In recent years, the role of ferroptosis in pulmonary fibrosis has garnered increasing interest as a potential therapeutic target. Pulmonary is pathological process characterized by accumulation extracellular matrix affected lung tissues, and currently, there are no effective therapies for preventing or reversing fibrotic lesions. Ferroptosis form programmed cell death that regulated network enzymes signaling pathways. Dysregulation been implicated several diseases, including fibrosis. The lipid peroxides course causes damage to membranes other cellular components, leading ultimately death. Relevant targets intervention include key enzymes, such glutathione peroxidase 4, transcription factors like nuclear factor erythroid 2-related 2, iron chelation.

Abstract Environmental pollution represents a significant public health concern, with the potential risks associated environmental pollutants receiving considerable attention over an extended period. In recent years, substantial body of research has been dedicated to this topic. Since discovery ferroptosis, iron-dependent programmed cell death typically characterized by lipid peroxidation, in 2012, there have advances study its role and mechanism various diseases. A growing number studies also demonstrated involvement ferroptosis damage caused organism pollutants, molecular mechanisms involved partially elucidated. The targeting be effective means ameliorating PM2.5, organic inorganic ionizing radiation. This review begins providing summary most important ferroptosis. It then proceeds offer critical analysis effects induced pollutants. Furthermore, as is case all rapidly evolving areas, are numerous unanswered questions challenges pertaining pollutant-induced which we discuss attempt provide some directions clues for future field.

Ferroptosis is a distinct form of iron-dependent programmed cell death characterized primarily by intracellular iron accumulation and lipid peroxidation. Multiple cellular processes, including amino acid metabolism, various signaling pathways, autophagy, have been demonstrated to influence the induction progression ferroptosis. Recent investigations elucidated that ferroptosis plays crucial role in pathogenesis pulmonary disorders, lung injury, chronic obstructive disease, fibrosis, asthma. increasingly recognized as promising novel strategy for cancer treatment. Various immune cells within tumor microenvironment, CD8+ T cells, macrophages, regulatory natural killer dendritic shown induce modulate process through regulation metabolism pathways. Conversely, can reciprocally alter metabolic environment, leading activation or inhibition functions, thereby modulating responses. This paper reviews molecular mechanism describes discusses connection between microenvironment diseases, development prospect their interaction treatment diseases.

Abstract In chronic kidney disease (CKD), renal fibrosis is an unavoidable result of various manifestations. However, its pathogenesis not yet fully understood. Here, we revealed the novel role Homeobox D10 (HOXD10) in CKD-related fibrosis. HOXD10 expression was downregulated vitro and vivo models. UUO model mice were administered adeno-associated virus (AAV) containing HOXD10, overexpression plasmids introduced into human proximal tubular epithelial cells induced by TGF-β1. The levels iron, reactive oxygen species (ROS), lipid ROS, oxidized glutathione/total glutathione (GSSG/GSH) ratio, malonaldehyde (MDA), superoxide dismutase (SOD) determined using respective assay kits. Treatment with AAV–HOXD10 significantly attenuated dysfunction inhibiting NOX4 transcription, ferroptosis pathway activation, oxidative stress. High activation profibrotic gene TGF-β1/erastin (a agonist) abrogated HK-2 cells. Moreover, bisulfite sequencing PCR that showed a hypermethylated level TGF-β1-treated binding to promoter confirmed chromatin immunoprecipitation (ChIP) analysis dual-luciferase reporter assays. Targeting may represent innovative therapeutic strategy for treatment CKD.

Abstract Pulmonary fibrosis (PF) is a chronic interstitial lung disorder characterized by abnormal myofibroblast activation, accumulation of extracellular matrix (ECM), and thickening fibrotic alveolar walls, resulting in deteriorated function. PF initiated dysregulated wound healing processes triggered factors such as excessive inflammation, oxidative stress, coronavirus disease (COVID-19). Despite advancements understanding the disease’s pathogenesis, effective preventive therapeutic interventions are currently lacking. Ferroptosis, an iron-dependent regulated cell death (RCD) mechanism involving lipid peroxidation glutathione (GSH) depletion, exhibits unique features distinct from other RCD forms (e.g., apoptosis, necrosis, pyroptosis). Imbalance between reactive oxygen species (ROS) production detoxification leads to ferroptosis, causing cellular dysfunction through peroxidation, protein modifications, DNA damage. Emerging evidence points crucial role ferroptosis progression, driving macrophage polarization, fibroblast proliferation, ECM deposition, ultimately contributing tissue scarring. This review provides comprehensive overview latest findings on involvement signaling mechanisms emphasizing potential novel anti-fibrotic approaches targeting for management.

However, the impact of on cardiomyocyte aging remains unclear. In this study, we observed that extractable organic matter (EOM) from led to cellular senescence H9c2 cardiomyoblast cells, as characterized by an increase percentage β-galactosidase-positive elevated expression levels p16 p21, enhanced H3K9me3 foci. EOM also induced cell cycle arrest at G1/S stage, accompanied downregulation CDK4 Cyclin D1. Furthermore, significant elevation intracellular reactive oxygen species (ROS), mitochondrial ROS, DNA damage. Supplementation with antioxidant NAC effectively attenuated EOM-induced cardiac senescence. Our findings revealed activated aryl hydrocarbon receptor (AhR) signaling pathway, evidenced AhR translocation nucleus upregulation Cyp1a1 Cyp1b1.
