Abstract
Peroxiredoxin 6 (PRDX6) is a protective biomarker associated with ferroptosis in heart failure (HF). This study investigated the specific mechanism of PRDX6 on doxorubicin (DOX)-induced ferroptosis in HF. Wistar rats and H9c2 cells were induced by DOX to construct HF models. Pathological changes and collagen deposition in myocardium were investigated using HE and Masson staining. PRDX6 levels, indexes of ferroptosis, and JAK2/STAT1 pathway were detected by qRT-PCR, Western blot, and biochemical kits. DOX promoted heart weight/body weight, increased inflammation and collagen deposition, increased PTGS2 and MDA levels, and decreased SLC7A11, GPX4, FTH1, and PRDX6 levels in myocardium. PRDX6 overexpression reduced PTGS2, MDA, Fe2+, and LDH levels, inhibited JAK2 and STAT1 phosphorylation, and increased SLC7A11, GPX4, and FTH1 levels in DOX-added H9c2 cells. RO8191 and erastin reversed the inhibition of PRDX6 on ferroptosis through the JAK2/STAT1 pathway. Overall, PRDX6 alleviated HF by inhibiting DOX-induced ferroptosis through the JAK2/STAT1 pathway inactivation.

Abstract
Objectives This study aims to clarify the effect of ferroptosis by P. gingivalis on periodontal epithelium impairment and potential mechanisms. Materials and methods The expression of epithelial junction proteins (CDH1, OCLN, ZO-1), FTL and GPX4 in healthy and periodontitis tissues was analyzed using bioinformatics analysis and validated in vivo. An in vitro model was constructed to evaluate ferroptosis by mitochondria morphology, content of iron and GSH, and level of lipid peroxidation, FTL, GPX4 and SLC7A11. The iron concentration was changed with iron chelator DFO and iron supplementation FAC. The epithelial impairment was assessed by protein expression. To investigate the mechanism, si-MYB (a negative transcription factor of SLC7A11) and GPX4 inhibitor RSL3 were employed. Results CDH1, OCLN, ZO-1 and GPX4 expression was decreased, while FTL expression was elevated in periodontitis tissues. Infected cells showed ferroptosis change of the mitochondria with higher level of lipid peroxidation, iron, FTL and lower level of GPX4, GSH, SLC7A11. FAC augmented ferroptosis and weakened epithelial junction, while DFO exhibited a counteractive effect. Silencing MYB rescued SLC7A11, GPX4 and epithelial junction proteins, which was hindered by RSL3. Conclusions Our study demonstrated that P. gingivalis weakened the oral epithelial barrier by causing ferroptosis via inhibiting SLC7A11/GSH/GPX4 axis.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES Periodontitis is an immunoinflammatory disease characterized by irreversible periodontal attachment loss and bone destruction. Ferroptosis is a kind of immunogenic cell death that depends on the participation of iron ions and is involved in various inflammatory and immune processes. However, information regarding the relationship between ferroptosis and immunomodulation processes in periodontitis is extremely limited. The purpose of this study was to investigate the correlation between ferroptosis and immune responses in periodontitis. METHODS Gene expression profiles of gingivae were collected from the Gene Expression Omnibus data portal. After detecting differentially expressed ferroptosis-related genes (FRGs), we used univariate logistic regression analysis followed by logistic least absolute shrinkage and selection operator (LASSO) regression to establish a ferroptosis-related classification model in an attempt to accurately distinguish periodontitis gingival tissues from healthy samples. The infiltration level of immunocytes in periodontitis was then assessed through single-sample gene-set enrichment analysis. Subsequently, we screened out immune-related genes by weighted correlation network analysis and protein-protein interaction (PPI) analysis and constructed an immune-related network based on FRGs and immune-related genes. RESULTS A total of 24 differentially expressed FRGs were detected, and an 8-FRG combined signature constituted the classification model. The established model showed outstanding discriminating ability according to the results of receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve analysis. In addition, the periodontitis samples had a higher degree of immunocyte infiltration. Activated B cells had the strongest positive correlation while macrophages had a strong negative correlation with certain FRGs, and we found that XBP1, ALOX5 and their interacting genes might be crucial genes in the immune-related network. CONCLUSIONS The FRG-based classification model had a satisfactory determination ability, which could bring new insights into the pathogenesis of periodontitis. Those genes in the immune-related network, especially hub genes along with XBP1 and ALOX5, would have the potential to serve as promising targets of immunomodulatory treatments for periodontitis.

Abstract
Introduction: Periodontitis is a chronic inflammatory oral disease that destroys soft and hard periodontal support tissues. Multiple cell death modes including apoptosis, necroptosis, pyroptosis, and ferroptosis play a crucial role in the pathogenicity of inflammatory diseases. This study aimed to identify genes associated with ferroptosis, necroptosis, and pyroptosis in different cells present in the periodontium of periodontitis patients. Methods: Gingival tissues' mRNA sequencing dataset GSE173078 of 12 healthy control and 12 periodontitis patients' and the microarray dataset GSE10334 of 63 healthy controls and 64 periodontitis patients' were obtained from Gene Expression Omnibus (GEO) database. A total of 910 differentially expressed genes (DEGs) obtained in GSE173078 were intersected with necroptosis, pyroptosis, and ferroptosis-related genes to obtain the differential genes associated with cell death (DCDEGs), and the expression levels of 21 differential genes associated with cell death were verified with dataset GSE10334. Results: Bioinformatic analysis revealed 21 differential genes associated with cell death attributed to ferroptosis, pyroptosis, and necroptosis in periodontitis patients compared with healthy controls. Gene Ontology (GO) and Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes (KEGG) pathway enrichment analyses revealed that 21 differential genes associated with cell death were related to various cellular and immunological pathways including inflammatory responses, necroptosis, and osteoclast differentiation. Additionally, the single-cell RNA (scRNA) sequencing data GSE171213 of 4 healthy controls and 5 periodontitis patients' periodontal tissue was analyzed to obtain cell clustering and cell types attributed to differential genes associated with cell death. We found that among 21 DCDEGs, SLC2A3, FPR2, TREM1, and IL1B were mainly upregulated in neutrophils present in the periodontium of periodontitis patients. Gene overlapping analysis revealed that IL-1B is related to necroptosis and pyroptosis, TREM1 and FPR2 are related to pyroptosis, and SLC2A3 is related to ferroptosis. Finally, we utilized the CIBERSORT algorithm to assess the association between DCDEGs and immune infiltration phenotypes, based on the gene expression profile of GSE10334. The results revealed that the upregulated SLC2A3, FPR2, TREM1, and IL1B were positively correlated with neutrophil infiltration in the periodontium. Discussion: The findings provide upregulated SLC2A3, FPR2, TREM1, and IL1B in neutrophils as a future research direction on the mode and mechanism of cell death in periodontitis and their role in disease pathogenicity.

Abstract
Periodontitis is a chronic inflammatory disease associated with bacterial biofilm. It is characterized by loss of periodontal support tissue and has long been considered as a "silent disease". Because it is difficult to prevent and has a health impact that can not be ignored, researchers have been focusing on a mechanism-based treatment model. Ferroptosis is an iron-dependent regulatory form of cell death, that directly or indirectly affects glutathione peroxidase through different signaling pathways, resulting in a decrease in cell antioxidant capacity, accumulation of reactive oxygen species and lipid peroxidation, which cause oxidative cell death and tissue damage. Recently, some studies have proven that iron overload, oxidative stress, and lipid peroxidation exist in the process of periodontitis. Based on this, this article reviews the relationship between periodontitis and ferroptosis, in order to provide a theoretical reference for future research on the prevention and treatment of periodontal disease.
