Human umbilical cord mesenchymal stem cells alleviate chemotherapy-induced premature ovarian insufficiency mouse model by suppressing ferritinophagy-mediated ferroptosis in granulosa cells. Free Radic Biol Med 2024; 220:1-14. [PMID: 38677487 DOI: 10.1016/j.freeradbiomed.2024.04.229] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/09/2024] [Revised: 04/08/2024] [Accepted: 04/16/2024] [Indexed: 04/29/2024]
Abstract
Primary ovarian insufficiency (POI) in younger women (under 40) manifests as irregular periods, high follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH), and low estradiol (E2), often triggered by chemotherapy. Though mesenchymal stem cell (MSC) therapy shows promise in treating POI, its exact mechanism remains unclear. This study reveals that human umbilical cord-derived MSCs (hUC-MSCs) can protect ovarian granulosa cells (GCs) from cyclophosphamide (CTX)-induced ferroptosis, a form of cell death driven by iron accumulation. CTX, commonly used to induce POI animal model, triggered ferroptosis in GCs, while hUC-MSCs treatment mitigated this effect, both in vivo and in vitro. Further investigations using ferroptosis and autophagy inhibitors suggest that hUC-MSCs act by suppressing ferroptosis in GCs. Interestingly, hUC-MSCs activate a protective antioxidant pathway in GCs via NRF2, a stress-response regulator. Overall, our findings suggest that hUC-MSCs improve ovarian function in CTX-induced POI by reducing ferroptosis in GCs. This study not only clarifies the mechanism behind the benefits of hUC-MSCs but also strengthens the case for their clinical use in treating POI. Additionally, it opens up a new avenue for protecting ovaries from chemotherapy-induced damage by regulating ferroptosis.

Xu M, Zhang D, Yan J. Targeting ferroptosis using Chinese herbal compounds to treat respiratory diseases. PHYTOMEDICINE : INTERNATIONAL JOURNAL OF PHYTOTHERAPY AND PHYTOPHARMACOLOGY 2024; 130:155738. [PMID: 38824825 DOI: 10.1016/j.phymed.2024.155738] [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: 02/01/2024] [Revised: 04/27/2024] [Accepted: 05/14/2024] [Indexed: 06/04/2024]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Respiratory diseases pose a grave threat to human life. Therefore, understanding their pathogenesis and therapeutic strategy is important. Ferroptosis is a novel type of iron-dependent programmed cell death, distinct from apoptosis, necroptosis, and autophagy, characterised by iron, reactive oxygen species, and lipid peroxide accumulation, as well as glutathione (GSH) depletion and GSH peroxidase 4 (GPX4) inactivation. A close association between ferroptosis and the onset and progression of respiratory diseases, including chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, acute lung injury, bronchial asthma, pulmonary fibrosis, and lung cancer, has been reported. Recent studies have shown that traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) compounds exhibit unique advantages in the treatment of respiratory diseases owing to their natural properties and potential efficacy. These compounds can effectively regulate ferroptosis by modulating several key signalling pathways such as system Xc- -GSH-GPX4, NCOA4-mediated ferritinophagy, Nrf2-GPX4, and Nrf2/HO-1, thus playing a positive role in improving respiratory diseases. PURPOSE This comprehensive review systematically outlines the regulatory role of ferroptosis in the onset and progression of respiratory diseases and provides evidence for treating respiratory diseases by targeting ferroptosis with TCM compounds. These insights aim to offer potential remedies for the clinical prevention and treatment of respiratory diseases. STUDY DESIGN AND METHODS We searched scientific databases PubMed, Web of Science, Scopus, and CNKI using keywords such as "ferroptosis","respiratory diseases","chronic obstructive pulmonary disease","bronchial asthma","acute lung injury","pulmonary fibrosis","lung cancer","traditional Chinese medicine","traditional Chinese medicine compound","monomer", and "natural product" to retrieve studies on the therapeutic potential of TCM compounds in ameliorating respiratory diseases by targeting ferroptosis. The retrieved data followed PRISMA criteria (preferred reporting items for systematic review). RESULTS TCM compounds possess unique advantages in treating respiratory diseases, stemming from their natural origins and proven clinical effectiveness. TCM compounds can exert therapeutic effects on respiratory diseases by regulating ferroptosis, which mainly involves modulation of pathways such as system Xc- -GSH-GPX4,NCOA4-mediated ferritinophagy, Nrf2-GPX4, and Nrf2/HO-1. CONCLUSION TCM compounds have demonstrated promising potential in improving respiratory diseases through the regulation of ferroptosis. The identification of specific TCM-related inducers and inhibitors of ferroptosis holds great significance in developing more effective strategies. However, current research remains confined to animal and cellular studies, emphasizing the imperative for further verifications through high-quality clinical data.

Biochim Biophys Acta Mol Basis Dis 2024; 1870:167176. [PMID: 38641013 DOI: 10.1016/j.bbadis.2024.167176] [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: 01/28/2024] [Revised: 03/25/2024] [Accepted: 04/12/2024] [Indexed: 04/21/2024]
Abstract
Ferroptosis is a programmed form of cell death regulated by iron and has been linked to the development of asthma. However, the precise mechanisms driving ferroptosis in asthma remain elusive. To gain deeper insights, we conducted an analysis of nasal epithelial and sputum samples from the GEO database using three machine learning methods. Our investigation identified a pivotal gene, Arachidonate 15-lipoxygenase (ALOX15), associated with ferroptosis in asthma. Through both in vitro and in vivo experiments, we further confirmed the significant role of ALOX15 in ferroptosis in asthma. Our results demonstrate that ferroptosis manifests in an HDM/LPS-induced allergic airway inflammation (AAI) mouse model, mimicking human asthma, and in HDM/LPS-stimulated 16HBE cells. Moreover, we observed an up-regulation of ALOX15 expression in HDM/LPS-induced mice and cells. Notably, silencing ALOX15 markedly decreased HDM/LPS-induced ferroptosis in 16HBE cells. These findings indicate that ferroptosis may be implicated in the onset and progression of asthma, with ALOX15-induced lipid peroxidation raising the susceptibility to ferroptosis in asthmatic epithelial cells.

Polystyrene microplastics induce pulmonary fibrosis by promoting alveolar epithelial cell ferroptosis through cGAS/STING signaling. ECOTOXICOLOGY AND ENVIRONMENTAL SAFETY 2024; 277:116357.

Abstract
Polystyrene microplastics (PS-MPs) are new types of environmental pollutant that have garnered significant attention in recent years since they were found to cause damage to the human respiratory system when they are inhaled. The pulmonary fibrosis is one of the serious consequences of PS-MPs inhalation. However, the impact and underlying mechanisms of PS-MPs on pulmonary fibrosis are not clear. In this study, we studied the potential lung toxicity and PS-MPs-developed pulmonary fibrosis by long-term intranasal inhalation of PS-MPs. The results showed that after exposing to the PS-MPs, the lungs of model mouse had different levels of damage and fibrosis. Meanwhile, exposing to the PS-MPs resulted in a markedly decrease in glutathione (GSH), an increase in malondialdehyde (MDA), and iron overload in the lung tissue of mice and alveolar epithelial cells (AECs). These findings suggested the occurrence of PS-MP-induced ferroptosis. Inhibitor of ferroptosis (Fer-1) had alleviated the PS-MPs-induced ferroptosis. Mechanically, PS-MPs triggered cell ferroptosis and promoted the development of pulmonary fibrosis via activating the cGAS/STING signaling pathway. Inhibition of cGAS/STING with G150/H151 attenuated pulmonary fibrosis after PS-MPs exposure. Together, these data provided novel mechanistic insights of PS-MPs-induced pulmonary fibrosis and a potential therapeutic paradigm.

Abstract
Th2-high asthma is characterized by elevated levels of type 2 cytokines, such as interleukin 13 (IL-13), and its prevalence has been increasing worldwide. Ferroptosis, a recently discovered type of programmed cell death, is involved in the pathological process of Th2-high asthma; however, the underlying mechanisms remain incompletely understood. In this study, we demonstrated that the serum level of malondialdehyde (MDA), an index of lipid peroxidation, positively correlated with IL-13 level and negatively correlated with the predicted forced expiratory volume in 1 s (FEV1%) in asthmatics. Furthermore, we showed that IL-13 facilitates ferroptosis by upregulating of suppressor of cytokine signaling 1 (SOCS1) through analyzing immortalized airway epithelial cells, human airway organoids, and the ovalbumin (OVA)-challenged asthma model. We identified that signal transducer and activator of transcription 6 (STAT6) promotes the transcription of SOCS1 upon IL-13 stimulation. Moreover, SOCS1, an E3 ubiquitin ligase, was found to bind to solute carrier family 7 member 11 (SLC7A11) and catalyze its ubiquitinated degradation, thereby promoting ferroptosis in airway epithelial cells. Last, we found that inhibiting SOCS1 can decrease ferroptosis in airway epithelial cells and alleviate airway hyperresponsiveness (AHR) in OVA-challenged wide-type mice, while SOCS1 overexpression exacerbated the above in OVA-challenged IL-13-knockout mice. Our findings reveal that the IL-13/STAT6/SOCS1/SLC7A11 pathway is a novel molecular mechanism for ferroptosis in Th2-high asthma, confirming that targeting ferroptosis in airway epithelial cells is a potential therapeutic strategy for Th2-high asthma.

Abstract
Aberrant expression of airway epithelial E-cadherin is a key feature of asthma, yet the underlying mechanisms are largely unknown. Ferroptosis is a novel form of regulated cell death involved in asthma pathogenesis. This study was aimed to evaluate the role of ferroptosis and to investigate whether ferroptosis mediates E-cadherin disruption in mixed granulocyte asthma (MGA). Two murine models of MGA were established using toluene diisocyanate (TDI) or ovalbumin with Complete Freund's Adjuvant (OVA/CFA). Specific antagonists of ferroptosis, including Liproxstatin-1 (Lip-1) and Ferrostatin-1 (Fer-1) were given to the mice. The allergen-exposed mice displayed markedly shrunk mitochondria in the airway epithelia, with decreased volume and denser staining accompanied by down-regulated GPX4 as well as up-regulated FTH1 and malondialdehyde, which are markers of ferroptosis. Decreased pulmonary expression of E-cadherin was also observed, with profound loss of membrane E-cadherin in the airway epithelia, as well as increased secretion of sE-cadherin. Treatment with Lip-1 not only showed potent protective effects against the allergen-induced airway hyperresponsiveness and inflammatory responses, but also rescued airway epithelial E-cadherin expression and inhibited the release of sE-cadherin. Taken together, our data demonstrated that ferroptosis mediates airway epithelial E-cadherin dysfunction in MGA.

Abstract
Micro- and nanoplastic particles, including common forms like polyethylene and polystyrene, have been identified as relevant pollutants, potentially causing health problems in living organisms. The mechanisms at the cellular level largely remain to be elucidated. This study aims to visualize nanoplastics in bronchial smooth muscle (BSMC) and small airway epithelial cells (SAEC), and to assess the impact on mitochondrial metabolism. Healthy and asthmatic human BSMC and SAEC in vitro cultures were stimulated with polystyrene nanoplastics (PS-NPs) of 25 or 50 nm size, for 1 or 24 h. Live cell, label-free imaging by holotomography microscopy and mitochondrial respiration and glycolysis assessment were performed. Furthermore, 25 and 50 nm NPs were shown to penetrate SAEC, along with healthy and diseased BSMC, and they impaired bioenergetics and induce mitochondrial dysfunction compared to cells not treated with NPs, including changes in oxygen consumption rate and extracellular acidification rate. NPs pose a serious threat to human health by penetrating airway tissues and cells, and affecting both oxidative and glycolytic metabolism.

Abstract
Heat Shock protein 90 α (HSP90α), an main subtype of chaperone protein HSP90, involves important biological functions such as DNA damage repair, protein modification, innate immunity. However, the potential role of HSP90α in asthma occurrence and development is still unclear. This study aimed to elucidate the underlying mechanism of HSP90α in asthma by focusing on the cGAS-STING-Endoplasmic Reticulum stress pathway in inflammatory airway epithelial cell death (i.e., pyroptosis; inflammatory cell death). To accomplish that, we modeled allergen exposure in C57/6BL mice and bronchial epithelial cells with house dust mite. Protein technologies and immunofluorescence utilized to study the expression of HSP90α, activation of cGAS-STING pathway and pyroptosis. The effect of inhibitors on HDM-exposed mice detected by histological techniques and examination of bronchoalveolar lavage fluid. Results showed that HSP90α promotes asthma inflammation via pyroptosis and activation of the cGAS-STING-ER stress pathway. Treatment with the HSP90 inhibitor tanespimycin (17-AAG) significantly relieved airway inflammation and abrogated the effect of HSP90α on pyroptosis and cGAS-STING-ER stress in vitro and in vivo models of HDM. Further data indicated that up-regulation of HSP90α stabilized STING through interaction, which increased localization of STING on the ER. Activation of STING triggered ER stress and leaded to pyroptosis-related airway inflammation. The finding showed the potential role of pyroptosis caused by dysregulation of HSP90α on airway epithelial cells in allergic inflammation, suggested that targeting HSP90α in airway epithelial cells might prove to be a potential additional treatment strategy for asthma.

Abstract
Macroautophagy/autophagy is a complex degradation process with a dual role in cell death that is influenced by the cell types that are involved and the stressors they are exposed to. Ferroptosis is an iron-dependent oxidative form of cell death characterized by unrestricted lipid peroxidation in the context of heterogeneous and plastic mechanisms. Recent studies have shed light on the involvement of specific types of autophagy (e.g. ferritinophagy, lipophagy, and clockophagy) in initiating or executing ferroptotic cell death through the selective degradation of anti-injury proteins or organelles. Conversely, other forms of selective autophagy (e.g. reticulophagy and lysophagy) enhance the cellular defense against ferroptotic damage. Dysregulated autophagy-dependent ferroptosis has implications for a diverse range of pathological conditions. This review aims to present an updated definition of autophagy-dependent ferroptosis, discuss influential substrates and receptors, outline experimental methods, and propose guidelines for interpreting the results.Abbreviation: 3-MA:3-methyladenine; 4HNE: 4-hydroxynonenal; ACD: accidentalcell death; ADF: autophagy-dependentferroptosis; ARE: antioxidant response element; BH2:dihydrobiopterin; BH4: tetrahydrobiopterin; BMDMs: bonemarrow-derived macrophages; CMA: chaperone-mediated autophagy; CQ:chloroquine; DAMPs: danger/damage-associated molecular patterns; EMT,epithelial-mesenchymal transition; EPR: electronparamagnetic resonance; ER, endoplasmic reticulum; FRET: Försterresonance energy transfer; GFP: green fluorescent protein;GSH: glutathione;IF: immunofluorescence; IHC: immunohistochemistry; IOP, intraocularpressure; IRI: ischemia-reperfusion injury; LAA: linoleamide alkyne;MDA: malondialdehyde; PGSK: Phen Green™ SK;RCD: regulatedcell death; PUFAs: polyunsaturated fatty acids; RFP: red fluorescentprotein;ROS: reactive oxygen species; TBA: thiobarbituricacid; TBARS: thiobarbituric acid reactive substances; TEM:transmission electron microscopy.

Ferroptotic alveolar epithelial type II cells drive T H2 and T H17 mixed asthma triggered by birch pollen allergen Bet v 1. Cell Death Discov 2024; 10:96.

Abstract
Asthma is a common allergic disease characterized by airway hypersensitivity and airway remodeling. Ferroptosis is a regulated death marked by iron accumulation and lipid peroxidation. Several environmental pollutants and allergens have been shown to cause ferroptosis in epithelial cells, but the relationship between birch pollinosis and ferroptosis in asthma is poorly defined. Here, for the first time, we have identified ferroptosis of type II alveolar epithelial cells in mice with Bet v 1-induced asthma. Further analysis revealed that treatment with ferrostatin-1 reduced TH2/TH17-related inflammation and alleviated epithelial damage in mice with Bet v 1-induced asthma. In addition, ACSL4-knocked-down A549 cells are more resistant to Bet v 1-induced ferroptosis. Analysis of clinical samples verified higher serum MDA and 4-HNE concentrations compared to healthy individuals. We demonstrate that birch pollen allergen Bet v 1 induces ferroptosis underlaid TH2 and TH17 hybrid asthma. Lipid peroxidation levels can be considered as a biomarker of asthma severity, and treatment with a specific ferroptosis inhibitor could be a novel therapeutic strategy.

Cell Commun Signal 2024; 22:146.

Abstract
Paraquat (PQ) is an irreplaceable insecticide in many countries for the advantage of fast-acting and broad-spectrum. However, PQ was classified as the most prevailing poisoning substance for suicide with no specific antidote. Therefore, it is imperative to develop more effective therapeutic agents for the treatment of PQ poisoning. In the present study, both the RNA-Seq and the application of various cell death inhibitors reflected that ferroptosis exerts a crucial regulatory role in PQ poisoning. Moreover, we found PQ strengthens lipid peroxidation as evidenced by different experimental approaches. Of note, pretreatment of iron chelation agent DFO could ameliorate the ferroptotic cell death and alleviate the ferroptosis-related events. Mechanistically, PQ treatment intensively impaired mitochondrial homeostasis, enhanced phosphorylation of AMPK, accelerated the autophagy flux and triggered the activation of Nuclear receptor coactivator 4-ferritin heavy chain (NCOA4-FTH) axis. Importantly, the activation of autophagy was observed prior to the degradation of ferritin, and inhibition of autophagy could inhibit the accumulation of iron caused by the ferritinophagy process. Genetic and pharmacological inhibition of ferritinophagy could alleviate the lethal oxidative events, and rescue the ferroptotic cell death. Excitingly, in the mouse models of PQ poisoning, both the administration of DFO and adeno-associated virus-mediated FTH overexpression significantly reduced PQ-induced ferroptosis and improved the pathological characteristics of pulmonary fibrosis. In summary, the current work provides an in-depth study on the mechanism of PQ intoxication, describes a framework for the further understanding of ferroptosis in PQ-associated biological processes, and demonstrates modulation of iron metabolism may act as a promising therapeutic agent for the management of PQ toxicity.

Abstract
Environmental pollutants have been recognized for their ability to induce various adverse outcomes in both the environment and human health, including inflammation, apoptosis, necrosis, pyroptosis, and autophagy. Understanding these biological mechanisms has played a crucial role in risk assessment and management efforts. However, the recent identification of ferroptosis as a form of programmed cell death has emerged as a critical mechanism underlying pollutant-induced toxicity. Numerous studies have demonstrated that fine particulates, heavy metals, and organic substances can trigger ferroptosis, which is closely intertwined with lipid, iron, and amino acid metabolism. Given the growing evidence linking ferroptosis to severe diseases such as heart failure, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, liver injury, Parkinson's disease, Alzheimer's disease, and cancer, it is imperative to investigate the role of pollutant-induced ferroptosis. In this review, we comprehensively analyze various pollutant-induced ferroptosis pathways and intricate signaling molecules and elucidate their integration into the driving and braking axes. Furthermore, we discuss the potential hazards associated with pollutant-induced ferroptosis in various organs and four representative animal models. Finally, we provide an outlook on future research directions and strategies aimed at preventing pollutant-induced ferroptosis. By enhancing our understanding of this novel form of cell death and developing effective preventive measures, we can mitigate the adverse effects of environmental pollutants and safeguard human and environmental health.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Mechanical ventilation, a critical support strategy for individuals enduring severe respiratory failure and general anesthesia, paradoxically engenders ventilator-induced lung injury (VILI). Ferrostatin-1 mitigates lung injury via ferroptosis inhibition, yet the specific ferroptosis genes contributing significantly to VILI remain obscure. METHODS Leveraging the Gene Expression Omnibus database, we acquired VILI-associated datasets and identified differentially expressed genes (DEGs). To identify the hub genes, we constructed a protein-protein interaction network and used three parameters from CytoHubba. Consequently, we identified hub genes and ferroptosis genes as ferroptosis hub genes for VILI (VFHGs). We conducted enrichment analysis and established receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curves for VFHGs. Subsequently, to confirm the correctness of the VFHGs, control group mice and VILI mouse models, as well as external dataset validation, were established. For further research, a gene-miRNA network was established. Finally, the CIBERSORT algorithm was used to fill the gap in the immune infiltration changes in the lung during VILI. RESULTS We identified 64 DEGs and 4 VFHGs (Il6,Ptgs2,Hmox1 and Atf3) closely related to ferroptosis. ROC curves demonstrated the excellent diagnostic performance of VFHGs in VILI. PCR and external dataset validation of the VILI model demonstrated the accuracy of VFHGs. Subsequently, the gene-miRNA network was successfully established. Ultimately, an Immune cell infiltration analysis associated with VILI was generated. CONCLUSIONS The results emphasize the importance of 4 VFHGs and their involvement in ferroptosis in VILI, confirming their potential as diagnostic biomarkers for VILI.

Abstract
Rhizoma Dioscoreae Nipponicae (RDN) is a traditional Chinese medicine that widely applied in the treatment of human diseases. This study aims to explore the therapeutic potential of RDN in asthma and the underlying mechanisms. A mouse model of asthma was established by the stimulation of ovalbumin (OVA). HE staining was performed to detect the pathological injuries of tracheal tissues. The protein expression of collagen I, FN1, α-SMA (airway remodeling markers), and p-p38 (a marker of the p38 MAPK pathway) were detected by Western blot. Eosinophils were then isolated from the model mice. Cell viability and ROS level were measured by CCK-8 and Flow cytometry, respectively. The mRNA expression of GPX4 and ACSL4 (ferroptosis markers) in eosinophils were measured by qRT-PCR. RDN significantly reduced the numbers of total cells and eosnophils in bronchoalveolar lavage fluid (BALF), inhibited inflammatory cell infiltration, and down-regulated remodeling markers (Collagen I, FN1, and α-SMA) in OVA-induced mice. The p38 MAPK pathway was blocked by the intervention of RDN in the model mice, and its blocking weakens the poor manifestations of OVA-induced asthma. In addition, RDN induced the ferroptosis of eosnophils both in vitro and in vivo. Blocking of the p38 MAPK pathway also enhanced the ferroptosis of eosnophils in vitro, evidenced by the decreased cell viability and GPX4 expression, and increased ROS level and ACSL4 expression. RDN induced the ferroptosis of eosinophils through inhibiting the p38 MAPK pathway, contributing to the remission of asthma.

Comparison with gastric cancer-associated genes reveals the role of ferroptosis-related genes in eosinophils of asthma patients: A bioinformatic study. Medicine (Baltimore) 2023; 102:e35002. [PMID: 37832131 PMCID: PMC10578675 DOI: 10.1097/md.0000000000035002] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/06/2023] [Accepted: 08/08/2023] [Indexed: 10/15/2023] Open
Abstract
Ferroptosis-inducing agents (FIAs) induced lipid-peroxidation-independent ferroptosis in eosinophils, thus ameliorating airway inflammation in asthmatic mice. Differences in ferroptosis-related genes (FerrGs) between eosinophils and cells in which FIAs induce canonical ferroptosis are supposed to contribute to this noncanonical ferroptosis but remain unclear. This study aims to explore these differences. This study used gastric cancer cells (GCCs) in stomach adenocarcinoma as the representative of cells in which FIAs induce canonical ferroptosis. FerrGs in Ferroptosis Database V2 respectively intersected with differentially expressed genes (DEGs) of eosinophils (E-MTAB-4660 dataset) and GCCs (GEPIA2 Stomach adenocarcinoma dataset) to obtain original ferroptosis DEGs (FerrDEGs). Then, they were subjected to Venn analysis to identify FerrDEGs shared by them and FerrDEGs exclusively expressed in eosinophils or GCCs. Identified genes were subjected to functional enrichment analysis, protein-protein interactions analysis, Hub genes analysis, and construction of the LncRNA-mediated ceRNA network. Sixty-six original FerrDEGs in eosinophils and 110 original FerrDEGs in GCCs were obtained. Venn analysis identified that eosinophils and GCCs shared 19 FerrDEGs that presented opposite expression directions and were involved in the ferroptosis pathway. Four upregulated and 20 downregulated FerrDEGs were exclusively expressed in eosinophils and GCCs, respectively. The former were enriched only in glycerolipid metabolism, while the latter were not enriched in pathways. Forty downregulated and 68 upregulated FerrDEGs were solely expressed in eosinophils and GCCs, respectively. The former was associated with the FoxO signaling pathway; the latter was related to glutathione metabolism and they were all implicated in autophagy. PPI analysis shows that the top 10 Hub genes of 66 original FerrDEGs and 44 exclusive FerrDEGs in eosinophils shared 9 genes (STAT3, NFE2L2, MAPK8, PTEN, MAPK3, TLR4, SIRT1, BECN1, and PTGS2) and they were also involved in the FoxO signaling pathway and autophagy pathway. Among them, PTEN is involved in forming a ceRNA network containing 3 LncRNAs, 3 miRNAs and 3 mRNAs. In contrast to FerrGs in cells in which FIAs induce canonical ferroptosis, the FerrGs in eosinophils differ in expression and in the regulation of ferroptosis, FoxO signaling pathway, and autophagy. It lays the groundwork for targeted induction of eosinophils lipid-peroxidation-independent ferroptosis in asthma.

Abstract
Inflammation is the defense mechanism of the immune system against harmful stimuli such as pathogens, toxic compounds, damaged cells, radiation, etc., and is characterized by tissue redness, swelling, heat generation, pain, and loss of tissue functions. Inflammation is essential in the recruitment of immune cells at the site of infection, which not only aids in the elimination of the cause, but also initiates the healing process. However, prolonged inflammation often brings about several chronic inflammatory disorders; hence, a balance between the pro- and anti-inflammatory responses is essential in order to eliminate the cause while producing the least damage to the host. A growing body of evidence indicates that extracellular vesicles (EVs) play a major role in cell-cell communication via the transfer of bioactive molecules in the form of proteins, lipids, DNA, RNAs, miRNAs, etc., between the cells. The present review provides a brief classification of the EVs followed by a detailed description of how EVs contribute to the pathogenesis of various inflammation-associated diseases and their implications as a therapeutic measure. The latter part of the review also highlights how EVs act as a bridging entity in blood coagulation disorders and associated inflammation. The findings illustrated in the present review may open a new therapeutic window to target EV-associated inflammatory responses, thereby minimizing the negative outcomes.

Abstract
Purpose Asthma is a chronic inflammatory airway disease involving multiple mechanisms, of which ferroptosis is a form of programmed cell death. Recent studies have shown that ferroptosis may play a crucial role in the pathogenesis of asthma, but no specific ferroptosis gene has been found in asthma, and the exact mechanism is still unclear. The present study aimed to screen ferroptosis genes associated with asthma and find therapeutic targets, in order to contribute a new clue for the diagnosis and therapy of asthma. Methods Ferroptosis-related differentially expressed genes (FR-DEGs) in asthma were selected by the GSE41861, GSE43696 and ferroptosis datasets. Next, the FR-DEGs were subjected by GO and KEGG enrichment, and the mRNA-miRNA network was constructed. Then, GSEA and GSVA enrichment analysis and Immune infiltration analysis were performed, followed by targeted drug prediction. Finally, the expression of FR-DEGs was confirmed using GSE63142 dataset and RT-PCR assay. Results We found 13 FR-DEGs by the GSE41861, GSE43696 and ferroptosis database. Functional enrichment analysis revealed that the 13 FR-DEGs were enriched in oxidative stress, immune response, ferroptosis, lysosome, necrosis, apoptosis etc. Moreover, our results revealed the mRNA-miRNA network of the FR-DEGs and identified candidate drugs. Also, immune infiltration revealed that ELAVL1, CREB5, CBR1 and NR1D2 are associated with the immune cells and may be potential targets in asthma. Finally, 10 FR-DEGs were validated by the GSE63142 database. It was verified that 7 FR-DEGs were differentially expressed by collecting asthma patients and healthy controls. Conclusion This study ultimately identified 7 FR-DEGs for the diagnosis and therapy of asthma. These 7 FR-DEGs contribute to oxidative stress and immune responses. This study provides potential therapeutic targets and biomarkers for asthma patients, shedding further light on the pathogenesis of asthma as well as providing new insights into the treatment of asthma.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Asthma is a common chronic respiratory disease worldwide. Recent studies have revealed the critical effects of the ceRNA network and ferroptosis on patients with asthma. Thus, this study aimed to explore the potential ferroptosis-related ceRNA network, investigate the immune cell infiltration level in asthma through integrated analysis of public asthma microarray datasets, and find suitable diagnostic biomarkers for asthma. METHODS First, three asthma-related datasets which were downloaded from the Gene Expression Omnibus (GEO) database were integrated into one pooled dataset after correcting for batch effects. Next, we screened differentially expressed lncRNAs (DElncRNAs) between patients and healthy subjects, constructed a ceRNA network using the StarBase database and screened ferroptosis-related genes from the predicted target mRNAs for Disease Ontology (DO), Gene Ontology (GO), and Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes (KEGG) enrichment analyses. We also performed Gene Set Enrichment Analysis (GSEA) and Gene Set Variation Analysis (GSVA) on the batch effect-corrected mRNA expression profile. Then, Least Absolute Shrinkage and Selection Operator (LASSO) regression was used to screen potential diagnostic biomarkers, and the diagnostic efficacy was assessed using a receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve. Finally, we determined the proportion of 22 immune cells in patients with asthma using CIBERSORT and investigated the correlation between key RNAs and immune cells. RESULTS We obtained 19 DElncRNAs, of which only LUCAT1 and MIR222HG had corresponding target miRNAs. The differentially expressed ferroptosis-related genes were involved in multiple programmed cell death-related pathways. We also found that the mRNA expression profile was primarily enriched in innate immune system responses. We screened seven candidate diagnostic biomarkers for asthma using LASSO regression (namely, BCL10, CD300E, IER2, MMP13, OAF, TBC1D3, and TMEM151A), among which the area under the curve (AUC) value for CD300E and IER2 were 0.722 and 0.856, respectively. Finally, we revealed the infiltration ratio of different immune cells in asthma and found a correlation between LUCAT1, MIR222HG, CD300E, and IER2 with some immune cells. CONCLUSION This study explored a potential lncRNA-miRNA-mRNA regulatory network and its underlying diagnostic biomarkers (CD300E and IER2) in asthma and identified the immune cells most associated with them, providing possible diagnostic markers and immunotherapeutic targets for asthma.

Abstract
Iron is an essential trace element that is involved in a variety of physiological processes. Ferritinophagy is selective autophagy mediated by nuclear receptor coactivator 4 (NCOA4), which regulates iron homeostasis in the body. Upon iron depletion or starvation, ferritinophagy is activated, releasing large amounts of Fe2+ and increasing reactive oxygen species (ROS), leading to ferroptosis. This plays a significant role in the etiopathogenesis of many diseases, such as metabolic diseases, neurodegenerative diseases, infectious diseases, tumors, cardiomyopathy, and ischemia-reperfusion ischemia-reperfusion injury. Here, we first review the regulation and functions of ferritinophagy and then describe its involvement in different diseases, with hopes of providing new understanding and insights into iron metabolism and iron disorder-related diseases and the therapeutic opportunity for targeting ferritinophagy.

Abstract
It has been reported that airway epithelial cells and ferroptosis have certain effect on asthma. However, the action mechanism of ferroptosis-related genes in airway epithelial cells of asthmatic patients is still unclear. Firstly, the study downloaded the GSE43696 training set, GSE63142 validation set and GSE164119 (miRNA) dataset from the gene expression omnibus database. 342 ferroptosis-related genes were downloaded from the ferroptosis database. Moreover, differentially expressed genes (DEGs) between asthma and control samples in the GSE43696 dataset were screened by differential analysis. Consensus clustering analysis was performed on asthma patients to classify clusters, and differential analysis was performed on clusters to obtain inter-cluster DEGs. Asthma-related module was screened by weighted gene co-expression network analysis. Then, DEGs between asthma and control samples, inter-cluster DEGs and asthma-related module were subjected to venn analysis for obtaining candidate genes. The last absolute shrinkage and selection operator and support vector machines were respectively applied to the candidate genes to screen for feature genes, and functional enrichment analysis was performed. Finally, a competition endogenetic RNA network was constructed and drug sensitivity analysis was conducted. There were 438 DEGs (183 up-regulated and 255 down-regulated) between asthma and control samples. 359 inter-cluster DEGs (158 up-regulated and 201 down-regulated) were obtained by screening. Then, the black module was significantly and strongly correlated with asthma. The venn analysis yielded 88 candidate genes. 9 feature genes (NAV3, ITGA10, SYT4, NOX1, SNTG2, RNF182, UPK1B, POSTN, SHISA2) were screened and they were involved in proteasome, dopaminergic synapse etc. Besides, 4 mRNAs, 5 miRNAs, and 2 lncRNAs collectively formed competition endogenetic RNA regulatory network, which included RNF182-hsa-miR-455-3p-LINC00319 and so on. The predicted therapeutic drug network map contained NAV3-bisphenol A and other relationship pairs. The study investigated the potential molecular mechanisms of NAV3, ITGA10, SYT4, NOX1, SNTG2, RNF182, UPK1B, POSTN, SHISA2 in airway epithelial cells of asthmatic patients through bioinformatics analysis, providing a reference for the research of asthma and ferroptosis.

Abstract
Background: Asthma was a chronic inflammatory illness driven by complicated genetic regulation and environmental exposure. The complex pathophysiology of asthma has not been fully understood. Ferroptosis was involved in inflammation and infection. However, the effect of ferroptosis on asthma was still unclear. The study was designed to identify ferroptosis-related genes in asthma, providing potential therapeutic targets. Methods: We conducted a comprehensive analysis combined with WGCNA, PPI, GO, KEGG, and CIBERSORT methods to identify ferroptosis-related genes that were associated with asthma and regulated the immune microenvironment in GSE147878 from the GEO. The results of this study were validated in GSE143303 and GSE27066, and the hub genes related to ferroptosis were further verified by immunofluorescence and RT-qPCR in the OVA asthma model. Results: 60 asthmatics and 13 healthy controls were extracted for WGCNA. We found that genes in the black module (r = -0.47, p < 0.05) and magenta module (r = 0.51, p < 0.05) were associated with asthma. CAMKK2 and CISD1 were discovered to be ferroptosis-related hub genes in the black and magenta module, separately. We found that CAMKK2 and CISD1 were mainly involved in the CAMKK-AMPK signaling cascade, the adipocytokine signaling pathway, the metal cluster binding, iron-sulfur cluster binding, and 2 iron, 2 sulfur cluster binding in the enrichment analysis, which was strongly correlated with the development of ferroptosis. We found more infiltration of M2 macrophages and less Tregs infiltration in the asthma group compared to healthy controls. In addition, the expression levels of CISD1 and Tregs were negatively correlated. Through validation, we found that CAMKK2 and CISD1 expression were upregulated in the asthma group compared to the control group and would inhibit the occurrence of ferroptosis. Conclusion: CAMKK2 and CISD1 might inhibit ferroptosis and specifically regulate asthma. Moreover, CISD1 might be tied to the immunological microenvironment. Our results could be useful to provide potential immunotherapy targets and prognostic markers for asthma.

Abstract
Autophagy is an evolutionarily conserved cellular system crucial for cellular homeostasis that protects cells from a broad range of internal and extracellular stresses. Autophagy decreases metabolic load and toxicity by removing damaged cellular components. Environmental contaminants, particularly industrial substances, can influence autophagic flux by enhancing it as a protective response, preventing it, or converting its protective function into a pro-cell death mechanism. Environmental toxic materials are also notorious for their tendency to bioaccumulate and induce pathophysiological vulnerability. Many environmental pollutants have been found to influence stress which increases autophagy. Increasing autophagy was recently shown to improve stress resistance and reduce genetic damage. Moreover, suppressing autophagy or depleting its resources either increases or decreases toxicity, depending on the circumstances. The essential process of selective autophagy is utilized by mammalian cells in order to eliminate particulate matter, nanoparticles, toxic metals, and smoke exposure without inflicting damage on cytosolic components. Moreover, cigarette smoke and aging are the chief causes of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD)-emphysema; however, the disease's molecular mechanism is poorly known. Therefore, understanding the impacts of environmental exposure via autophagy offers new approaches for risk assessment, protection, and preventative actions which will counter the harmful effects of environmental contaminants on human and animal health.

Abstract
Ferroptosis is a regulatory cell death characterized by intracellular iron accumulation and lipid peroxidation that leads to oxidative stress. Many signaling pathways such as iron metabolism, lipid metabolism, and amino acid metabolism precisely regulate the process of ferroptosis. Ferroptosis is involved in a variety of lung diseases, such as acute lung injury, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) and pulmonary fibrosis. Increasing studies suggest that ferroptosis is involved in the development of asthma. Ferroptosis plays an important role in asthma. Iron metabolism disorders, lipid peroxidation, amino acid metabolism disorders lead to the occurrence of ferroptosis in airway epithelial cells, and then aggravate clinical symptoms in asthmatic patients. Moreover, several regulators of ferroptosis are involved in the pathogenesis of asthma, such as Nrf2, heme oxygenase-1, mevalonate pathway, and ferroptosis inhibitor protein 1. Importantly, ferroptosis inhibitors improve asthma. Thus, the pathogenesis of ferroptosis and its contribution to the pathogenesis of asthma help us better understand the occurrence and development of asthma, and provide new directions in asthma treatment. This article aimed to review the role and mechanism of ferroptosis in asthma, describing the relationship between ferroptosis and asthma based on signaling pathways and related regulatory factors. At the same time, we summarized current observations of ferroptosis in eosinophils, airway epithelial cells, and airway smooth muscle cells in asthmatic patients.
