Abstract
The discovery of regulatory cell death processes has driven innovation in cardiovascular disease (CVD) therapeutic strategies. Over the past decade, ferroptosis, an iron-dependent form of regulated cell death driven by excessive lipid peroxidation, has been shown to drive the development of multiple CVDs. This review provides insights into the evolution of the concept of ferroptosis, the similarities and differences with traditional modes of programmed cell death (e.g., apoptosis, autophagy, and necrosis), as well as the core regulatory mechanisms of ferroptosis (including cystine/glutamate transporter blockade, imbalance of iron metabolism, and lipid peroxidation). In addition, it provides not only a detailed review of the role of ferroptosis and its therapeutic potential in widely studied CVDs such as coronary atherosclerotic heart disease, myocardial infarction, myocardial ischemia/reperfusion injury, heart failure, cardiomyopathy, and aortic aneurysm but also an overview of the phenomenon and therapeutic perspectives of ferroptosis in lesser-addressed CVDs such as cardiac valvulopathy, pulmonary hypertension, and sickle cell disease. This article aims to integrate this knowledge to provide a comprehensive view of ferroptosis in a wide range of CVDs and to drive innovation and progress in therapeutic strategies in this field.

Lin L, Li X, Li Y, Lang Z, Li Y, Zheng J. Ginsenoside Rb1 induces hepatic stellate cell ferroptosis to alleviate liver fibrosis via the BECN1/SLC7A11 axis. J Pharm Anal 2024; 14:100902. [PMID: 38784156 PMCID: PMC11112007 DOI: 10.1016/j.jpha.2023.11.009] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/29/2023] [Revised: 11/02/2023] [Accepted: 11/21/2023] [Indexed: 05/25/2024] Open
Abstract
Liver fibrosis is primarily driven by the activation of hepatic stellate cells (HSCs), a process associated with ferroptosis. Ginsenoside Rb1 (GRb1), a major active component extracted from Panax ginseng, inhibits HSC activation. However, the potential role of GRb1 in mediating HSC ferroptosis remains unclear. This study examined the effect of GRb1 on liver fibrosis both in vivo and in vitro, using CCl4-induced liver fibrosis mouse model and primary HSCs, LX-2 cells. The findings revealed that GRb1 effectively inactivated HSCs in vitro, reducing alpha-smooth muscle actin (α-SMA) and Type I collagen (Col1A1) levels. Moreover, GRb1 significantly alleviated CCl4-induced liver fibrosis in vivo. From a mechanistic standpoint, the ferroptosis pathway appeared to be central to the antifibrotic effects of GRb1. Specifically, GRb1 promoted HSC ferroptosis both in vivo and in vitro, characterized by increased glutathione depletion, malondialdehyde production, iron overload, and accumulation of reactive oxygen species (ROS). Intriguingly, GRb1 increased Beclin 1 (BECN1) levels and decreased the System Xc-key subunit SLC7A11. Further experiments showed that BECN1 silencing inhibited GRb1-induced effects on HSC ferroptosis and mitigated the reduction of SLC7A11 caused by GRb1. Moreover, BECN1 could directly interact with SLC7A11, initiating HSC ferroptosis. In conclusion, the suppression of BECN1 counteracted the effects of GRb1 on HSC inactivation both in vivo and in vitro. Overall, this study highlights the novel role of GRb1 in inducing HSC ferroptosis and promoting HSC inactivation, at least partly through its modulation of BECN1 and SLC7A11.

Abstract
GPX4 (Glutathione peroxidase 4) serves as a crucial intracellular regulatory factor, participating in various physiological processes and playing a significant role in maintaining the redox homeostasis within the body. Ferroptosis, a form of iron-dependent non-apoptotic cell death, has gained considerable attention in recent years due to its involvement in multiple pathological processes. GPX4 is closely associated with ferroptosis and functions as the primary inhibitor of this process. Together, GPX4 and ferroptosis contribute to the pathophysiology of several diseases, including sepsis, nervous system diseases, ischemia reperfusion injury, cardiovascular diseases, and cancer. This review comprehensively explores the regulatory roles and impacts of GPX4 and ferroptosis in the development and progression of these diseases, with the aim of providing insights for identifying potential therapeutic strategies in the future.

Elevated levels of alcohol dehydrogenase aggravate ethanol-evoked cardiac remodeling and contractile anomalies through FKBP5-yap-mediated regulation of ferroptosis and ER stress. Life Sci 2024; 343:122508. [PMID: 38382873 DOI: 10.1016/j.lfs.2024.122508] [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: 12/13/2023] [Revised: 02/07/2024] [Accepted: 02/16/2024] [Indexed: 02/23/2024]
Abstract
Alcohol intake provokes severe organ injuries including alcoholic cardiomyopathy with hallmarks of cardiac remodeling and contractile defects. This study examined the toxicity of facilitated ethanol metabolism in alcoholism-evoked changes in myocardial morphology and contractile function, insulin signaling and various cell death domains using cardiac-selective overexpression of alcohol dehydrogenase (ADH). WT and ADH mice were offered an alcohol liquid diet for 12 weeks prior to assessment of cardiac geometry, function, ER stress, apoptosis and ferroptosis. Alcohol intake provoked pronounced glucose intolerance, cardiac remodeling and contractile anomalies with apoptosis, ER stress, and ferroptosis, the effects were accentuated by ADH with the exception of global glucose intolerance. Hearts from alcohol ingesting mice displayed dampened insulin-stimulated phosphorylation of insulin receptor (tyr1146) and IRS-1 (tyrosine) along with elevated IRS-1 serine phosphorylation, the effect was augmented by ADH. Alcohol challenge dampened phosphorylation of Akt and GSK-3β, and increased phosphorylation of c-Jun and JNK, the effects were accentuated by ADH. Alcohol challenge promoted ER stress, FK506 binding protein 5 (FKBP5), YAP, apoptosis and ferroptosis, the effects were exaggerated by ADH. Using a short-term ethanol challenge model (3 g/kg, i.p., twice in three days), we found that inhibition of FKBP5-YAP signaling or facilitated ethanol detoxification by Alda-1 alleviated ethanol cardiotoxicity. In vitro study revealed that the ethanol metabolite acetaldehyde evoked cardiac contractile anomalies, lipid peroxidation, and apoptosis, the effects of which were mitigated by Alda-1, inhibition of ER stress, FKBP5 and YAP. These data suggest that facilitated ethanol metabolism via ADH exacerbates alcohol-evoked myocardial remodeling, functional defects, and insulin insensitivity possibly through a FKBP5-YAP-associated regulation of ER stress and ferroptosis.

Abstract
With the rapid development of new generations of antitumor therapies, the average survival time of cancer patients is expected to be continuously prolonged. However, these therapies often lead to cardiotoxicity, resulting in a growing number of tumor survivors with cardiovascular disease. Therefore, a new interdisciplinary subspecialty called "cardio-oncology" has emerged, aiming to detect and treat cardiovascular diseases associated with tumors and antitumor therapies. Recent studies have highlighted the role of ferroptosis in both cardiovascular and neoplastic diseases. The balance between intracellular oxidative stress and antioxidant defense is crucial in regulating ferroptosis. Tumor cells can evade ferroptosis by upregulating multiple antioxidant defense pathways, while many antitumor therapies rely on downregulating antioxidant defense and promoting ferroptosis in cancer cells. Unfortunately, these ferroptosis-inducing antitumor therapies often lack tissue specificity and can also cause injury to the heart, resulting in ferroptosis-induced cardiotoxicity. A range of cardioprotective agents exert cardioprotective effects by inhibiting ferroptosis. However, these cardioprotective agents might diminish the efficacy of antitumor treatment due to their antiferroptotic effects. Most current research on ferroptosis only focuses on either tumor treatment or heart protection but rarely considers both in concert. Therefore, further research is needed to study how to protect the heart during antitumor therapies by regulating ferroptosis. In this review, we summarized the role of ferroptosis in the treatment of neoplastic diseases and cardiovascular diseases and also attempted to propose further research directions for ferroptosis in the field of cardio-oncology.

Metallothionein Alleviates Glutathione Depletion-Induced Oxidative Cardiomyopathy through CISD1-Dependent Regulation of Ferroptosis in Murine Hearts. THE AMERICAN JOURNAL OF PATHOLOGY 2024:S0002-9440(24)00078-6.

Abstract
This study was designed to discern the effect of heavy scavenger metallothionein on glutathione (GSH) deprivation-evoked cardiac anomalies and mechanisms involved with an emphasis on ferroptosis. Wild-type and cardiac metallothionein transgenic mice received GSH synthase inhibitor buthionine sulfoximine (BSO; 30 mmol/L in drinking water) for 14 days before assessment of myocardial morphology and function. BSO evoked cardiac remodeling and contractile anomalies, including cardiac hypertrophy, interstitial fibrosis, enlarged left ventricular chambers, deranged ejection fraction, fraction shortening, cardiomyocyte contractile capacity, intracellular Ca2+ handling, sarcoplasmic reticulum Ca2+ reuptake, loss of mitochondrial integrity (mitochondrial swelling, loss of aconitase activity), mitochondrial energy deficit, carbonyl damage, lipid peroxidation, ferroptosis, and apoptosis. Metallothionein itself did not affect myocardial morphology and function, although it mitigated BSO-provoked myocardial anomalies, loss of mitochondrial integrity and energy, and ferroptosis. Immunoblotting revealed down-regulated sarco(endo)plasmic reticulum Ca2+-ATPase 2a, glutathione peroxidase 4, the ferroptosis-suppressing iron-sulfur domain 1 (CISD1), and mitochondrial regulating glycogen synthase kinase-3β phosphorylation with elevated p53, myosin heavy chain-β isozyme, IκB phosphorylation, and SLC7A11 as well as unchanged SLC39A1, SLC1A5, and ferroptosis-suppressing protein 1 following BSO challenge, all of which, except glutamine transporter SLC7A11 and p53, were abrogated by metallothionein. Inhibition of CISD1 using pioglitazone nullified GSH-offered benefit against BSO-induced cardiomyocyte ferroptosis and contractile and intracellular Ca2+ derangement. Taken together, these findings support a regulatory modality for CISD1 in the impedance of ferroptosis in metallothionein-offered protection against GSH depletion-evoked cardiac aberration.

Heavy Metal Scavenger Metallothionein Rescues Against Cold Stress-Evoked Myocardial Contractile Anomalies Through Regulation of Mitophagy. Cardiovasc Toxicol 2024; 24:85-101.

Abstract
Cold stress prompts an increased prevalence of cardiovascular morbidity yet the underneath machinery remains unclear. Oxidative stress and autophagy appear to contribute to cold stress-induced cardiac anomalies. Our present study evaluated the effect of heavy metal antioxidant metallothionein on cold stress (4 °C)-induced in cardiac remodeling and contractile anomalies and cell signaling involved including regulation of autophagy and mitophagy. Cold stress (3 weeks) prompted interstitial fibrosis, mitochondrial damage (mitochondrial membrane potential and TEM ultrastructure), oxidative stress (glutathione, reactive oxygen species and superoxide), lipid peroxidation, protein injury, elevated left ventricular (LV) end systolic and diastolic diameters, decreased fractional shortening, ejection fraction, Langendorff heart function, cardiomyocyte shortening, maximal velocities of shortening/relengthening, and electrically stimulated intracellular Ca2+ rise along with elongated relaxation duration and intracellular Ca2+ clearance, the responses of which were overtly attenuated or mitigated by metallothionein. Levels of apoptosis, cell death (Bax and loss of Bcl2, IL-18), and autophagy (LC3BII-to-LC3BI ratio, Atg7 and Beclin-1) were overtly upregulated with comparable p62 under cold stress. Cold stress also evoked elevated mitophagy (decreased TOM20, increased Parkin and FUNDC1 with unaltered BNIP3). Cold stress overtly dampened phosphorylation of autophagy/mitophagy inhibitory molecules Akt and mTOR, stimulated and suppressed phosphorylation of ULK1 and eNOS, respectively, in the absence of altered pan protein levels. Cold stress-evoked responses in cell death, autophagy, mitophagy and their regulatory domains were overtly attenuated or ablated by metallothionein. Suppression of autophagy and mitophagy with 3-methyladenine, bafilomycin A1, cyclosporine A, and liensinine rescued hypothermia-instigated cardiomyocyte LC3B puncta formation and mechanical anomalies. Our findings support a protective nature for metallothionein in deep hypothermia-evoked cardiac abnormalities associated with regulation of autophagy and mitophagy.

Cardiomyocyte-specific deletion of endothelin receptor A (ET A) obliterates cardiac aging through regulation of mitophagy and ferroptosis. Biochim Biophys Acta Mol Basis Dis 2024; 1870:166958.

Abstract
Advanced aging evokes unfavorable changes in the heart including cardiac remodeling and contractile dysfunction although the underlying mechanism remains elusive. This study was conducted to evaluate the role of endothelin-1 (ET-1) in the pathogenesis of cardiac aging and mechanism involved. Echocardiographic and cardiomyocyte mechanical properties were determined in young (5-6 mo) and aged (26-28 mo) wild-type (WT) and cardiomyocyte-specific ETA receptor knockout (ETAKO) mice. GSEA enrichment identified differentially expressed genes associated with mitochondrial respiration, mitochondrial protein processing and mitochondrial depolarization in cardiac aging. Aging elevated plasma levels of ET-1, Ang II and suppressed serum Fe2+, evoked cardiac remodeling (hypertrophy and interstitial fibrosis), contractile defects (fractional shortening, ejection fraction, cardiomyocyte peak shortening, maximal velocity of shortening/relengthening and prolonged relengthening) and intracellular Ca2+ mishandling (dampened intracellular Ca2+ release and prolonged decay), the effects with the exception of plasma AngII, ET-1 and Fe2+ were mitigated by ETAKO. Advanced age facilitated O2- production, carbonyl protein damage, cardiac hypertrophy (GATA4, ANP, NFATc3), ER stress, ferroptosis, compromised autophagy (LC3B, Beclin-1, Atg7, Atg5 and p62) and mitophagy (parkin and FUNDC1), and deranged intracellular Ca2+ proteins (SERCA2a and phospholamban), the effects of which were reversed by ETA ablation. ET-1 provoked ferroptosis in vitro, the response was nullified by the ETA receptor antagonist BQ123 and mitophagy inducer CsA. ETA but not ETB receptor antagonism reconciled cardiac aging, which was abrogated by inhibition of mitophagy and ferroptosis. These findings collectively denote promises of targeting ETA, mitophagy and ferroptosis in the management of aging-associated cardiac remodeling and contractile defect.

Abstract
Cardiac fibrosis is a critical pathophysiological process that occurs with diverse types of cardiac injury. Lipids are the most important bioenergy substrates for maintaining optimal heart performance and act as second messengers to transduce signals within cardiac cells. However, lipid metabolism reprogramming is a double-edged sword in the regulation of cardiomyocyte homeostasis and heart function. Moreover, lipids can exert diverse effects on cardiac fibrosis through different signaling pathways. In this review, we provide a brief overview of aberrant cardiac lipid metabolism and recent progress in pharmacological research targeting lipid metabolism alterations in cardiac fibrosis.

Beneficial impact of cardiac heavy metal scavenger metallothionein in sepsis-provoked cardiac anomalies dependent upon regulation of endoplasmic reticulum stress and ferroptosis but not autophagy. Life Sci 2024; 336:122291. [PMID: 38030060 DOI: 10.1016/j.lfs.2023.122291] [Citation(s) in RCA: 4] [Impact Index Per Article: 4.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/19/2023] [Revised: 11/21/2023] [Accepted: 11/21/2023] [Indexed: 12/01/2023]
Abstract
AIMS Sepsis represents a profound proinflammatory response with a major contribution from oxidative injury. Here we evaluated possible impact of heavy metal scavenger metallothionein (MT) on endotoxin lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-induced oxidative stress, endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress, autophagy, and ferroptosis enroute to myocardial injury along with interplay among these stress domains. MATERIALS AND METHODS Echocardiographic, cardiomyocyte mechanical and intracellular Ca2+ responses were monitored in myocardia from WT and transgenic mice with cardiac-selective MT overexpression challenged with LPS. Oxidative stress, stress signaling (p38, ERK, JNK), ER stress, autophagy, and ferroptosis were scrutinized. KEY FINDINGS RNAseq analysis revealed discrepant patterns in ferroptosis between LPS-exposed and normal murine hearts. LPS insult enlarged LV end systolic dimension, suppressed fractional shortening, ejection fraction, maximal velocity of shortening/relengthening and peak shortening, as well as elongated relengthening along with dampened intracellular Ca2+ release and reuptake. In addition, LPS triggered oxidative stress (lowered glutathione/glutathione disulfide ratio and O2- production), activation of stress cascades (p38, ERK, JNK), ER stress (GRP78, PERK, Gadd153, and IRE1α), inflammation (TNFα and iNOS), unchecked autophagy (LCB3, Beclin-1 and Atg7), ferroptosis (GPx4 and SLC7A11) and interstitial fibrosis. Although MT overexpression itself did not reveal response on cardiac function, it attenuated or mitigated LPS-evoked alterations in echocardiographic, cardiomyocyte contractile and intracellular Ca2+ characteristics, O2- production, TNFα level, ER stress and ferroptosis (without affecting autophagy, elevated AMP/ATP ratio, and iNOS). In vitro evidence revealed beneficial effects of suppression of oxidative stress, ER stress and ferroptosis against LPS-elicited myocardial anomalies. SIGNIFICANCE These data strongly support the therapeutic promises of MT and ferroptosis in septic cardiomyopathy.

Abstract
Echinacoside (ECH) is a compound derived from the natural herbs Cistanche and Echinacea, which has considerable protective effects on heart failure (HF). HF is characterized by myocardial damage and abnormal ferroptosis. Glutathione peroxidase 4 (GPX4) is an important regulator of ferroptosis, which plays a role in ferroptosis-related diseases. Despite this, the therapeutic mechanisms of ECH against HF remain unknown. Therefore, the aim of the present study was to investigate the cardioprotective effect and underlying mechanisms of ECH in the treatment of doxorubicin (DOX)-induced chronic HF (CHF). Cell proliferation was assessed using a CCK-8 assay. Furthermore, cardiac cell injury and oxidative stress were determined by measuring the lactate dehydrogenase (LDH), malondialdehyde (MDA), and glutathione (GSH) levels. The levels of Fe2+ and lipid reactive oxygen species (ROS), and expression of the biomarkers of ferroptosis, including GPX4 and prostaglandin-endoperoxide synthase 2 (PTGS2), were measured to examine cardiomyocyte ferroptosis. Additionally, RNA interference was used to silence Gpx4. In vitro and in vivo, ECH considerably reduced the MDA and LDH levels and increased the GSH level, thereby attenuating DOX-induced cardiac injury and oxidative stress. Meanwhile, ECH treatment decreased the lipid ROS levels and PTGS2 expression while increasing GPX4 expression, thereby alleviating DOX-induced cardiomyocyte ferroptosis. Moreover, knockdown of Gpx4 inhibited the protective effects of ECH on DOX-induced accumulation of lipid ROS in cardiomyocytes. These findings indicate that ECH can reduce DOX-induced cardiac injury by inhibiting ferroptosis via GPX4, highlighting its value as a potentially valuable therapeutic target in the management of CHF.

Abstract
Sepsis is a clinical syndrome characterized by a dysregulated host response to infection, leading to life-threatening organ dysfunction. It is a high-fatality condition associated with a complex interplay of immune and inflammatory responses that can cause severe harm to vital organs. Sepsis-induced myocardial injury (SIMI), as a severe complication of sepsis, significantly affects the prognosis of septic patients and shortens their survival time. For the sake of better administrating hospitalized patients with sepsis, it is necessary to understand the specific mechanisms of SIMI. To date, multiple studies have shown that programmed cell death (PCD) may play an essential role in myocardial injury in sepsis, offering new strategies and insights for the therapeutic aspects of SIMI. This review aims to elucidate the role of cardiomyocyte's programmed death in the pathophysiological mechanisms of SIMI, with a particular focus on the classical pathways, key molecules, and signaling transduction of PCD. It will explore the role of the cross-interaction between different patterns of PCD in SIMI, providing a new theoretical basis for multi-target treatments for SIMI.

Abstract
One of the newly recognized types of cell death is ferroptosis which is related to the accumulation of iron and lipid-reactive oxygen species. Ferroptosis is considered a programmed cell death with a different mechanism from apoptosis, necrosis, and autophagy. Emerging evidence suggests that ferroptosis may occur in the context of cardiovascular disease (CVD), cancer, neurodegenerative diseases, and non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD). Statins are the first-line therapy for dyslipidemia. The suppression of the HMG-CoA reductase by statins leads to decreased expression of glutathione peroxidase 4 (GPX4), a key regulator of lipid peroxidation, which in turn results in lipid ROS production and induction of ferroptosis. Experimental data suggest that statins may act as anti-cancer drugs by enhancing tumor cells' ferroptosis. In contrast, statins have also been reported to mitigate ferroptosis in animal models of myocardial ischemia-reperfusion and heart failure. This mini-review presents statin effects on the ferroptosis pathway, based on up-to-date in vivo and in vitro research. Furthermore, the potential impact of these effects on cardiometabolic diseases (e.g., CVD and NAFLD) and cancer is briefly discussed. Overall, there is a need for future studies focusing on statin-induced changes in ferroptosis as a therapeutic approach to such diseases.

Abstract
Exposure to cold promotes cardiac remodeling, characterized by deleterious effects on structure and function, contributing to increased mortality from cardiovascular diseases. The mechanisms associated with these changes are poorly understood. This review gathers the literature data on the main alterations and mechanisms associated with the adverse cardiac structural and functional remodeling induced by cold exposure in mice. Original studies were identified by searching PubMed, Scopus, and Embase databases from January 1990 to June 2022. This systematic review was conducted in accordance with the criteria established by PRISMA and registered in PROSPERO (CRD42022350637). The risk of bias was evaluated by the SYRCLE. Eligible studies included original papers published in English that evaluated cardiac outcomes in mice submitted to short- or long-time cold exposure and had a control group at room temperature. Seventeen original articles were included in this review. Cold exposure induces pathological cardiac remodeling, characterized by detrimental structural and functional parameters, changes in metabolism and autophagy process, and increases in oxidative stress, inflammation, and apoptosis. In addition, Nppa, AT1A, Fbp3, BECN, ETA, and MT, appear to play fundamental roles in regulating cardiac remodeling. We suggest that strategies that seek to minimize the CVD risk and adverse effects of cold exposure should target these agents.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Chronic kidney disease (CKD) is one of the most significant cardiovascular risk factors, playing vital roles in various cardiovascular diseases such as calcific aortic valve disease (CAVD). We aim to explore the CKD-associated genes potentially involving CAVD pathogenesis, and to discover candidate biomarkers for the diagnosis of CKD with CAVD. METHODS Three CAVD, one CKD-PBMC and one CKD-Kidney datasets of expression profiles were obtained from the GEO database. Firstly, to detect CAVD key genes and CKD-associated secretory proteins, differentially expressed analysis and WGCNA were carried out. Protein-protein interaction (PPI), functional enrichment and cMAP analyses were employed to reveal CKD-related pathogenic genes and underlying mechanisms in CKD-related CAVD as well as the potential drugs for CAVD treatment. Then, machine learning algorithms including LASSO regression and random forest were adopted for screening candidate biomarkers and constructing diagnostic nomogram for predicting CKD-related CAVD. Moreover, ROC curve, calibration curve and decision curve analyses were applied to evaluate the diagnostic performance of nomogram. Finally, the CIBERSORT algorithm was used to explore immune cell infiltration in CAVD. RESULTS The integrated CAVD dataset identified 124 CAVD key genes by intersecting differential expression and WGCNA analyses. Totally 983 CKD-associated secretory proteins were screened by differential expression analysis of CKD-PBMC/Kidney datasets. PPI analysis identified two key modules containing 76 nodes, regarded as CKD-related pathogenic genes in CAVD, which were mostly enriched in inflammatory and immune regulation by enrichment analysis. The cMAP analysis exposed metyrapone as a more potential drug for CAVD treatment. 17 genes were overlapped between CAVD key genes and CKD-associated secretory proteins, and two hub genes were chosen as candidate biomarkers for developing nomogram with ideal diagnostic performance through machine learning. Furthermore, SLPI/MMP9 expression patterns were confirmed in our external cohort and the nomogram could serve as novel diagnosis models for distinguishing CAVD. Finally, immune cell infiltration results uncovered immune dysregulation in CAVD, and SLPI/MMP9 were significantly associated with invasive immune cells. CONCLUSIONS We revealed the inflammatory-immune pathways underlying CKD-related CAVD, and developed SLPI/MMP9-based CAVD diagnostic nomogram, which offered novel insights into future serum-based diagnosis and therapeutic intervention of CKD with CAVD.

Abstract
Lipopolysaccharide (LPS) from Gram-negative bacteria is a major contributor to cardiovascular failure, but the signaling mechanisms underlying its stress response are not fully understood. This study aimed to investigate the effect of the antioxidant enzyme catalase on LPS-induced cardiac abnormalities and the mechanisms involved, with particular focus on the interplay between autophagy, ferroptosis, and apoptosis. Cardiac-specific catalase (CAT) overexpression and wild-type (WT) mice were stimulated with LPS (6 mg/kg, intravenous injection), and cardiac morphology and function were evaluated. Oxidative stress, ferroptosis, apoptosis, and mitochondrial status were monitored, and survival curves were plotted based on the results of LPS stimulation. The results showed that, compared with WT mice, mice overexpressing catalase had a higher survival rate under LPS stimulation. Ultrasound echocardiography, cardiomyocyte characteristics, and Masson's trichrome staining showed that LPS inhibited cardiac function and caused cardiac fibrosis, while catalase alleviated these adverse effects. LPS increased apoptosis (TUNEL, caspase-3 activation, cleaved caspase-3), increased O2·- production, induced inflammation (TNF-α), autophagy, iron toxicity, and carbonyl damage, and significantly damaged mitochondria (mitochondrial membrane potential, mitochondrial proteins, and ultrastructure). These effects were significantly alleviated by catalase. Interestingly, the antioxidant N-acetylcysteine, autophagy inhibitor 3-methyladenine, and ferroptosis inhibitor lipostatin-1 all eliminated the LPS-induced contraction dysfunction and ferroptosis (using lipid peroxidation). Induction of ferroptosis could eliminate the cardioprotective effect of NAC. In conclusion, catalase rescues LPS-induced cardiac dysfunction by regulating oxidative stress, autophagy, ferroptosis, apoptosis, and mitochondrial damage in cardiomyocytes.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Uncorrected obesity is accompanied by unfavorable structural and functional changes in the heart, known as obesity cardiomyopathy. Recent evidence has revealed a crucial role for mitochondria-associated endoplasmic reticulum membranes (MAMs) in obesity-induced cardiac complication. Syntaxin 17 (STX17) serves as a scaffolding molecule localized on MAMs although its role in obesity heart complication remains elusive. METHODS AND MATERIALS This study examined the role of STX17 in MAMs and mitochondrial Ca2+ homeostasis in HFD-induced obesity cardiomyopathy using tamoxifen-induced cardiac-specific STX17 knockout (STX17cko) and STX17 overexpression mice using intravenously delivered recombinant adeno-associated virus serotype-9 (AAV9-cTNT-STX17). RESULTS STX17 levels were significantly elevated in plasma from obese patients and heart tissues of HFD-fed mice. Our data revealed that cardiac STX17 knockout alleviated cardiac remodeling and dysfunction in obese hearts without eliciting any notable effect itself, while STX17 overexpression aggravated cardiac dysfunction in obese mice. STX17 deletion and STX17 overexpression annihilated and aggravated, respectively, HFD-induced oxidative stress (O2- production) and mitochondrial injury in the heart. Furthermore, STX17 transfection facilitated obesity-induced MAMs formation in cardiomyocytes and evoked excess mitochondrial Ca2+ influx, dependent upon interaction with mitochondrial Ca2+ uniporter dominant negative β (MCUb) through Habc domain. Our data also suggested that STX17 promoted ubiquitination and degradation of MCUb through the E3 ligase parkin in the face of palmitate challenging. CONCLUSION Taken together, our results identified a novel role for STX17 in facilitating obesity-induced MAMs formation, and subsequently mitochondrial Ca2+ overload, mitochondrial O2- accumulation, lipid peroxidation, resulting in cardiac impairment. Our findings denoted therapeutic promises of targeting STX17 in obesity.

Abstract
The threat to human health from cold stimulation is increasing due to the frequent occurrence of temperature extremes. It is a challenge for people to resist the negative effects of prolonged cold stimulation on the heart. In this study, we created prolonged cold stimulation pig models to investigate the cardiac energy metabolism and injury during prolonged cold stimulation, and the molecular mechanisms by which dietary supplementation with full-fat rice bran reduces cardiac injury. The results showed that lesions in the morphological structure of the heart were detected under prolonged cold stimulation. At the same time, dystrophin was downregulated under the effect of prolonged cold stimulation. Cardiac fatty acid transport and utilization were promoted, and oxidative stress was increased under prolonged cold stimulation. It also increased MDA content and decreased T-AOC level in the heart, while promoting the mRNA expression of Nrf2 and NQO1, as well as the protein content of Nrf2 and HO-1. Prolonged cold stimulation induced mitochondrial lesions, mitochondrial fusion, and mitophagy in the heart. Prolonged cold stimulation promoted the mRNA expression of PTGS2, TLR4, MyD88, NLRP3, and IL-1β; and protein expression of PTGS2, NLRP3, and mature-IL-1β. GCH1 and FtH inhibited by prolonged cold stimulation caused the activation of heart ferroptosis. In addition, dietary supplementation with full-fat rice bran improved oxidative stress in the heart and inhibited mitophagy, ferroptosis, and pyroptosis. In conclusion, prolonged cold stimulation heightens the risk of cardiac ferroptosis and imbalance of energy metabolism, whereas dietary supplementation with full-fat rice bran mitigates the adverse effects of prolonged cold stimulation on the heart.

Abstract
Background Ferroptosis and long-noncoding RNAs (lncRNAs) play crucial roles in doxorubicin (DOX)-induced myocardial injury (DIMI). Nevertheless, there is no research to construct competing endogenous RNAs (ceRNAs) network between lncRNAs and ferroptosis-related key gene. So our research was designed to screen ferroptosis-related genes from differentially expressed mRNAs in DIMI and construct lncRNAs regulated ferroptosis-related key gene ceRNAs network. Methods The male mice were injected with DOX intraperitoneally to induce myocardial injury, myocardial injury was evaluated by hematoxylin and eosin (HE) staining, and ferroptosis-related protein-glutathione peroxidase 4 (GPx4) protein expression was detected. The differentially expressed lncRNAs and mRNAs were detected by microarray, and the ferroptosis-related genes were screened to construct a protein-protein associations (PPA) network, the highest maximal clique centrality (MCC) score gene were identified by Cytoscape software, miRNAs bound to key genes and lncRNAs bound to miRNAs were predicted; then, the obtained lncRNAs were intersected with differentially expressed lncRNAs detected by microarray. Finally, the lncRNA/miRNA/mRNA ceRNA network of the highest MCC score gene regulating ferroptosis in DIMI was constructed. The expressions of the key components in ceRNA network were detected by qRT-PCR. Results Compared with the control group, in the DOX group, myocardial enzymes and HE staining showed that myocardium structure was changed, and GPx4 protein expression was decreased. The differentially expressed 10,265 lncRNAs and 6,610 mRNAs in the DOX group were detected via microarray. Among them, 114 ferroptosis-related genes were obtained to construct PPA networks, and Becn1 was identified as the key gene. Finally, the ceRNA network including Becn1, three miRNAs and four lncRNAs was constructed by predicting data of the Starbase database. The relative expressions of these components in ceRNA net were up-regulated and consistent with microarray results. Conclusions Based on the microarray detection results and bioinformatics analysis, we screened ferroptosis-related gene Becn1 and constructed the lncRNA/miRNA/mRNA ceRNA network of regulated ferroptosis in DIMI.

Abstract
Obesity is one of the major public health problems threatening the world, as well as a potential risk factor for chronic metabolic diseases. There is growing evidence that iron metabolism is altered in obese people, however, the highly refined regulation of iron metabolism in obesity and obesity-related complications is still being investigated. Iron accumulation can affect the body’s sensitivity to insulin, Type 2 diabetes, liver disease and cardiovascular disease. This review summarized the changes and potential mechanisms of iron metabolism in several chronic diseases related to obesity, providing new clues for future research.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Hypothermia is a crucial environmental factor that elevates the risk of cardiovascular disease, but the underlying effect is unclear. OBJECTIVES This study examined the role of cold stress (CS) in cardiac injury and its underlying mechanisms. METHODS In this study, a chronic CS-induced myocardial injury model was used; mice were subjected to chronic CS (4°C) for three hours per day for three weeks. RESULTS CS could result in myocardial injury by inducing the levels of heat shock proteins 70 (HSP70), enhancing the generation of creatine phosphokinase-isoenzyme (CKMB) and malondialdehyde (MDA), increasing the contents of tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α), high mobility group box 1 (HMGB1) interleukin1b (IL-1β), IL-18, IL-6, and triggering the depletion of superoxide dismutase (SOD), catalase (CAT), and glutathione (GSH). Multiple signaling pathways were activated by cold exposure, including pyroptosis-associated NOD-like receptor 3 (NLRP3)-regulated caspase-1-dependent/Gasdermin D (GSDMD), inflammation-related toll-like receptor 4 (TLR4)/myeloid differentiation factor 88 (MyD88)-mediated nuclear factor kappa B (NF-κB), and mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK), as well as oxidative stress-involved thioredoxin-1/thioredoxin-interacting protein (Txnip) signaling pathways, which play a pivotal role in myocardial injury resulting from hypothermia. CONCLUSIONS These findings provide new insights into the increased risk of cardiovascular disease at extremely low temperatures.

Abstract
Trastuzumab (TZM) is commonly used for target therapy in breast cancer patients with high HER2 although the cardiotoxicity restricts its clinical usage. DNA damage and ferroptosis are implicated in anti-tumor drug cardiotoxicity. Given the emerging use of SGLT2 inhibitors in clinical cardiology, this study evaluated the impact of SGLT2 inhibitor Empagliflozin on TZM-induced cardiotoxicity, and mechanism involved with a focus on DNA damage and ferroptosis. Adult C57BL/6 mice were challenged with TZM (10 mg/kg/week, i.p.) or saline for six weeks. A cohort of mice received Empagliflozin (10 mg/kg, i.p.) at the same time. Myocardial function, morphology, ultrastructure, mitochondrial integrity, oxidative stress, DNA damage and various cell death domains were evaluated in TZM-challenged mice with or without Empagliflozin treatment. Our data revealed that TZM challenge overtly increased levels of serum LDH and troponin I, promoted adverse myocardial remodeling (increased heart weight, chamber size, cardiomyocyte area and interstitial fibrosis), contractile dysfunction and intracellular Ca2+ mishandling, oxidative stress, lipid peroxidation, mitochondrial ultrastructural damage, DNA damage, apoptosis and ferroptosis, the effects of which were greatly attenuated or mitigated by Empagliflozin with little effects from Empagliflozin itself. In vitro study indicated that induction of DNA damage mimicked TZM-induced lipid peroxidation and cardiomyocyte contractile dysfunction while the ferroptosis inducer erastin mitigated Empagliflozin-offered protection against lipid peroxidation and cardiomyocyte dysfunction (but not DNA damage). Likewise, in vivo and in vitro inhibition of ferroptosis recapitulated Empagliflozin-offered cardioprotection against TZM exposure. Taken together, these data demonstrated that Empagliflozin may be possible candidate drug for TZM cardiotoxicity likely through a DNA damage-ferroptosis-mediated mechanism.

Abstract
Urban airborne fine particulate matter (PM2.5) is a global pollution source that has been strongly related to multiple respiratory diseases involving various types of regulated cell death (RCD). However, the role of ferroptosis, a novel form of RCD, in PM2.5-induced acute lung injury (ALI), has not been elucidated. Herein, we define the role and mechanism of ferroptosis in a PM2.5-induced ALI model. First, we demonstrated that lipid peroxidation and iron accumulation were significantly enhanced in ALI models and were accompanied by activation of the AMP-activated protein kinase (AMPK)-Beclin1 signaling pathway and inhibition of the key subunit SLC7A11 of System Xc-. However, these abnormalities were partially reversed by ferroptosis inhibitors. We further revealed that Beclin1 knockdown or overexpression ameliorated or exacerbated PM2.5-induced ferroptosis, respectively. Mechanistically, we verified that Beclin1 blocks System Xc- activity to trigger ferroptosis by directly binding to SLC7A11. Finally, knockdown of Beclin1 by AAV-shRNA or inhibition of AMPK, an upstream activator of Beclin1, ameliorated PM2.5-induced ferroptosis and ALI. Taken together, our results revealed that ferroptosis plays a novel role in PM2.5-induced ALI and elucidated the specific mechanism involving the AMPK-Beclin1 pathway and System Xc-, which may provide new insight into the toxicological effects of PM2.5 on respiratory problems.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Binge drinking leads to compromised mitochondrial integrity and contractile function in the heart although little effective remedy is readily available. Given the possible derangement of autophagy in ethanol-induced cardiac anomalies, this study was designed to examine involvement of Beclin1 in acute ethanol-induced cardiac contractile dysfunction, in any, and the impact of Beclin1 haploinsufficiency on ethanol cardiotoxicity with a focus on autophagy-related ferroptosis. METHODS WT and Beclin1 haploinsufficiency (BECN+/-) mice were challenged with ethanol for one week (2 g/kg, i.p. on day 1, 3 and 7) prior to assessment of cardiac injury markers (LDH, CK-MB), cardiac geometry, contractile and mitochondrial integrity, oxidative stress, lipid peroxidation, apoptosis and ferroptosis. RESULTS Ethanol exposure compromised cardiac geometry and contractile function accompanied with upregulated Beclin1 and autophagy, mitochondrial injury, oxidative stress, lipid peroxidation and apoptosis, and ferroptosis (GPx4, SLC7A11, NCOA4). Although Beclin1 deficiency did not affect cardiac function in the absence of ethanol challenge, it alleviated ethanol-induced changes in cardiac injury biomarkers, cardiomyocyte area, interstitial fibrosis, echocardiographic and cardiomyocyte mechanical properties along with mitochondrial integrity, oxidative stress, lipid peroxidation, apoptosis and ferroptosis. Ethanol challenge evoked pronounced ferroptosis (downregulated GPx4, SLC7A11 and elevated NCOA4, lipid peroxidation), the effect was alleviated by Beclin1 haploinsufficiency. Inhibition of ferroptosis using LIP-1 rescued ethanol-induced cardiac mechanical anomalies. In vitro study noted that ferroptosis induction using erastin abrogated Beclin1 haploinsufficiency-induced response against ethanol. CONCLUSIONS In sum, our data suggest that Beclin1 haploinsufficiency benefits acute ethanol challenge-induced myocardial remodeling and contractile dysfunction through ferroptosis-mediated manner.

Abstract
Unlike other death forms, such as autophagy, necrosis, and apoptosis, ferroptosis is a novel type of programmed cell death with iron-dependent properties. Esteroxygenase affects the content of unsaturated fatty acids and promotes lipid peroxidation. In addition, GSH can cause the reduction of GPX4, which can cause ferroptosis. P53 and its signaling pathways also regulate ferroptosis. Recent studies have confirmed that ferroptosis also promotes the death of RGC. The progressive loss of RGC is one of the pathological features of glaucoma, indicating that ferroptosis may be related to the onset of glaucoma. Down-regulation of GPX4 leads to the loss of nerve cells, which suggests that ferroptosis may also be related to diseases related to optic nerve damage. At present, ferroptosis has been extensively researched and advanced in systemic diseases, such as cardiovascular diseases, gastrointestinal tumors such as stomach, liver, and pancreas, and brain diseases. This review focuses on the research progress of ferroptosis in ophthalmic diseases, especially glaucoma and optic nerve damage.

Abstract
Coronary heart disease (CHD) is closely related to oxidative stress and inflammatory response and is the most common cardiovascular disease (CVD). Iron is an essential mineral that participates in many physiological and biochemical reactions in the human body. Meanwhile, on the negative side, iron has an active redox capacity, which leads to the accumulation of reactive oxygen species (ROS) and lipid peroxidation. There is growing evidence that disordered iron metabolism is involved in CHD's pathological progression. And the result of disordered iron metabolism is associated with iron overload-induced programmed cell death, often called ferroptosis. That features iron-dependent lipid peroxidation. Ferroptosis may play a crucial role in the development of CHD, and targeting ferroptosis may be a promising option for treating CHD. Here, we review the mechanisms of iron metabolism in cardiomyocytes (CMs) and explain the correlation between iron metabolism and ferroptosis. Meanwhile, we highlight the specific roles of iron metabolism and ferroptosis in the main pathological progression of CHD.

Abstract
Sepsis‑induced cardiac dysfunction is one of the most common types of organ dysfunction in sepsis; its pathogenesis is highly complex and not yet fully understood. Cardiomyocytes serve a key role in the pathophysiology of cardiac function; due to the limited ability of cardiomyocytes to regenerate, their loss contributes to decreased cardiac function. The activation of inflammatory signalling pathways affects cardiomyocyte function and modes of cardiomyocyte death in sepsis. Prevention of cardiomyocyte death is an important therapeutic strategy for sepsis‑induced cardiac dysfunction. Thus, understanding the signalling pathways that activate cardiomyocyte death and cross‑regulation between death modes are key to finding therapeutic targets. The present review focused on advances in understanding of sepsis‑induced cardiomyocyte death pathways, including apoptosis, necroptosis, mitochondria‑mediated necrosis, pyroptosis, ferroptosis and autophagy. The present review summarizes the effect of inflammatory activation on cardiomyocyte death mechanisms, the diversity of regulatory mechanisms and cross‑regulation between death modes and the effect on cardiac function in sepsis to provide a theoretical basis for treatment of sepsis‑induced cardiac dysfunction.

Abstract
Background: Ferroptosis is a new form of cell death recently discovered that is distinct from apoptosis, necrosis and autophagy. This article is expected to provide a new direction for the treatment of cardiomyopathy in the future by screening potential drug targets associated with ferroptosis. Methods: Differential expression analysis of GSE5406 from the Gene Expression Omnibus (GEO) database was performed using the GEO2R tool. Functional annotation of ferroptosis related genes was also performed. Then we constructed protein-protein interaction networks and identified hub genes using Cytoscape. The candidates for pharmacological compounds targeting the hub genes were screened by cMap. Results: Totally 15 ferroptosis related genes (4 upregulated and 11 downregulated) for ischemic cardiomyopathy and 17 ferroptosis related genes (13 upregulated and 4 downregulated) for idiopathic cardiomyopathy were found. The biological processes involved in these genes mainly include negative regulation of apoptotic process, flavonoid metabolic process, response to drug for ischemic cardiomyopathy and cellular response to fibroblast growth factor stimulus, negative regulation of apoptotic process, and response to drug for idiopathic cardiomyopathy. KEGG results showed that these genes were mainly involved in MAPK signaling pathway for ischemic cardiomyopathy and PI3K-Akt signaling pathway for idiopathic cardiomyopathy. We generated a co-expression network for hub genes and obtained top 10 medications suggested respectively for ischemic/idiopathic cardiomyopathy. Conclusion: Our study reveals the potential role of ferroptosis related genes in ischemic and idiopathic cardiomyopathy through bioinformatics analysis. The hub genes and potential drugs may become novel biomarkers for prognosis and precision treatment in the future.

Abstract
Type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2D) contributes to sustained inflammation and myopathic changes in the heart although the precise interplay between the two remains largely unknown. This study evaluated the impact of deficiency in CD74, the cognate receptor for the regulatory cytokine macrophage migration inhibitory factor (MIF), in T2D-induced cardiac remodeling and functional responses, and cell death domains involved. WT and CD74-/- mice were fed a high fat diet (60% calorie from fat) for 8 weeks prior to injection of streptozotocin (STZ, 35 mg/kg, i.p., 3 consecutive days) and were maintained for another 8 weeks. KEGG analysis for differentially expressed genes (DEGs) reported gene ontology term related to ferroptosis in T2D mouse hearts. T2D patients displayed elevated plasma MIF levels. Murine T2D exerted overt global metabolic derangements, cardiac remodeling, contractile dysfunction, apoptosis, pyroptosis, ferroptosis and mitochondrial dysfunction, ablation of CD74 attenuated T2D-induced cardiac remodeling, contractile dysfunction, various forms of cell death and mitochondrial defects without affecting global metabolic defects. CD74 ablation rescued T2D-evoked NLRP3-Caspase1 activation and oxidative stress but not dampened autophagy. In vitro evidence depicted that high glucose/high fat (HGHF) compromised cardiomyocyte function and promoted lipid peroxidation, the effects were ablated by inhibitors of NLRP3, pyroptosis, and ferroptosis but not by the mitochondrial targeted antioxidant mitoQ. Recombinant MIF mimicked HGHF-induced lipid peroxidation, GSH depletion and ferroptosis, the effects of which were reversed by inhibitors of MIF, NLRP3 and pyroptosis. Taken together, these data suggest that CD74 ablation protects against T2D-induced cardiac remodeling and contractile dysfunction through NLRP3/pyroptosis-mediated regulation of ferroptosis.

Acta Pharmacol Sin 2022; 43:39-49.

Abstract
Alzheimer's disease (AD) is associated with high incidence of cardiovascular events but the mechanism remains elusive. Our previous study reveals a tight correlation between cardiac dysfunction and low mitochondrial aldehyde dehydrogenase (ALDH2) activity in elderly AD patients. In the present study we investigated the effect of ALDH2 overexpression on cardiac function in APP/PS1 mouse model of AD. Global ALDH2 transgenic mice were crossed with APP/PS1 mutant mice to generate the ALDH2-APP/PS1 mutant mice. Cognitive function, cardiac contractile, and morphological properties were assessed. We showed that APP/PS1 mice displayed significant cognitive deficit in Morris water maze test, myocardial ultrastructural, geometric (cardiac atrophy, interstitial fibrosis) and functional (reduced fractional shortening and cardiomyocyte contraction) anomalies along with oxidative stress, apoptosis, and inflammation in myocardium. ALDH2 transgene significantly attenuated or mitigated these anomalies. We also noted the markedly elevated levels of lipid peroxidation, the essential lipid peroxidation enzyme acyl-CoA synthetase long-chain family member 4 (ACSL4), the transcriptional regulator for ACLS4 special protein 1 (SP1) and ferroptosis, evidenced by elevated NCOA4, decreased GPx4, and SLC7A11 in myocardium of APP/PS1 mutant mice; these effects were nullified by ALDH2 transgene. In cardiomyocytes isolated from WT mice and in H9C2 myoblasts in vitro, application of Aβ (20 μM) decreased cell survival, compromised cardiomyocyte contractile function, and induced lipid peroxidation; ALDH2 transgene or activator Alda-1 rescued Aβ-induced deteriorating effects. ALDH2-induced protection against Aβ-induced lipid peroxidation was mimicked by the SP1 inhibitor tolfenamic acid (TA) or the ACSL4 inhibitor triacsin C (TC), and mitigated by the lipid peroxidation inducer 5-hydroxyeicosatetraenoic acid (5-HETE) or the ferroptosis inducer erastin. These results demonstrate an essential role for ALDH2 in AD-induced cardiac anomalies through regulation of lipid peroxidation and ferroptosis.

Abstract
Ferroptosis is a programmed iron-dependent cell death characterized by accumulation of lipid peroxides (LOOH) and redox disequilibrium. Ferroptosis shows unique characteristics in biology, chemistry, and gene levels, compared to other cell death forms. The metabolic disorder of intracellular LOOH catalyzed by iron causes the inactivity of GPX4, disrupts the redox balance, and triggers cell death. Metabolism of amino acid, iron, and lipid, including associated pathways, is considered as a specific hallmark of ferroptosis. Epidemiological studies and animal experiments have shown that ferroptosis plays an important character in the pathophysiology of cardiovascular disease such as atherosclerosis, myocardial infarction (MI), ischemia/reperfusion (I/R), heart failure (HF), cardiac hypertrophy, cardiomyopathy, and abdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA). This review systematically summarized the latest research progress on the mechanisms of ferroptosis. Then we report the contribution of ferroptosis in cardiovascular diseases. Finally, we discuss and analyze the therapeutic approaches targeting for ferroptosis associated with cardiovascular diseases.

Abstract
The endoplasmic reticulum (ER) hosts linear polypeptides and fosters natural folding of proteins through ER-residing chaperones and enzymes. Failure of the ER to align and compose proper protein architecture leads to accumulation of misfolded/unfolded proteins in the ER lumen, which disturbs ER homeostasis to provoke ER stress. Presence of ER stress initiates the cytoprotective unfolded protein response (UPR) to restore ER homeostasis or instigates a rather maladaptive UPR to promote cell death. Although a wide array of cellular processes such as persistent autophagy, dysregulated mitophagy, and secretion of proinflammatory cytokines may contribute to the onset and progression of cardiometabolic diseases, it is well perceived that ER stress also evokes the onset and development of cardiometabolic diseases, particularly cardiovascular diseases (CVDs), diabetes mellitus, obesity, and chronic kidney disease (CKD). Meanwhile, these pathological conditions further aggravate ER stress, creating a rather vicious cycle. Here in this review, we aimed at summarizing and updating the available information on ER stress in CVDs, diabetes mellitus, obesity, and CKD, hoping to offer novel insights for the management of these cardiometabolic comorbidities through regulation of ER stress.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Ferroptosis is indicated in cardiovascular diseases. Given the prominent role of mitophagy in the governance of ferroptosis and our recent finding for FUN14 domain containing 1 (FUNDC1) in obesity anomalies, this study evaluated the impact of FUNDC1 deficiency in high fat diet (HFD)-induced cardiac anomalies. METHODS AND MATERIALS WT and FUNDC1-/- mice were fed HFD (45% calorie from fat) or low fat diet (LFD, 10% calorie from fat) for 10 weeks in the presence of the ferroptosis inhibitor liproxstatin-1 (LIP-1, 10 mg/kg, i.p.). RESULTS RNAseq analysis for differentially expressed genes (DEGs) reported gene ontology term related to ferroptosis and mitophagy in obese rat hearts, which was validated in obese rodent and human hearts. Although 10-week HFD intake did not alter global metabolism, cardiac geometry and function, ablation of FUNDC1 unmasked metabolic derangement, pronounced cardiac remodeling, contractile, intracellular Ca2+ and mitochondrial anomalies upon HFD challenge, the effects of which with exception of global metabolism were attenuated or mitigated by LIP-1. FUNDC1 ablation unmasked HFD-evoked rises in fatty acid synthase ACSL4, necroptosis, inflammation, ferroptosis, mitochondrial O2- production, and mitochondrial injury as well as dampened autophagy and DNA repair enzyme 8-oxoG DNA glycosylase 1 (OGG1) but not apoptosis, the effect of which except ACSL4 and its regulator SP1 was reversed by LIP-1. In vitro data noted that arachidonic acid, an ACSL4 substrate, provoked cytochrome C release, cardiomyocyte defect, and lipid peroxidation under FUNDC1 deficiency, the effects were interrupted by inhibitors of SP1, ACSL4 and ferroptosis. CONCLUSIONS These data suggest that FUNDC1 deficiency sensitized cardiac remodeling and dysfunction with short-term HFD exposure, likely through ACSL4-mediated regulation of ferroptosis.

Abstract
Ferroptosis is a type of regulated cell death driven by iron dependent accumulation of cellular reactive oxygen species (ROS) when glutathione (GSH)-dependent lipid peroxidation repair systems are compromised. Nuclear receptor co-activator 4 (NCOA4)-mediated selective autophagy of ferritin, termed ferritinophagy, involves the regulation of ferroptosis. Emerging evidence has revealed that ferritinophagy and ferroptosis exert a significant role in the occurrence and development of cardiovascular disease. In the present review, we aimed to present a brief overview of ferritinophagy and ferroptosis focusing on the underlying mechanism and regulations involved. We summarize and discuss relevant research progress on the role of ferritinophagy and ferroptosis in cardiovascular diseases accompanied with potential applications of ferritinophagy and ferroptosis modulators in the treatment of ferroptosis-associated cardiovascular diseases.

Abstract
Ferroptosis is a form of regulated cell death modality associated with disturbed iron-homeostasis and unrestricted lipid peroxidation. Ample evidence has depicted an essential role for ferroptosis as either the cause or consequence for human diseases, denoting the likely therapeutic promises for targeting ferroptosis in the preservation of human health. Ferritinophagy, a selective form of autophagy, contributes to the initiation of ferroptosis through degradation of ferritin, which triggers labile iron overload (IO), lipid peroxidation, membrane damage, and cell death. In this review, we will delineate the role of ferritinophagy in ferroptosis, and its underlying regulatory mechanisms, to unveil the therapeutic value of ferritinophagy as a target in the combat of ferroptosis to manage metabolic diseases.

Abstract
Cardiovascular disease (CVD), including heart attack, stroke, heart failure, arrhythmia, and other congenital heart diseases remain the leading cause of morbidity and mortality worldwide. The leading cause of deaths in CVD is attributed to myocardial infarction due to the rupture of atherosclerotic plaque. Atherosclerosis refers a condition when restricted or even blockage of blood flow occurs due to the narrowing of blood vessels as a result of the buildup of plaques composed of oxidized lipids. It is well-established that free radical oxidation of polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFAs) in lipoproteins or cell membranes, termed lipid peroxidation (LPO), plays a significant role in atherosclerosis. LPO products are involved in immune responses and cell deaths in this process, in which previous evidence supports the role of programmed cell death (apoptosis) and necrosis. Ferroptosis is a newly identified form of regulated cell death characterized by the iron-dependent accumulation of lipid hydroperoxides to lethal levels, which exhibits distinct features from apoptosis, necrosis and autophagy in morphology, biochemistry and genetics. Emerging evidence appears to demonstrate that ferroptosis is also involved in CVD. In this review, we summarize the recent progress on ferroptosis in CVD and atherosclerosis, highlighting the role of free radical LPO. The evidence underlying the ferroptosis and challenges in the field will also be critically discussed.

Abstract
Exposure to low ambient temperature imposes great challenge to human health. Epidemiological evidence has noted significantly elevated emergency admission and mortality rate in cold climate in many regions, in particular, adverse events in cardiovascular system. Cold stress is becoming one of the important risk factors for cardiovascular death. Through recent advance in echocardiography and myocardial histological techniques, both clinical and experimental experiments have unveiled that cold stress triggers a variety of pathological and pathophysiological injuries, including ventricular wall thickening, cardiac hypertrophy, elevated blood pressure, decreased cardiac function, and myocardial interstitial fibrosis. In order to examine the potential mechanism of action behind cold stress-induced cardiovascular anomalies, ample biochemical and molecular biological experiments have been conducted to denote a role for mitochondrial injury, intracellular Ca2+ dysregulation, generation of reactive oxygen species (ROS) and other superoxide, altered gene and protein profiles for apoptosis and autophagy, and increased adrenergic receptor sensitivity in cold stress-induced cardiovascular anomalies. These findings suggest that cold stress may damage the myocardium through mitochondrial injury, apoptosis, autophagy, metabolism, oxidative stress, and neuroendocrine pathways. Although the precise nature remains elusive for cold stress-induced cardiovascular dysfunction, endothelin (ET-A) receptor, endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress, transient receptor potential vanilloid, mitochondrial-related protein including NRFs and UCP-2, ROS, Nrf2-Keap1 signaling pathway, Bcl-2/Bax, and lipoprotein lipase (LPL) signaling may all play a pivotal role. For myocardial injury evoked by cold stress, more comprehensive and in-depth mechanisms are warranted to better define the potential therapeutic options for cold stress-associated cardiovascular diseases.
