Ferroptosis: machinery and regulation

ABSTRACT Ferroptosis is an iron-dependent, non-apoptotic form of regulated cell death caused by lipid peroxidation, which is controlled by integrated oxidation and antioxidant systems. The iron-containing enzyme lipoxygenase is the main promoter of ferroptosis by producing lipid hydroperoxides, and its function relies on the activation of ACSL4-dependent lipid biosynthesis. In contrast, the selenium-containing enzyme GPX4 is currently recognized as a central repressor of ferroptosis, and its activity depends on glutathione produced from the activation of the cystine-glutamate antiporter SLC7A11. Many metabolic (especially involving iron, lipids, and amino acids) and degradation pathways (macroautophagy/autophagy and the ubiquitin-proteasome system) orchestrate the complex ferroptotic response through direct or indirect regulation of iron accumulation or lipid peroxidation. Although the detailed mechanism of membrane injury during ferroptosis remains a mystery, ESCRT III-mediated plasma membrane repair can make cells resistant to ferroptosis. Here, we review the recent rapid progress in understanding the molecular mechanisms of ferroptosis and focus on the epigenetic, transcriptional, and posttranslational regulation of this process.
