Abstract
miR-135 is a highly conserved miRNA in mammals and includes miR-135a and miR-135b. Recent studies have shown that miR-135b is a key regulatory factor in cardio-cerebrovascular diseases. It is involved in regulating the pathological process of myocardial infarction, myocardial ischemia/reperfusion injury, cardiac hypertrophy, atrial fibrillation, diabetic cardiomyopathy, atherosclerosis, pulmonary hypertension, cerebral ischemia/reperfusion injury, Parkinson's disease, and Alzheimer's disease. Obviously, miR-135b is an emerging player in cardio-cerebrovascular diseases and is expected to be an important target for the treatment of cardio-cerebrovascular diseases. However, the crucial role of miR-135b in cardio-cerebrovascular diseases and its underlying mechanism of action has not been reviewed. Therefore, in this review, we aimed to comprehensively summarize the role of miR-135b and the signaling pathway mediated by miR-135b in cardio-cerebrovascular diseases. Drugs targeting miR-135b for the treatment of diseases and related patents, highlighting the importance of this target and its utility as a therapeutic target for cardio-cerebrovascular diseases, have been discussed.

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.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Following our recent finding that Ucp2 knockout promotes ferroptosis, we aimed to examine whether UCP2 alleviates myocardial ischemia/reperfusion injury (MI/RI) by inhibiting ferroptosis. METHODS The left anterior descending coronary arteries of wild-type and Ucp2-/- C57BL/6 mice were ligated for 30 min and reperfused for 2 h to establish an MI/RI model. The effects of UCP2 on ferroptosis and MI/RI were determined by echocardiography, 2,3,5-triphenylttrazolium chloride staining, hematoxylin-eosin staining, Masson's trichrome staining, Sirius red staining, and analysis of myocardial injury markers and ferroptosis indicators. Ferrostatin-1 (Fer-1) and erastin (Era) were used to investigate whether UCP2 alleviated MI/RI by inhibiting ferroptosis and the molecular mechanism. RESULTS UCP2 was upregulated in the MI/RI model in WT mice. Deletion of Ucp2 exacerbated ferroptosis, altered the expression levels of multiple ferroptosis-related genes, and significantly exacerbated MI/RI. Knockout of Ucp2 promoted ferroptosis induced by Era and inhibited the antiferroptotic effects of Fer-1. Knockout of Ucp2 activated the p53/TfR1 pathway to exacerbate ferroptosis. CONCLUSION Our results showed that UCP2 inhibited ferroptosis in MI/RI, which might be related to regulation of the p53/TfR1 pathway.

Abstract
Ferroptosis plays an important role in the early stage of myocardial ischemia/reperfusion (MI/R) injury, which is closely associated with the antioxidant damage of mitochondrial cysteine (Cys)/glutathione (GSH)/glutathione peroxidase 4 (GPX4) axis. Visualization of Cys and GSH in mitochondria is meaningful to value ferroptosis and further contributes to understanding and preventing MI/R injury. Herein a mitochondria-targetable thiols fluorescent probe (MTTP) was designed and synthesized based on sulfonyl benzoxadiazole (SBD) chromophore with a triphenylphosphine unit as the mitochondria-targeted functional group. Cys and GSH can be differentiated by MTTP with two distinguishable emission bands (583 nm and 520 nm) through the controllable aromatic substitution-rearrangement reaction. Importantly, MTTP is capable of monitoring ferroptosis and its inhibition by measuring mitochondrial Cys and GSH. MTTP was also employed to non-invasively detect ferroptosis during oxygen and glucose deprivation/reoxygenation (OGD/R)-induced MI/R injury in H9C2 cells. In a word, MTTP provides a visual tool that can simultaneously detect Cys and GSH to monitor ferroptosis processes during MI/R injury, which helps for more deeper understanding of the role of ferroptosis in MI/R injury-related diseases.

J Biochem Mol Toxicol 2024; 38:e23711. [PMID: 38605443 DOI: 10.1002/jbt.23711] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/05/2023] [Revised: 02/16/2024] [Accepted: 03/29/2024] [Indexed: 04/13/2024]
Abstract
Ischemia‒reperfusion (I/R) is a common complication in the clinical treatment of acute myocardial infarction (MI), in which cardiomyocytes play a pivotal role in the recovery of cardiac function after reperfusion injury. The expression of numerous circular ribonucleic acids (circRNAs) is disrupted in I/R-induced cardiac damage, but the potential role of circRNAs in I/R damage has not been fully elucidated. The purpose of the present study was to clarify the biological action and molecular mechanism of circRNA 002166 (also termed circCL2L13) in postmyocardial I/R. Oxygen-glucose deprivation/reoxygenation (OGD/R) in an in vivo model was performed to simulate I/R damage. real-time polymerase chain reaction analysis was also conducted to evaluate the relationships of the SOD1, SOD2, NRF2, HO1 and GPX4 indicators with oxidative stress injury. TUNEL immunofluorescence was used to evaluate the degree of cardiomyocyte apoptosis in the different treatment groups. The circBCL2L13 level was markedly upregulated in myocardial tissues from a mouse I/R model. Overexpression of circBCL2L13 markedly attenuated the expression of oxidative stress-related genes and apoptosis in OGD/R-induced cardiomyocytes. A mechanistic study revealed that circBCL2L13 functions as a ceRNA for miR-1246 and modulates paternally expressed gene 3 (PEG3). Eventually, circBCL2L13 was proven to regulate PEG3 by targeting miR-1246, thereby protecting against OGD/R-induced cardiomyocyte oxidative damage and apoptosis. In conclusion, our study confirmed that the circBCL2L13/miR-1246/PEG3 axis suppressed the progression of OGD/R injury in cardiomyocytes, which might lead to new therapeutic strategies for cardiac I/R injury.

Abstract
Cardiovascular diseases (CVDs) are the main diseases that endanger human health, and their risk factors contribute to high morbidity and a high rate of hospitalization. Cell death is the most important pathophysiology in CVDs. As one of the cell death mechanisms, ferroptosis is a new form of regulated cell death (RCD) that broadly participates in CVDs (such as myocardial infarction, heart transplantation, atherosclerosis, heart failure, ischaemia/reperfusion (I/R) injury, atrial fibrillation, cardiomyopathy (radiation-induced cardiomyopathy, diabetes cardiomyopathy, sepsis-induced cardiac injury, doxorubicin-induced cardiac injury, iron overload cardiomyopathy, and hypertrophic cardiomyopathy), and pulmonary arterial hypertension), involving in iron regulation, metabolic mechanism and lipid peroxidation. This article reviews recent research on the mechanism and regulation of ferroptosis and its relationship with the occurrence and treatment of CVDs, aiming to provide new ideas and treatment targets for the clinical diagnosis and treatment of CVDs by clarifying the latest progress in CVDs research.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Hepatitis B virus (HBV) infection is a public health problem that seriously threatens human health. This study aimed to investigate the clinical significance of glutathione peroxidase 4(GPX4) in the occurrence and development of chronic hepatitis B (CHB). METHODS A total of 169 participants including 137 patients with CHB and 32 healthy controls (HCs) were recruited. We detected the expression of GPX4 and stimulator of interferon genes (STING) in peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs) by real-time quantitative polymerase chain reaction (RT-qPCR). The methylation level of GPX4 gene promoter in PBMCs was detected by TaqMan probe-based quantitative methylation-specific PCR (MethyLight). Enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) was performed to detect the serum levels of GPX4, IFN-β, oxidative stress (OS) related molecules, and pro-inflammatory cytokines. RESULTS The expression levels of GPX4 in PBMCs and serum of CHB patients were lower than those of HCs, but the methylation levels of GPX4 promoter were higher than those of HCs, especially in patients at the immune tolerance phase. STING mRNA expression levels in PBMCs and serum IFN-β levels of patients at the immune activation phase and reactivation phase of CHB were higher than those at other clinical phases of CHB and HCs. GPX4 mRNA expression level and methylation level in PBMCs from patients with CHB had a certain correlation with STING and IFN-β expression levels. In addition, the methylation level of the GPX4 promoter in PBMCs from patients with CHB was correlated with molecules associated with OS and inflammation. CONCLUSIONS GPX4 may play an important role in the pathogenesis and immune tolerance of CHB, which may provide new ideas for the functional cure of CHB.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Growth and differentiation factor 15 (GDF15) has been proved to regulate the process of Myocardial ischemia-reperfusion injury (MIRI), which is a serious complication of reperfusion therapy. The present study aimed to explore if GDF15 could regulate the MIRI-induced ferroptosis. METHOD MIRI animal model was established by ligating the left anterior descending coronary artery. Oxygen-glucose deprivation/reoxygenation (OGD/R) cell model was established to imitate MIRI in vitro. The indicators of ferroptosis including mitochondrial damage, GPX4, FACL4, XCT4, and oxidative stress markers were evaluated. RESULTS Overexpression of GDF15 greatly inhibited MIRI, improved cardiac function, alleviated MIRI-induced ferroptosis. pc-DNA-GDF15 significantly inhibited the oxidative stress condition and inflammation response. The OGD/R-induced ferroptosis was also inhibited by pc-DNA-GDF15. CONCLUSION We proved that the MIRI-induced ferroptosis could by inhibited by pc-DNA-GDF15 through evaluating mitochondrial damage, MDA, GSH, and GSSG. Our research provides a new insight for the prevention and treatment of MIRI, and a new understanding for the mechanism of MIRI-induced ferroptosis.

Abstract
Ferroptosis is a new way of cell death which is reported to participate in the pathology of myocardial ischemia-reperfusion (MI/R) injury, but it's mechanism remains unclear. The present investigation is to study the emerging role of long non-coding RNA (lncRNA) regulator of reprogramming (ROR) in cardiomyocyte ferroptosis after hypoxia/reoxygenation (H/R) administration. RT-qPCR and/or Western blot methods were performed to examine the gene/or protein levels, and CCK-8, ELISA, and DCFH-DA staining determined the cellular viability and ferroptosis. Dual-luciferase and RNA immunoprecipitation were applied to verify molecular interaction. LncRNA ROR and miR-769-5p were overexpressed and reduced in blood samples from MI patients and H/R-treated AC16 cells, respectively. Mechanistically, lncROR sponged to miR-769-5p, thus upregulating CBX7 expression. Functional experiments presented that lncRNA ROR silence mitigated H/R-stimulated inflammatory damage, oxidative stress, and ferroptosis in AC16 cells, whereas these roles could be reversed by co-downregulation of miR-769-5p or co-overexpression of CBX7. These data uncovered that lncRNA ROR prevented against H/R-induced cardiomyocyte ferroptosis by modulating miR-769-5p/CBX7 signaling, emphasizing the therapeutic value of lncRNA ROR in MI/R injury.

Zhang X, Sun J, Wang J, Meng T, Yang J, Zhou Y. The role of ferroptosis in diabetic cardiovascular diseases and the intervention of active ingredients of traditional Chinese medicine. Front Pharmacol 2023; 14:1286718. [PMID: 37954843 PMCID: PMC10637571 DOI: 10.3389/fphar.2023.1286718] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/31/2023] [Accepted: 10/16/2023] [Indexed: 11/14/2023] Open
Abstract
Cardiovascular diseases (CVDs), encompassing ischaemic heart disease, cardiomyopathy, and heart failure, among others, are the most prevalent complications of diabetes and the leading cause of mortality in patients with diabetes. Cell death modalities, including apoptosis, necroptosis, and pyroptosis, have been demonstrated to be involved in the pathogenesis of CVDs. As research progresses, accumulating evidence also suggests the involvement of ferroptosis, a novel form of cell death, in the pathogenesis of CVDs. Ferroptosis, characterised by iron-dependent lipid peroxidation, which culminates in membrane rupture, may present new therapeutic targets for diabetes-related cardiovascular complications. Current treatments for CVDs, such as antihypertensive, anticoagulant, lipid-lowering, and plaque-stabilising drugs, may cause severe side effects with long-term use. Traditional Chinese medicine, with its broad range of activities and minimal side effects, is widely used in China. Numerous studies have shown that active components of Chinese medicine, such as alkaloids, polyphenols, and saponins, can prevent CVDs by regulating ferroptosis. This review summarises the recent findings on the regulatory mechanisms of active components of Chinese medicine against ferroptosis in CVDs, aiming to provide new directions and a scientific basis for targeting ferroptosis for the prevention and treatment of diabetic CVDs.

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

Abstract
Selenoprotein GPX4 (glutathione peroxidase 4), originally known as PHGPX (phospholipid hydroperoxide glutathione peroxidase), is the main oxidoreductase in the use of glutathione as a reducing agent in scavenging lipid peroxidation products. There are three GPX4 isoforms: cytosolic (cGPX4), mitochondrial (mGPX4), and nuclear (nGPX4), with distinct spatiotemporal expression patterns during embryonic development and adult life. In addition to inducing the main phenotype of ferroptosis, the loss of GPX4 can in some cells trigger apoptosis, necroptosis, pyroptosis, or parthanatos, which mediates or accelerates developmental defects, tissue damage, and sterile inflammation. The interaction of GPX4 with the autophagic degradation pathway further modulates cell fate in response to oxidative stress. Impaired GPX4 function is implicated in tumorigenesis, neurodegeneration, infertility, inflammation, immune disorders, and ischemia-reperfusion injury. Additionally, the R152H mutation in GPX4 can promote the development of Sedaghatian-type spinal metaphyseal dysplasia, a rare and fatal disease in newborns. Here, we discuss the roles of classical GPX4 functions as well as emerging GPX4-regulated processes in cell death, autophagy, and disease.Abbreviations: AA: arachidonic acid; cGPX4: cytosolic GPX4; CMA: chaperone-mediated autophagy; DAMPs: danger/damage-associated molecular patterns; mGPX4: mitochondrial GPX4; nGPX4: nuclear GPX4; GSDMD-N: N-terminal fragment of GSDMD; I/R: ischemia-reperfusion; PLOOH: phospholipid hydroperoxide; PUFAs: polyunsaturated fatty acids; RCD: regulated cell death; ROS: reactive oxygen species; Se: selenium; SSMD: Sedaghatian-type spondylometaphyseal dysplasia; UPS: ubiquitin-proteasome system.

Abstract
As a novel form of regulated cell death, ferroptosis is characterized by intracellular iron and lipid peroxide accumulation, which is different from other regulated cell death forms morphologically, biochemically, and immunologically. Ferroptosis is regulated by iron metabolism, lipid metabolism, and antioxidant defense systems as well as various transcription factors and related signal pathways. Emerging evidence has highlighted that ferroptosis is associated with many physiological and pathological processes, including cancer, neurodegeneration diseases, cardiovascular diseases, and ischemia/reperfusion injury. Noncoding RNAs are a group of functional RNA molecules that are not translated into proteins, which can regulate gene expression in various manners. An increasing number of studies have shown that noncoding RNAs, especially miRNAs, lncRNAs, and circRNAs, can interfere with the progression of ferroptosis by modulating ferroptosis-related genes or proteins directly or indirectly. In this review, we summarize the basic mechanisms and regulations of ferroptosis and focus on the recent studies on the mechanism for different types of ncRNAs to regulate ferroptosis in different physiological and pathological conditions, which will deepen our understanding of ferroptosis regulation by noncoding RNAs and provide new insights into employing noncoding RNAs in ferroptosis-associated therapeutic strategies.

Abstract
Background Myocardial ischemia/reperfusion injury (MIRI) refers to the more severe damage that occurs in the previously ischemic myocardium after a short-term interruption of myocardial blood supply followed by restoration of blood flow within a certain period of time. MIRI has become a major challenge affecting the therapeutic efficacy of cardiovascular surgery. Methods A scientific literature search on MIRI-related papers published from 2000 to 2023 in the Web of Science Core Collection database was conducted. VOSviewer was used for bibliometric analysis to understand the scientific development and research hotspots in this field. Results A total of 5,595 papers from 81 countries/regions, 3,840 research institutions, and 26,202 authors were included. China published the most papers, but the United States had the most significant influence. Harvard University was the leading research institution, and influential authors included Lefer David J., Hausenloy Derek J., Yellon Derek M., and others. All keywords can be divided into four different directions: risk factors, poor prognosis, mechanisms and cardioprotection. Conclusion Research on MIRI is flourishing. It is necessary to conduct an in-depth investigation of the interaction between different mechanisms and multi-target therapy will be the focus and hotspot of MIRI research in the future.

Abstract
Ferroptosis is defined as an iron-dependent regulated form of cell death driven by lipid peroxidation. In the past decade, it has been implicated in the pathogenesis of various diseases that together involve almost every organ of the body, including various cancers, neurodegenerative diseases, cardiovascular diseases, lung diseases, liver diseases, kidney diseases, endocrine metabolic diseases, iron-overload-related diseases, orthopedic diseases and autoimmune diseases. Understanding the underlying molecular mechanisms of ferroptosis and its regulatory pathways could provide additional strategies for the management of these disease conditions. Indeed, there are an expanding number of studies suggesting that ferroptosis serves as a bona-fide target for the prevention and treatment of these diseases in relevant pre-clinical models. In this review, we summarize the progress in the research into ferroptosis and its regulatory mechanisms in human disease, while providing evidence in support of ferroptosis as a target for the treatment of these diseases. We also discuss our perspectives on the future directions in the targeting of ferroptosis in human disease.

Abstract
Ferroptosis is a cell death pathway triggered by an imbalance between the production of oxidants and antioxidants, which plays an emerging role in tumorigenesis. It is mainly regulated at three different levels including iron metabolism, the antioxidant response, and lipid metabolism. Epigenetic dysregulation is a "hallmark" of human cancer, with nearly half of all human cancers harboring mutations in epigenetic regulators such as microRNA. While being the crucial player in controlling gene expression at the mRNA level, microRNAs have recently been shown to modulate cancer growth and development via the ferroptosis pathway. In this scenario, some miRNAs have a function in upregulating, while others play a role in inhibiting ferroptosis activity. The investigation of validated targets using the miRBase, miRTarBase, and miRecords platforms identified 13 genes that appeared enriched for iron metabolism, lipid peroxidation, and antioxidant defense; all are recognized contributors of tumoral suppression or progression phenotypes. This review summarizes and discuss the mechanism by which ferroptosis is initiated through an imbalance in the three pathways, the potential function of microRNAs in the control of this process, and a description of the treatments that have been shown to have an impact on the ferroptosis in cancer along with potential novel effects.

Abstract
Cardiovascular diseases have been leading cause of death worldwide for many decades, and obesity has been acknowledged as a risk factor for cardiovascular diseases. In the present review, human epicardial adipose tissue-derived miRNAs reported to be differentially expressed under pathologic conditions are discussed and summarized. The results of the literature review indicate that some of the epicardial adipose tissue-derived miRNAs are believed to be cardioprotective, while some others show quite the opposite effects depending on the underlying pathologic conditions. Furthermore, they suggest that that the epicardial adipose tissue-derived miRNAs have great potential as both a diagnostic and therapeutic modality. Nevertheless, mainly due to highly limited availability of human samples, it is very difficult to make any generalized claims on a given miRNA in terms of its overall impact on the cardiovascular system. Therefore, further functional investigation of a given miRNA including, but not limited to, the study of its dose effect, off-target effects, and potential toxicity is required. We hope that this review can provide novel insights to transform our current knowledge on epicardial adipose tissue-derived miRNAs into clinically viable therapeutic strategies for preventing and treating cardiovascular diseases.

Protective effect of bone marrow mesenchymal stem cell-derived exosomes on cardiomyoblast hypoxia-reperfusion injury through the HAND2-AS1/miR-17-5p/Mfn2 axis. BMC Cardiovasc Disord 2023; 23:114. [PMID: 36882677 PMCID: PMC9993697 DOI: 10.1186/s12872-023-03148-4] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/25/2022] [Accepted: 02/24/2023] [Indexed: 03/09/2023] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND The exosomes (exos) of bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells (BMSCs) play an important therapeutic role in repairing myocardial injury. The purpose of this study was to explore how the exos of BMSCs can alleviate the myocardial cell injury caused by hypoxia/reoxygenation (H/R) through HAND2-AS1/miR-17-5p/Mfn 2 pathway. METHODS Cardiomyocytes H9c2 were damaged by H/R to mimic myocardial damage. Exos were gained from BMSC. The content of HAND2-AS1 and miR-17-5p was assessed by RT-qPCR. Cell survival rate and apoptosis were estimated by MTT assay and flow cytometry. Western blotting was used to detect the expression of protein. The contents of LDH, SOD, and MDA in the cell culture were detected by commercial kits. The luciferase reporter gene method confirmed the targeted relationships. RESULTS In H9c2 cells induced by H/R, the level of HAND2-AS1 declined and the expression of miR-17-5p was elevated, but their expression was reversed after exo treatment. Exos improved the cell viability, declined cell apoptosis, controlled the oxidative stress, and repressed inflammation, thus attenuating the damage of H9c2 induced by H/R, whereas, the knockdown of HAND2-AS1 partly alleviated the impacts of exos. MiR-17-5p played the opposite role to HAND2-AS1 on H/R-injured myocardial cells. CONCLUSION Exos derived from BMSC could alleviate H/R-induced myocardial injury by activating HAND2-AS1/miR-17-5p/Mfn2 pathway.

Abstract
Glutathione peroxidase 4 (GPx4) moonlights as structural protein and antioxidase that powerfully inhibits lipid oxidation. In the past years, it is considered as a key regulator of ferroptosis, which takes role in the lipid and amine acid metabolism and influences the cell aging, oncogenesis, and cell death. More and more evidences show that targeting GPX4-induced ferroptosis is a promising strategy for disease therapy, especially cancer treatment. In view of these, we generalize the function of GPX4 and regulatory mechanism between GPX4 and ferroptosis, discuss its roles in the disease pathology, and focus on the recent advances of disease therapeutic potential.

Abstract
Ferroptosis is a kind of cell death which has distinctive features differentiating it from autophagy, necrosis and apoptosis. This iron-dependent form of cell death is described by an increase in lipid reactive oxygen species, shrinkage of mitochondria and decrease in mitochondrial cristae. Ferroptosis is involved in the initiation and progression of many diseases and is regarded as a hotspot of investigations on treatment of disorders. Recent studies have shown that microRNAs partake in the regulation of ferroptosis. The impact of microRNAs on this process has been verified in different cancers as well as intervertebral disc degeneration, acute myocardial infarction, vascular disease, intracerebral hemorrhage, preeclampsia, hemorrhagic stroke, atrial fibrillation, pulmonary fibrosis and atherosclerosis. miR-675, miR-93, miR-27a, miR-34a and miR-141 have been shown to affect iron metabolism, antioxidant metabolism and lipid metabolism, thus influencing all pivotal mechanisms in the ferroptosis process. In the current review, we summarize the role of microRNAs in ferroptosis and their involvement in the pathetiology of malignant and non-malignant disorders.

Abstract
Ischemia-reperfusion (I/R) is a common pathological phenomenon that occurs in numerous organs and diseases. It generally results from secondary damage caused by the recovery of blood flow and reoxygenation, followed by ischemia of organ tissues, which is often accompanied by severe cellular damage and death. Currently, effective treatments for I/R injury (IRI) are limited. Ferroptosis, a new type of regulated cell death (RCD), is characterized by iron overload and iron-dependent lipid peroxidation. Mounting evidence has indicated a close relationship between ferroptosis and IRI. Ferroptosis plays a significantly detrimental role in the progression of IRI, and targeting ferroptosis may be a promising approach for treatment of IRI. Considering the substantial progress made in the study of ferroptosis in IRI, in this review, we summarize the pathological mechanisms and therapeutic targets of ferroptosis in IRI.

Abstract
Ischemia-reperfusion (I/R) injury is a major challenge in perioperative medicine that contributes to pathological damage in various conditions, including ischemic stroke, myocardial infarction, acute lung injury, liver transplantation, acute kidney injury and hemorrhagic shock. I/R damage is often irreversible, and current treatments for I/R injury are limited. Ferroptosis, a type of regulated cell death characterized by the iron-dependent accumulation of lipid hydroperoxides, has been implicated in multiple diseases, including I/R injury. Emerging evidence suggests that ferroptosis can serve as a therapeutic target to alleviate I/R injury, and pharmacological strategies targeting ferroptosis have been developed in I/R models. Here, we systematically summarize recent advances in research on ferroptosis in I/R injury and provide a comprehensive analysis of ferroptosis-regulated genes investigated in the context of I/R, as well as the therapeutic applications of ferroptosis regulators, to provide insights into developing therapeutic strategies for this devastating disease.

Abstract
Cardiovascular disease (CVD) is a significant public health issue due to its high prevalence and considerable contribution to the global disease burden. Recent studies suggest that genetic factors, including noncoding RNAs, have an important role in the progression of CVD. Noncoding RNA plays a critical role in genetic programming and gene regulation during development. Ferroptosis is a form of iron-dependent regulated cell death (RCD), which is mainly caused by increased lipid hydroperoxide and redox imbalance. Ferroptosis is essentially different from other forms of RCD in morphology and mechanism, such as apoptosis, autophagic cell death, pyroptosis, and necroptosis. Much evidence suggested ferroptosis is involved in the development of various CVDs, especially in cardiac ischemia/reperfusion injury, heart failure, and aortic dissection. Here, we review the latest findings based on noncoding RNA regulation of ferroptosis and its involvement in the pathogenesis of CVD and related treatments, aimed at providing insights into the impact of noncoding RNA regulation of ferroptosis for CVD.

Abstract
Iron is indispensable in numerous biologic processes, but abnormal iron regulation and accumulation is related to pathological processes in cardiovascular diseases. However, the underlying mechanisms still need to be further explored. Iron plays a key role in metal-catalyzed oxidative reactions that generate reactive oxygen species (ROS), which can cause oxidative stress. As the center for oxygen and iron utilization, mitochondria are vulnerable to damage from iron-induced oxidative stress and participate in processes involved in iron-related damage in cardiovascular disease, although the mechanism remains unclear. In this review, the pathological roles of iron-related oxidative stress in cardiovascular diseases are summarized, and the potential effects and mechanisms of mitochondrial iron homeostasis and dysfunction in these diseases are especially highlighted.

Nr2f2 Overexpression Aggravates Ferroptosis and Mitochondrial Dysfunction by Regulating the PGC-1α Signaling in Diabetes-Induced Heart Failure Mice. Mediators Inflamm 2022; 2022:8373389.

Abstract
Diabetes is well recognized to increase the risk of heart failure, which is associated with higher mortality and morbidity. It is important for the development of novel therapeutic methods targeting heart failure in diabetic patients. Ferroptosis, an iron-dependent regulated cell death, has been implicated in the progression of diabetes-induced heart failure (DIHF). This study was designed to investigate the contribution of Nr2f2 to the activation of ferroptosis and mitochondrial dysfunction in DIHF. We established a diabetic model by a high-fat feeding diet combined with an intraperitoneal injection of streptozotocin. After 16 weeks, Nr2f2 expression was increased in heart tissue of DIHF mice. In vivo, DIHF mice overexpressing Nr2f2 (AAV9-cTNT-Nr2f2) exhibited severe heart failure and enhanced cardiac ferroptosis compared with DIHF control mice (AAV9-cTNT-ctrl), accompanied by mitochondrial dysfunction and aggravated oxidative stress reaction. In vitro, Nr2f2 knockdown ameliorated ferroptosis and mitochondrial dysfunction by negatively regulating PGC-1α, a crucial metabolic regulator. PGC-1α knockdown counteracted the protective effect of Nr2f2 knockdown. These data suggest that Nr2f2 promotes heart failure and ferroptosis in DIHF by modulating the PGC-1α signaling. Our study provides a new idea for the treatment of diabetes-induced heart failure.
