AI Article Synopsis
Article Abstract
Ferroptosis is an iron-dependent cell death mechanism that may be important to prevent tumor formation and useful as a target for new cancer therapies. Transcriptional networks play a crucial role in shaping ferroptosis sensitivity by regulating the expression of transporters, metabolic enzymes, and other proteins. The Cap'n'collar (CNC) protein NFE2 like bZIP transcription factor 2 (NFE2L2, also known as NRF2) is a key regulator of ferroptosis in many cells and contexts. Emerging evidence indicates that the related CNC family members, BTB domain and CNC homolog 1 (BACH1) and NFE2 like bZIP transcription factor 1 (NFE2L1), also have roles in ferroptosis regulation. Here, we comprehensively review the role of CNC transcription factors in governing cellular sensitivity to ferroptosis. We describe how CNC family members regulate ferroptosis sensitivity through modulation of iron, lipid, and redox metabolism. We also use examples of ferroptosis regulation by CNC proteins to illustrate the flexible and highly context-dependent nature of the ferroptosis mechanism in different cells and conditions.

Aims: This study aimed to explore the role and underlying mechanisms of brain-derived exosomes in traumatic brain injury-induced acute lung injury (TBI-induced ALI), with a particular focus on the potential regulation of ferroptosis through miRNAs and Scd1.
Methods: To elucidate TBI-induced ALI, we used a TBI mouse model. Exosomes were isolated from the brains of these mice and characterized using TEM and NTA.

Diabetic kidney disease (DKD) is the leading cause of end-stage kidney disease, and podocyte injury is one of the major contributors to DKD. As a crucial transcriptional factor that regulates cellular response to oxidative stress, nuclear factor erythroid 2-related factor 2 (Nrf2) is an attractive therapeutic target for DKD. In this study, we evaluated the therapeutic potential of DDO-1039, a novel small-molecule Nrf2 activator developed with protein-protein interaction strategy, on podocyte injury in DKD.

Background: Esophageal cancer, particularly esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (ESCC), is a leading cause of cancer-related death and has a poor prognosis. Despite the advancements in multidisciplinary therapies, resistance to conventional treatments warrants the development of novel therapeutic strategies. Ferroptosis, a form of cell death dependent on intracellular iron, has emerged as a potential mechanism for targeting cancer cells resistant to apoptosis.

Introduction: Acute kidney injury (AKI) is linked to high rates of mortality and morbidity worldwide thereby posing a major public health problem. Evidences suggest that ferroptosis is the primary cause of AKI, while inhibition of monoamine oxidase A(MAOA) and 5-hydroxytryptamine were recognized as the defender of ferroptosis. Curcumin (Cur) is a natural polyphenol and the main bioactive compound of , which has been found nephroprotection in AKI.
