Keloids are a common skin disorder characterized by excessive fibrous tissue proliferation, which can significantly impact patients' health. Ferroptosis, form of regulated cell death, plays crucial role in the development fibrosis; however, its mechanisms keloid formation remains poorly understood. This study aimed to identify key genes associated with ferroptosis formation. Data from NCBI GEO database, including GSE145725, GSE7890, and GSE44270, were analyzed, comprising total 24 17 normal samples. Additionally, single-cell data GSE181316, included 8 samples complete expression profiles, also evaluated. Differentially expressed identified, ferroptosis-related extracted GeneCards database. LASSO regression was used select keloids. Validation performed using qRT-PCR Western blot (WB) analysis on five biopsies. A 471 differentially identified GSE145725 dataset, 225 upregulated 246 downregulated genes. Five selected through gene intersection regression. Two these upregulated, while three tissue. Further GSEA pathway enrichment, GSVA set variation, immune infiltration analysis, sequencing revealed that primarily involved fibrotic process.

ABSTRACT Pulmonary fibrosis (PF) is a chronic and progressive interstitial lung disease characterised by excessive deposition of extracellular matrix (ECM), resulting in high mortality rates. In this study, we provide evidence that ADAM17/PTGS2 plays crucial role inducing ferroptosis fibroblasts, promoting PF. Initially, an assessment was made ADAM17 protein levels patients diagnosed with connective tissue diseases–interstitial diseases (CTD‐ILD), using ELISA assays. Confirmation the relationship between achieved stimulating cells PMA or TAPI‐1 (the inhibitor), conjunction fibrosis‐inducing factor, TGFβ1. To further explore major downstream proteins contributing to altered PF, employed mRNA transcriptomics. investigate fibrosis, western blot assays, immunofluorescence transmission electron microscopy (TEM). Furthermore, effects ADAM17/PTGS2/ferroptosis pathway PF were verified Adeno‐associated virus (AAV)‐mediated gene knockdown mice. CTD‐ILD patients, expression significantly elevated. Upon stimulation, fibroblasts exhibited increased fibrosis‐related proteins, combined stimulation TGFβ1 synergistically promoted cellular fibrosis. Conversely, alleviated fibrotic induced Transcriptomic analysis fibroblast specimens overexpressing revealed elevated PTGS2 levels. Knockdown inhibition assays demonstrated regulates via PTGS2, ultimately deficiency bleomycin‐induced inflammation These findings first novel mechanism for regulating PF; it provides new theoretical basis exploring treatment
