Abstract
Ferroptosis is a type of programmed cell death that differs from apoptosis, autophagy, and necrosis and is related to several physio-pathological processes, including tumorigenesis, neurodegeneration, senescence, blood diseases, kidney disorders, and ischemia-reperfusion injuries. Ferroptosis is linked to iron accumulation, eliciting dysfunction of antioxidant systems, which favor the production of lipid peroxides, cell membrane damage, and ultimately, cell death. Thus, signaling pathways evoking ferroptosis are strongly associated with those protecting cells against iron excess and/or lipid-derived ROS. Here, we discuss the interaction between the metabolic pathways of ferroptosis and antioxidant systems, with a particular focus on transcription factors implicated in the regulation of ferroptosis, either as triggers of lipid peroxidation or as ferroptosis antioxidant defense pathways.
