Abstract
5-Fluorouracil (5-Fu) is a basic drug that is used to treat colorectal cancer. Patients who receive 5-Fu chemotherapy often experience side effects that affect the digestive system, such as intestinal injury and diarrhoea, which significantly affect patient compliance with anticancer treatment and quality of life. Therefore, identifying approaches to treat or prevent these side effects is urgent. Dasabuvir (DSV) is a hepatitis C virus inhibitor, but its impact on 5-Fu-induced intestinal injury remains unknown. Our study investigated the effects of DSV on 5-Fu-induced intestinal injury in HUVECs, HIECs and male BALB/c mice. We found that 5-Fu caused intestinal damage by inducing senescence, increasing inflammatory factor expression, and generating oxidative stress. Compared with 5-Fu treatment alone, DSV inhibited senescence by reducing senescence-β-galactosidase (SA-β-gal) activity, the senescence-associated secretory phenotype (SASP, including IL-1, IL-6, and TNF-α) and senescence marker expression levels (p16, p21, and p53). Moreover, the anti-senescence effect of DSV was achieved by inhibiting the mTOR signaling pathway. DSV increased antioxidant enzyme levels and alleviated intestinal tissue injury in mice. In addition, DSV suppressed the 5-Fu-induced increase the diarrhoea scores and ameliorated the weight loss, food intake and water intake of the mice. Overall, this study indicated that DSV could be used to treat chemotherapy-induced intestinal damage.

[PMID: 38547620 DOI: 10.1016/j.phymed.2024.155384] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/20/2023] [Revised: 01/05/2024] [Accepted: 01/23/2024] [Indexed: 05/01/2024]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Ferroptosis is a type of cell death caused by excessive iron-induced peroxidation. It has been found to be involved in a variety of diseases, and natural products can be used to target ferroptosis in treatments. Natural products are biologically active compounds extracted or synthesized from nature. It is an important resource for the discovery of skeletons with a high degree of structural diversity and a wide range of bioactivities, which can be developed directly or used as a starting point for the optimization of new drugs. PURPOSE In this review, we aim to discuss the interactions between natural products and ferroptosis in the treatment of human diseases. METHODS Literature was searched in Pubmed, Science Direct, and Web of Science databases for the 11-year period from 2012 to 2023 using the search terms "natural products", "ferroptosis", "human disease", "neurodegenerative disease", "cardiovascular disease", and "cancer". RESULTS In this research, the roles of natural products and ferroptosis were investigated. We suggest that natural products, such as terpenoids, flavonoids, polyphenols, alkaloids, and saponins, can be used in therapeutic applications for human diseases, as well as in ferroptosis. Additionally, the main mechanisms of ferroptosis were summarized and discussed. Furthermore, we propose that natural products can be utilized to enhance the sensitivity of cancer cells to ferroptosis, thus helping to overcome drug resistance and inhibit metastasis. Moreover, natural products have the potential to modulate the expression levels of ferroptosis-related factors. Finally, the future directions of this field were highlighted. CONCLUSION The potential of natural products which focus on ferroptosis to treat human illnesses, particularly cancer, is very encouraging for human wellbeing.

The Bach1/HO-1 pathway regulates oxidative stress and contributes to ferroptosis in doxorubicin-induced cardiomyopathy in H9c2 cells and mice. Arch Toxicol 2024; 98:1781-1794.

Abstract
Doxorubicin (DOX) is one of the most frequently used chemotherapeutic drugs belonging to the class of anthracyclines. However, the cardiotoxic effects of anthracyclines limit their clinical use. Recent studies have suggested that ferroptosis is the main underlying pathogenetic mechanism of DOX-induced cardiomyopathy (DIC). BTB-and-CNC homology 1 (Bach1) acts as a key role in the regulation of ferroptosis. However, the mechanistic role of Bach1 in DIC remains unclear. Therefore, this study aimed to investigate the underlying mechanistic role of Bach1 in DOX-induced cardiotoxicity using the DIC mice in vivo (DOX at cumulative dose of 20 mg/kg) and the DOX-treated H9c2 cardiomyocytes in vitro (1 μM). Our results show a marked upregulation in the expression of Bach1 in the cardiac tissues of the DOX-treated mice and the DOX-treated cardiomyocytes. However, Bach1-/- mice exhibited reduced lipid peroxidation and less severe cardiomyopathy after DOX treatment. Bach1 knockdown protected against DOX-induced ferroptosis in both in vivo and in vitro models. Ferrostatin-1 (Fer-1), a potent inhibitor of ferroptosis, significantly alleviated DOX-induced cardiac damage. However, the cardioprotective effects of Bach1 knockdown were reversed by pre-treatment with Zinc Protoporphyrin (ZnPP), a selective inhibitor of heme oxygenase-1(HO-1). Taken together, these findings demonstrated that Bach1 promoted oxidative stress and ferroptosis through suppressing the expression of HO-1. Therefore, Bach1 may present as a promising new therapeutic target for the prevention and early intervention of DOX-induced cardiotoxicity.

JOURNAL OF ETHNOPHARMACOLOGY 2024; 326:117941. [PMID: 38387684 DOI: 10.1016/j.jep.2024.117941] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/27/2023] [Revised: 02/04/2024] [Accepted: 02/18/2024] [Indexed: 02/24/2024]
Abstract
ETHNOPHARMACOLOGICAL RELEVANCE Iron is an essential micronutrient for maintaining physiological activities, especially for highly active cardiomyocytes. Inappropriate iron overload or deficiency has a significant impact on the incidence and severity of cardiovascular diseases (CVD). Iron overload exerts potentially deleterious effects on doxorubicin (DOX) cardiomyopathy, atherosclerosis, and myocardial ischemia-reperfusion injury (MI/RI) by participating in lipid peroxides production. Notably, iron overload-associated cell death has been defined as a possible mechanism for ferroptosis. At present, some traditional herbal medicines and extracts have been included in the study of regulating iron overload and the subsequent therapeutic effect on CVD. AIM OF THE STUDY To give an outline of iron metabolism and ferroptosis in cardiomyocytes and to focus on herbal medicines and extracts to prevent iron overload in CVD. MATERIALS AND METHODS Literature information was systematically collected from ScienceDirect, PubMed, Google Scholar, Web of Science, China National Knowledge Infrastructure, WanFang data, as well as classic books and clinical reports. RESULTS After understanding the mechanism of iron overload on CVD, this paper reviews the therapeutic function of various herbal medicines in eliminating iron overload in CVD. These include Chinese herbal compound prescriptions (Salvia miltiorrhiza injection, Gegen Qinlian decoction, Tongxinluo, Banxia-Houpu decoction), plant extracts, phenylpropanoids, flavonoids, terpenoids, and polyphenols. Among them, flavonoids are considered to be the most promising compounds because of their prominent iron chelation. Mechanically, these herbal medicines act on the Nrf2 signaling pathway, AMPK signaling pathway, and KAT5/GPX4 signaling pathway, thereby attenuating iron overload and lipid peroxidation in CVD. CONCLUSION Our review provides up-to-date information on herbal medicines that exert cardiovascular protective effects by modulating iron overload and ferroptosis. These herbal medicines hold promise as a template for preventing iron overload in CVD.

Ferroptosis, a Regulated Form of Cell Death, as a Target for the Development of Novel Drugs Preventing Ischemia/Reperfusion of Cardiac Injury, Cardiomyopathy and Stress-Induced Cardiac Injury. Int J Mol Sci 2024; 25:897. [PMID: 38255971 PMCID: PMC10815150 DOI: 10.3390/ijms25020897] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/10/2023] [Revised: 01/05/2024] [Accepted: 01/09/2024] [Indexed: 01/24/2024] Open
Abstract
The hospital mortality in patients with ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) is about 6% and has not decreased in recent years. The leading cause of death of these patients is ischemia/reperfusion (I/R) cardiac injury. It is quite obvious that there is an urgent need to create new drugs for the treatment of STEMI based on knowledge about the pathogenesis of I/R cardiac injury, in particular, based on knowledge about the molecular mechanism of ferroptosis. In this study, it was demonstrated that ferroptosis is involved in the development of I/R cardiac injury, antitumor drug-induced cardiomyopathy, diabetic cardiomyopathy, septic cardiomyopathy, and inflammation. There is indirect evidence that ferroptosis participates in stress-induced cardiac injury. The activation of AMPK, PKC, ERK1/2, PI3K, and Akt prevents myocardial ferroptosis. The inhibition of HO-1 alleviates myocardial ferroptosis. The roles of GSK-3β and NOS in the regulation of ferroptosis require further study. The stimulation of Nrf2, STAT3 prevents ferroptosis. The activation of TLR4 and NF-κB promotes ferroptosis of cardiomyocytes. MiR-450b-5p and miR-210-3p can increase the tolerance of cardiomyocytes to hypoxia/reoxygenation through the inhibition of ferroptosis. Circ_0091761 RNA, miR-214-3p, miR-199a-5p, miR-208a/b, miR-375-3p, miR-26b-5p and miR-15a-5p can aggravate myocardial ferroptosis.

Abstract
Diabetic kidney disease is one of the complications of diabetes mellitus, which can eventually progress to end-stage kidney disease. The increasing prevalence of diabetic kidney disease has brought huge economic burden to society and seriously jeopardized public health. Ferroptosis is an iron-dependent, non-apoptosis-regulated form of cell death. The regulation of ferroptosis involves different molecular mechanisms and multiple cellular metabolic pathways. In recent years, ferroptosis has been proved to be closely related to the occurrence and development of diabetic kidney disease, and can interact with pathological changes such as fibrosis, inflammation, oxidative stress, and disorders of glucose and lipid metabolism, destroying the structure, form and function of the inherent cells of the kidney, and promoting the progression of the disease. Traditional Chinese medicine has a long history of treating diabetic kidney disease with remarkable curative effect. Current scholars have shown that the oral administration of traditional Chinese medicine and the external treatment of Chinese medicine can regulate GPX4, Nrf2, ACSL4, PTGS2, TFR1 and other key signaling molecules, curb ferroptosis, and prevent the progressive deterioration of diabetic kidney disease. In this paper, the mechanism of ferroptosis and diabetic kidney disease and the prevention and treatment of traditional Chinese medicine are analyzed and summarized, in order to provide new ideas and new plans for the treatment of diabetic kidney disease.

Toxicol Appl Pharmacol 2024; 482:116794. [PMID: 38142782 DOI: 10.1016/j.taap.2023.116794] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/18/2023] [Revised: 12/13/2023] [Accepted: 12/19/2023] [Indexed: 12/26/2023]
Abstract
Doxorubicin (Dox) is a widely used antitumor agent with dose-dependent and cumulative cardiotoxic effects. Resveratrol (Res) is a natural non-flavonoid polyphenol that can potentially provide cardiovascular benefits. We aimed to estimate the protective effect of Res on Dox-induced cardiotoxicity (DIC) and explore whether it was related to attenuating ferroptosis. We established DIC models in C57BL/6 J mice, H9C2 cardiomyoblasts, and neonatal rat cardiomyocytes (NRCMs). We further treated H9C2 cells with RSL3, a ferroptosis agonist, to investigate whether Res exerted protective effects through inhibiting ferroptosis. Ferrostatin-1 (Fer-1) was applied to suppress ferroptosis. Dox treatment caused cardiac dysfunction and resulted in apparent ferroptotic damage in cardiac tissue, involving increased iron accumulation, glutathione depletion, increased expression of ferroptosis-related proteins, and decreased expression of glutathione peroxidase 4, which were alleviated by Fer-1 and Res administration. These findings were also confirmed in Dox-treated H9C2 cells and NRCMs, with Fer-1 and Res effectively attenuating Dox-induced cytotoxicity and ferroptosis. Furthermore, Res protected H9C2 cells from RSL3-induced ferroptotic cell death, and the protective effect was similar to that of Fer-1. Both Dox and RSL3 treatment increased the phosphorylation levels of mitogen-activated protein kinases (MAPKs), including extracellular signal-regulated kinase, p38, and c-Jun N-terminal kinases; however, these changes were hindered by Res. This study demonstrates that Res effectively alleviates DIC by suppressing ferroptosis possibly through modulating the MAPK signaling pathway. Our results highlight that targeting ferroptosis can be a potential cardioprotective strategy for DIC.

Abstract
Cancer therapy-induced heart injury is a significant concern for cancer patients undergoing chemotherapy, radiotherapy, immunotherapy, and also targeted molecular therapy. The use of these treatments can lead to oxidative stress and cardiomyocyte damage in the heart, which can result in heart failure and other cardiac complications. Experimental studies have revealed that chemotherapy drugs such as doxorubicin and cyclophosphamide can cause severe side effects such as cardiac fibrosis, electrophysiological remodeling, chronic oxidative stress and inflammation, etc., which may increase risk of cardiac disorders and attacks for patients that underwent chemotherapy. Similar consequences may also be observed for patients that undergo radiotherapy for left breast or lung malignancies. Polyphenols, a group of natural compounds with antioxidant and anti-inflammatory properties, have shown the potential in protecting against cancer therapy-induced heart injury. These compounds have been found to reduce oxidative stress, necrosis and apoptosis in the heart, thereby preserving cardiac function. In recent years, nanoparticles loaded with polyphenols have also provided for the delivery of these compounds and increasing their efficacy in different organs. These nanoparticles can improve the bioavailability and efficacy of polyphenols while minimizing their toxicity. This review article summarizes the current understanding of the protective effects of polyphenols and nanoparticles loaded with polyphenols against cancer therapy-induced heart injury. The article discusses the mechanisms by which polyphenols protect the heart, including antioxidant and anti-inflammation abilities. The article also highlights the potential benefits of using nanoparticles for the delivery of polyphenols.

Abstract
Ferroptosis, a newly recognized form of nonapoptotic regulated cell death, is characterized by iron-dependent lipid peroxidation. Biological processes, such as iron metabolism, lipid peroxidation, and amino acid metabolism, are involved in the process of ferroptosis. However, the related molecular mechanism of ferroptosis has not yet been completely clarified, and specific and sensitive biomarkers for ferroptosis need to be explored. Recently, studies have revealed that ferroptosis probably causes or exacerbates the progress of cardiovascular diseases, and could be the potential therapeutic target for cardiovascular diseases. In this review, we summarize the molecular mechanisms regulating ferroptosis, inducers or inhibitors of ferroptosis, and the current progresses of ferroptosis in cardiovascular diseases. Furthermore, we discuss the emerging challenges and future perspectives, which may provide novel insights into the treatment of cardiovascular diseases.

Abstract
Ferroptosis, a regulated form of cellular death characterized by the iron-mediated accumulation of lipid peroxides, provides a novel avenue for delving into the intersection of cellular metabolism, oxidative stress, and disease pathology. We have witnessed a mounting fascination with ferroptosis, attributed to its pivotal roles across diverse physiological and pathological conditions including developmental processes, metabolic dynamics, oncogenic pathways, neurodegenerative cascades, and traumatic tissue injuries. By unraveling the intricate underpinnings of the molecular machinery, pivotal contributors, intricate signaling conduits, and regulatory networks governing ferroptosis, researchers aim to bridge the gap between the intricacies of this unique mode of cellular death and its multifaceted implications for health and disease. In light of the rapidly advancing landscape of ferroptosis research, we present a comprehensive review aiming at the extensive implications of ferroptosis in the origins and progress of human diseases. This review concludes with a careful analysis of potential treatment approaches carefully designed to either inhibit or promote ferroptosis. Additionally, we have succinctly summarized the potential therapeutic targets and compounds that hold promise in targeting ferroptosis within various diseases. This pivotal facet underscores the burgeoning possibilities for manipulating ferroptosis as a therapeutic strategy. In summary, this review enriched the insights of both investigators and practitioners, while fostering an elevated comprehension of ferroptosis and its latent translational utilities. By revealing the basic processes and investigating treatment possibilities, this review provides a crucial resource for scientists and medical practitioners, aiding in a deep understanding of ferroptosis and its effects in various disease situations.

[PMID: 37419272 DOI: 10.1016/j.tox.2023.153589] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/07/2023] [Revised: 06/29/2023] [Accepted: 07/04/2023] [Indexed: 07/09/2023]
Abstract
Deoxynivalenol (DON) is one of the most serious mycotoxins that contaminate food and feed, causing hepatocyte death. However, there is still a lack of understanding regarding the new cell death modalities that explain DON-induced hepatocyte toxicity. Ferroptosis is an iron-dependent type of cell death. The aim of this study was to explore the role of ferroptosis in DON-exposed HepG2 cytotoxicity and the antagonistic effect of resveratrol (Res) on its toxicity, and the underlying molecular mechanisms. HepG2 cells were treated with Res (8μM) or/and DON (0.4μM) for 12hours. We examined cell viability, cell proliferation, expression of ferroptosis-related genes, levels of lipid peroxidation and Fe(II). The results revealed that DON reduced the expression levels of GPX4, SLC7A11, GCLC, NQO1, and Nrf2 while promoting the expression of TFR1, GSH depletion, accumulation of MDA and total ROS. DON enhanced production of 4-HNE, lipid ROS and Fe(II) overload, resulting in ferroptosis. However, pretreatment with Res reversed these changes, attenuating DON-induced ferroptosis, improving cell viability and cell proliferation. Importantly, Res prevented Erastin and RSL3-induced ferroptosis, suggesting that Res exerted an anti-ferroptosis effect by activating SLC7A11-GSH-GPX4 signaling pathways. In summary, Res ameliorated DON-induced ferroptosis in HepG2 cells. This study provides a new perspective on the mechanism of DON-induced hepatotoxicity formation, and Res may be an effective drug to alleviate DON-induced hepatotoxicity.

[PMID: 37221467 DOI: 10.1186/s11658-023-00451-y] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/22/2023] [Accepted: 04/17/2023] [Indexed: 05/25/2023] Open
Abstract
Oncologic patients are subjected to four major treatment types: surgery, radiotherapy, chemotherapy, and immunotherapy. All nonsurgical forms of cancer management are known to potentially violate the structural and functional integrity of the cardiovascular system. The prevalence and severity of cardiotoxicity and vascular abnormalities led to the emergence of a clinical subdiscipline, called cardiooncology. This relatively new, but rapidly expanding area of knowledge, primarily focuses on clinical observations linking the adverse effects of cancer therapy with deteriorated quality of life of cancer survivors and their increased morbidity and mortality. Cellular and molecular determinants of these relations are far less understood, mainly because of several unsolved paths and contradicting findings in the literature. In this article, we provide a comprehensive view of the cellular and molecular etiology of cardiooncology. We pay particular attention to various intracellular processes that arise in cardiomyocytes, vascular endothelial cells, and smooth muscle cells treated in experimentally-controlled conditions in vitro and in vivo with ionizing radiation and drugs representing diverse modes of anti-cancer activity.
