Abstract
Ferroptosis is an innovative concept defined as a distinct programmed cell death mode regulated by iron-dependent lipid peroxidation accumulation. This process is governed by numerous energy metabolites such as fatty acids, amino acids and glucose, as well as iron homeostasis. In recent years, increasing studies have been devoted to the crucial effects of ferroptosis in immune cells during the pathogenesis of diseases such as infections, tumours and autoimmune disorders. This review summarises the latest advancements in T-cell ferroptosis, addresses the key components and mechanism of ferroptosis in T cells during inflammatory conditions and tumour progression, and highlights the potential target for treating related diseases.
Key points
Ferroptosis-related mechanisms significantly affect the biology of CD4+ T-cell subsets and are further involved in inflammatory diseases.
Crosstalk between CD8+ T cells and tumour cells induces ferroptosis in the tumour microenvironment.
Glutathione peroxidase 4 loss promotes regulatory T-cell ferroptosis to enhance anti-tumour immunity.
期刊介绍:
Clinical and Translational Medicine (CTM) is an international, peer-reviewed, open-access journal dedicated to accelerating the translation of preclinical research into clinical applications and fostering communication between basic and clinical scientists. It highlights the clinical potential and application of various fields including biotechnologies, biomaterials, bioengineering, biomarkers, molecular medicine, omics science, bioinformatics, immunology, molecular imaging, drug discovery, regulation, and health policy. With a focus on the bench-to-bedside approach, CTM prioritizes studies and clinical observations that generate hypotheses relevant to patients and diseases, guiding investigations in cellular and molecular medicine. The journal encourages submissions from clinicians, researchers, policymakers, and industry professionals.
