Introduction: Low-grade gliomas (LGG) represent a heterogeneous and complex group of brain tumors. Despite significant progress in understanding and managing these tumors, there are still many challenges that need to be addressed. Glycosylation, a common post-translational modification of proteins, plays a significant role in tumor transformation.

Ferroptosis, a newly described form of regulated cell death, is emerging as a potential therapeutic target in glioma. Ferroptosis is characterized by the accumulation of lipid peroxides due to a loss of intracellular antioxidant systems represented by the depletion of glutathione and decreased activity of glutathione peroxidase 4 (GPX4).
