective upregulating which inhibits survival, particularly cancers hepatocellular carcinoma, prostate renal carcinoma. also discusses STAT6's involvement diseases asthma lung injury regulating antioxidant defenses. Furthermore, review explores potential therapeutic strategies targeting manipulate for disease treatment. cancer therapy, this can enhance effectiveness inducers, offering promising avenues overcome drug resistance. Additionally, interplay immune responses, oxidative stress, metabolism underscores significance progression intervention. By exploring these mechanisms, provides insights into development novel treatments modulation, with implications inflammatory neurodegenerative conditions.

Chronic viral infections like HIV, HBV, and HCV establish persistent interactions with the host immune system, resulting in evasion long-term dysfunction. These viruses use a range of strategies to limit defenses, such as downregulating MHC class I, disrupting interferon signaling, altering apoptosis pathways, suppressing cytotoxic T-cell activity. Key proteins, including HIV Nef, HBV X protein, NS5A, interfere antigen presentation JAK/STAT thereby reducing antiviral responses. induce exhaustion due exposure, which leads expression inhibitory receptors PD-1 CTLA-4 on T cells. Viral epigenetic changes, N6-methyladenosine modifications histone deacetylation, enhance by modulating gene infected Viruses further manipulate cytokine networks promoting an immunosuppressive environment through IL-10 TGF-β secretion, suppress inflammatory responses inhibit activation. This review examines molecular/cellular mechanisms that enable chronic escape immunity, focusing antigenic variation, disruption, control apoptotic pathways. It also addresses how genetic factors, HLA polymorphisms, influence disease progression. Lastly, we discuss host-targeted therapies, checkpoint inhibitors, treatments, CRISPR.
