Abstract
Iron is a key element in cell function; however, its excess in iron overload conditions can be harmful through the generation of reactive oxygen species (ROS) and cell oxidative stress. Activity of Na,K-ATPase has been shown to be implicated in cellular iron uptake and iron modulates the Na,K-ATPase function from different tissues. In this study, we determined the effect of iron overload on Na,K-ATPase activity and established the role that isoforms and conformational states of this enzyme has on this effect. Total blood and membrane preparations from erythrocytes (ghost cells), as well as pig kidney and rat brain cortex, and enterocytes cells (Caco-2) were used. In E1-related subconformations, an enzyme activation effect by iron was observed, and in the E2-related subconformations enzyme inhibition was observed. The enzyme's kinetic parameters were significantly changed only in the Na+ curve in ghost cells. In contrast to Na,K-ATPase α2 and α3 isoforms, activation was not observed for the α1 isoform. In Caco-2 cells, which only contain Na,K-ATPase α1 isoform, the FeCl3 increased the intracellular storage of iron, catalase activity, the production of H2O2 and the expression levels of the α1 isoform. In contrast, iron did not affect lipid peroxidation, GSH content, superoxide dismutase and Na,K-ATPase activities. These results suggest that iron itself modulates Na,K-ATPase and that one or more E1-related subconformations seems to be determinant for the sensitivity of iron modulation through a mechanism in which the involvement of the Na, K-ATPase α3 isoform needs to be further investigated.

Abstract
Ferroptosis is a novel characterized form of cell death featured with iron-dependent lipid peroxidation, which is distinct from any known programmed cell death in the biological processes and morphological characteristics. Recent evidence points out that ferroptosis is correlated with numerous metabolic pathways, including iron homeostasis, lipid metabolism, and redox homeostasis, associating with the occurrence and treatment of hematological malignancies, such as multiple myeloma, leukemia, and lymphoma. Nowadays, utilizing ferroptosis as the target to prevent and treat hematological malignancies has become an active and challenging topic of research, and the regulatory network and physiological function of ferroptosis also need to be further elucidated. This review will summarize the recent progress in the molecular regulation of ferroptosis and the physiological roles and therapeutic potential of ferroptosis as the target in hematological malignancies.

Rethinking IRPs/IRE system in neurodegenerative disorders: Looking beyond iron metabolism. Ageing Res Rev 2022; 73:101511.

Abstract
Iron regulatory proteins (IRPs) and iron regulatory element (IRE) systems are well known in the progression of neurodegenerative disorders by regulating iron related proteins. IRPs are also regulated by iron homeostasis. However, an increasing number of studies have suggested a close relationship between the IRPs/IRE system and non-iron-related neurodegenerative disorders. In this paper, we reviewed that the IRPs/IRE system is not only controlled by iron ions, but also regulated by such factors as post-translational modification, oxygen, nitric oxide (NO), heme, interleukin-1 (IL-1), and metal ions. In addition, by regulating the transcription of non-iron related proteins, the IRPs/IRE system functioned in oxidative metabolism, cell cycle regulation, abnormal proteins aggregation, and neuroinflammation. Finally, by emphasizing the multiple regulations of IRPs/IRE system and its potential relationship with non-iron metabolic neurodegenerative disorders, we provided new strategies for disease treatment targeting IRPs/IRE system.

Abstract
Iron is an essential element for human life. However, it is a pro-oxidant agent capable of reacting with hydrogen peroxide. An iron overload can cause cellular changes, such as damage to the plasma membrane leading to cell death. Effects of iron overload in cellular biochemical processes include modulating membrane enzymes, such as the Na, K-ATPase, impairing the ionic transport and inducing irreversible damage to cellular homeostasis. To avoid such damage, cells have an antioxidant system that acts in an integrated manner to prevent oxidative stress. In addition, the cells contain proteins responsible for iron transport and storage, preventing its reaction with other substances during absorption. Moreover, iron is associated with cellular events coordinated by iron-responsive proteins (IRPs) that regulate several cellular functions, including a process of cell death called ferroptosis. This review will address the biochemical aspects of iron overload at the cellular level and its effects on important cellular structures.

Abstract
Iron regulatory protein 1 (IRP-1) is a bifunctional protein involved in iron homeostasis and metabolism. In one state, it binds to specific sequences in the mRNA's of several proteins involved in iron and energy metabolism, thereby influencing their expression post-transcriptionally. In another state it contains a [4Fe-4S] iron-sulfur cofactor and displays aconitase activity in the cytosol. We have shown that this protein binds and hydrolyzes ATP, with kinetic and thermodynamic equilibrium constants that predict saturation with ATP, favouring a non-RNA-binding form at normal cellular ATP levels, and thus pointing to additional function(s) of the protein. Here we show for the first time that the RNA-binding and aconitase forms of IRP-1 can undergo interconversion dependent on the density of cells growing in culture. Thus, in high density confluent cultures, compared with low density, actively proliferating cultures, cytosolic aconitase activity is increased whereas RNA binding activity is diminished. This is accompanied by a decrease in transferrin receptor expression in confluent cells, possibly due to loss of the transcript-stabilizing activity of bound IRP-1. In high density HepG2 cultures, cytosolic glutamate and the ratio of reduced-to-oxidized glutathione were increased. We propose that increased cytosolic aconitase activity in confluent cultures may divert cytosolic citrate away from the fatty acid/membrane synthetic pathways required by dividing cells, into a glutamate-dependent maintenance of cellular macromolecular synthesis. In addition, this may confer additional protection from oxidative stress due to down-regulation of iron acquisition from transferrin and increased glutamate for glutathione synthesis.

Abstract
Iron is an essential but potentially hazardous biometal. Mammalian cells require sufficient amounts of iron to satisfy metabolic needs or to accomplish specialized functions. Iron is delivered to tissues by circulating transferrin, a transporter that captures iron released into the plasma mainly from intestinal enterocytes or reticuloendothelial macrophages. The binding of iron-laden transferrin to the cell-surface transferrin receptor 1 results in endocytosis and uptake of the metal cargo. Internalized iron is transported to mitochondria for the synthesis of haem or iron–sulfur clusters, which are integral parts of several metalloproteins, and excess iron is stored and detoxified in cytosolic ferritin. Iron metabolism is controlled at different levels and by diverse mechanisms. The present review summarizes basic concepts of iron transport, use and storage and focuses on the IRE (iron-responsive element)/IRP (iron-regulatory protein) system, a well known post-transcriptional regulatory circuit that not only maintains iron homoeostasis in various cell types, but also contributes to systemic iron balance.
