Abstract
Ferroptosis, iron-dependent regulated cell death, is induced by the polyunsaturated fatty acid peroxidation of membrane phospholipids and is controlled by glutathione peroxidase 4. In recent years, convincing evidence has emerged, demonstrating a close relationship between chemo-, radio-, immuno-, and targeted therapy resistance and ferroptosis resistance. In this review, we discuss the basic principles of ferroptosis in cancer. Considerable attention is paid to the formation of an immunosuppressive tumor microenvironment. The main focus is centered on the involvement of the excessive, chronic production of pro-inflammatory cytokines in ferroptosis resistance development in tumors.
期刊介绍:
Acta Naturae is an international journal on life sciences based in Moscow, Russia.
Our goal is to present scientific work and discovery in molecular biology, biochemistry, biomedical disciplines and biotechnology. These fields represent the most important priorities for the research and engineering development both in Russia and worldwide. Acta Naturae is also a periodical for those who are curious in various aspects of biotechnological business, innovations in pharmaceutical areas, intellectual property protection and social consequences of scientific progress. The journal publishes analytical industrial surveys focused on the development of different spheres of modern life science and technology.
Being a radically new and totally unique journal in Russia, Acta Naturae is useful to both representatives of fundamental research and experts in applied sciences.
