Iron homeostasisis is integral to normal physiological and biochemical processes of lungs. The maintenance iron homeostasis involves the process intake, storage output, dependening on iron-regulated protein/iron response element system operate tightly metabolism-related genes, including TFR1, DMT1, Fth, FPN. Dysregulation can lead overload, which increases virulence microbial colonisers occurrence oxidative stress, causing alveolar epithelial cells undergo necrosis apoptosis, form extracellular matrix. Accumulated drive iron-dependent ferroptosis exacerbated pulmonary fibrosis.

Pulmonary fibrosis is a chronic and progressive lung disease characterized by the accumulation of scar tissue in lungs, which leads to impaired function reduced quality life. The prognosis for idiopathic pulmonary (IPF), most common form fibrosis, generally poor. median survival patients with IPF estimated be around 3–5 years from time diagnosis. Currently, there are two approved drugs (Pirfenidone Nintedanib) treatment IPF. However, Pirfenidone Nintedanib not able reverse or cure fibrosis. There need new pharmacological interventions that can slow halt progression This review aims provide an updated overview current future drug summarize possible targets potential anti-pulmonary drugs, providing theoretical support further clinical combination therapy development drugs.

Polystyrene microplastics (PS-MPs) are new types of environmental pollutant that have garnered significant attention in recent years since they were found to cause damage the human respiratory system when inhaled. The pulmonary fibrosis is one serious consequences PS-MPs inhalation. However, impact and underlying mechanisms on not clear. In this study, we studied potential lung toxicity PS-MPs-developed by long-term intranasal inhalation PS-MPs. results showed after exposing PS-MPs, lungs model mouse had different levels fibrosis. Meanwhile, resulted a markedly decrease glutathione (GSH), an increase malondialdehyde (MDA), iron overload tissue mice alveolar epithelial cells (AECs). These findings suggested occurrence PS-MP-induced ferroptosis. Inhibitor ferroptosis (Fer-1) alleviated PS-MPs-induced Mechanically, triggered cell promoted development via activating cGAS/STING signaling pathway. Inhibition with G150/H151 attenuated exposure.

Hand osteoarthritis is a common heterogeneous joint disorder with unclear molecular mechanisms and no disease-modifying drugs. In this study, we performed single-cell RNA sequencing analysis to compare the cellular composition subpopulation-specific gene expression between cartilage macroscopically confirmed (n = 5) without from interphalangeal joints of five donors. Of 105 142 cells, identified 13 subpopulations, including novel subpopulation inflammation-modulating potential annotated as inflammatory chondrocytes. Fibrocartilage chondrocytes exhibited extensive alteration patterns in osteoarthritic compared nonosteoarthritic cartilage. Both fibrocartilage showed trend toward increased numbers these two subpopulations cartilage, ferroptosis pathway was enriched, iron overload-related genes, e.g., FTH1, elevated. To verify findings, conducted Mendelian randomization study using UK Biobank population-based cross-sectional data collected Xiangya Osteoarthritis Study. Genetic predisposition higher FTH1 mRNA significantly risk hand (odds ratio 1.07, 95% confidence interval: 1.02-1.11) among participants 332 668) Biobank.

Background. Primary graft dysfunction, which is directly related to cold ischemia–reperfusion (CI/R) injury, a major obstacle in lung transplantation (LTx). Ferroptosis, novel mode of cell death elicited by iron-dependent lipid peroxidation, has been implicated ischemic events. This study aimed investigate the role ferroptosis LTx-CI/R injury and effectiveness liproxstatin-1 (Lip-1), inhibitor, alleviating injury. Methods. LTx-CI/R-induced signal pathway alterations, tissue death, inflammatory responses, ferroptotic features were examined human biopsies, bronchial epithelial (BEAS-2B) cells, mouse model (24-h CI/4-h R). The therapeutic efficacy Lip-1 was explored validated both vitro vivo. Results. In tissues, activated ferroptosis-related signaling pathway, increased iron content peroxidation accumulation, altered key protein (GPX4, COX2, Nrf2, SLC7A11) expression mitochondrial morphology. BEAS-2B hallmarks significantly evidenced at setting CI CI/R compared with control, effect adding only during much better than that reperfusion Cell Counting Kit-8. Furthermore, administration markedly relieved mice, as indicated significant improvement pathological changes, pulmonary function, inflammation, ferroptosis.
