Humans are inevitably exposed to ethyl carbamate (EC) via consumption of fermented food and beverages. EC, known as an environmental toxin, can cause oxidative stress-mediated severe toxicity, but the underlying mechanisms remain unveiled. Ferroptosis is a newly identified ROS-mediated non-apoptotic cell death characterized by iron accumulation excessive lipid oxidation. In this study, we first found that EC triggered ferroptosis in liver cells detection decreased viability, GSH, GPX4 Ferritin levels, well increased MDA contents. inhibitor ferrostatin-1 (Fer-1) pretreatment rescued ferroptotic damage, indicating was critical for EC-caused death. Furthermore, GSH synthesis precursor N-acetylcysteine displayed significant anti-ferroptotic properties suggested depletion might be main under exposure. EC-triggered mainly depended on suppressed inhibition SLC7A11 GCLC expressions. Notably, blocked Nrf2 activation repression phosphorylation modification nuclear translocation, which further resulted occurrence. We also observed EC-induced dysfunction inflammation, accompanied with stress, downregulated signaling Balb/c mice, could effectively reversed Fer-1 tBHQ pretreatment. Together, our study indicated new mechanism attributed inactivation depletion.

Abstract Ferroptosis, a unique modality of cell death with mechanistic and morphological differences from other modes, plays pivotal role in regulating tumorigenesis offers new opportunity for modulating anticancer drug resistance. Aberrant epigenetic modifications posttranslational (PTMs) promote resistance, cancer progression, metastasis. Accumulating studies indicate that can transcriptionally translationally determine vulnerability to ferroptosis functions as driver nervous system diseases (NSDs), cardiovascular (CVDs), liver diseases, lung kidney diseases. In this review, we first summarize the core molecular mechanisms ferroptosis. Then, roles processes, including histone PTMs, DNA methylation, noncoding RNA regulation such phosphorylation, ubiquitination, SUMOylation, acetylation, ADP-ribosylation, are concisely discussed. The PTMs genesis cancers, NSD, CVDs, well application PTM modulators therapy these then discussed detail.

Neuronal loss is one of the striking causes various central nervous system (CNS) disorders, including major neurodegenerative diseases, such as Alzheimer’s disease (AD), Parkinson’s (PD), Huntington’s (HD), and Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS). Although these diseases have different features clinical manifestations, they share some common mechanisms pathology. Progressive regional neurons in patients responsible for motor, memory, cognitive dysfunctions, leading to disabilities death. cell death linked pathways conditions.

Abstract Ferroptosis is a form of lipid peroxidation-mediated cell death and damage triggered by excess iron insufficiency in the glutathione antioxidant pathway. Oxidative stress thought to play crucial role progressive forms multiple sclerosis (MS) which deposition occurs. In this study we assessed if ferroptosis plays chronic experimental autoimmune encephalomyelitis (CH-EAE), mouse model used MS. Changes were detected mRNA levels several genes CH-EAE but not relapsing–remitting EAE. At protein level, expression importers increased earlier stages (onset peak). While hemoxygenase-1, mobilizes from heme, likely phagocytosed material, macrophages at peak stages. Excess cells stored safely ferritin, increases with disease progression. Harmful, redox active released ferritin when shuttled autophagosomes ‘nuclear receptor coactivator 4’ (NCOA4). NCOA4 accompanied increase ferrous iron. These changes occur parallel reduction pathway (system xCT, peroxidase 4 glutathione), peroxidation. Mice treated inhibitor for 2 weeks starting paralysis, show significant improvements function pathology. Autopsy samples tissue sections secondary MS (SPMS) showed oligodendrocytes along rim mixed active/inactive lesions, where ferritin+ containing are located. Cells expressing express less suggesting degradation release iron, as indicated data suggest that contribute pathogenesis SPMS.
