Abstract
Peptic ulcers, recognized for their erosive impact on the gastrointestinal mucosa, present a considerable challenge in gastroenterology. Epidemiological insights underscore the global prevalence of peptic ulcers, affecting 5-10+% of individuals, with a yearly incidence of 0.3 to 1.9 cases per thousand. Recent decades have witnessed a decline in complications, attributed to improved diagnostics and therapeutic advancements. The review deepens into H. pylori-associated and NSAID-induced ulcers, emphasizing their distinct prevalence in developing and industrialized nations, respectively. Despite advancements, managing peptic ulcers remains challenging, notably in H. pylori-infected individuals facing recurrence and the rise of antibiotic resistance. The pathophysiology unravels the delicate balance between protective and destructive factors, including the intricate molecular mechanisms involving inflammatory mediators such as TNF-α, ILs, and prostaglandins. Genetic and ethnic factors, rare contributors, and recent molecular insights further enhance our understanding of peptic ulcer development. Diagnostic approaches are pivotal, with upper gastrointestinal endoscopy standing as the gold standard. Current treatment strategies focus on H. pylori eradication, NSAID discontinuation, and proton pump inhibitors. Surgical options become imperative for refractory cases, emphasizing a comprehensive approach. Advances include tailored H. pylori regimens, the emergence of vonoprazan, and ongoing vaccine development. Challenges persist, primarily in antibiotic resistance, side effects of acid suppressants, and translating natural compounds into standardized therapies. Promising avenues include the potential H. pylori vaccine and the exploration of natural compounds, with monoterpenes showing therapeutic promise. This review serves as a compass, guiding healthcare professionals, researchers, and policymakers through the intricate landscape of peptic ulcer management.

Abstract
Reduced bone mass and degeneration of the microarchitecture of bone tissue are the hallmarks of osteoporosis, a bone metabolic disease that increases skeletal fragility and fracture susceptibility. Osteoporosis is primarily caused by unbalanced bone remodeling, in which bone synthesis is outpaced by bone resorption caused by osteoclasts. Along with the bone-building vitamins calcium and vitamin D, typical medications for treating osteoporosis include bisphosphonates and calcitonin. The present therapies effectively stop osteoclast activation that is too high, however they come with varying degrees of negative effects. Numerous factors can contribute to osteoporosis, which is characterized by a loss of bone mass and density due to the deterioration of the bone's microstructure, which makes the bone more fragile. As a result, it is a systemic bone condition that makes patients more likely to fracture. Interest in the function of ferroptosis in the pathophysiology of osteoporosis is developing. In this review, we go through the shape of the cell, the fundamental mechanisms of ferroptosis, the relationship between osteoclasts and osteoblasts, the association between ferroptosis and diabetic osteoporosis, steroid-induced osteoporosis, and the relationship between ferroptosis and postmenopausal osteoporosis. The functions of ferroptosis and osteoporosis in cellular function, signaling cascades, pharmacological inhibition, and gene silencing have been better understood thanks to recent advances in biomedical research.

Abstract
Ferroptosis, as a way of cell death, participates in the body's normal physiological and pathological regulation. Recent studies have shown that ferroptosis may damage glucose-stimulated islets β Insulin secretion and programmed cell death of T2DM target organs are involved in the pathogenesis of T2DM and its complications. Targeting suppression of ferroptosis with specific inhibitors may provide new therapeutic opportunities for previously untreated T2DM and its target organs. Current studies suggest that natural bioactive compounds, which are abundantly available in drugs, foods, and medicinal plants for the treatment of T2DM and its target organs, have recently received significant attention for their various biological activities and minimal toxicity, and that many natural compounds appear to have a significant role in the regulation of ferroptosis in T2DM and its target organs. Therefore, this review summarized the potential treatment strategies of natural compounds as ferroptosis inhibitors to treat T2DM and its complications, providing potential lead compounds and natural phytochemical molecular nuclei for future drug research and development to intervene in ferroptosis in T2DM.

Abstract
The involvements of iron metabolism, lipid peroxidation, and oxidative stress in Alzheimer's disease (AD) development have recently received a lot of attention. We also observe that these pathogenic occurrences play a key role in regulating ferroptosis, a unique regulatory cell death that is iron-dependent, oxidative, and non-apoptotic. Iron is a crucial component that makes up a subunit of the oxidase responsible for lipid peroxidation. A family of non-heme iron enzymes known as lipoxygenases (LOXs) can cause ferroptosis by oxidising polyunsaturated fatty acids in cellular membranes (PUFAs). Toxic lipid hydroperoxides are produced in large part by the iron in LOX active sites. Deferoxamine and deferiprone, two iron chelators, could also treat ferroptosis by eliminating the crucial catalytic iron from LOXs. Phospholipids containing polyunsaturated fatty acids are the main substrates of lipid peroxidation in ferroptosis, which is favourably controlled by enzymes like ACSL4, LPCAT3, ALOXs, or POR. Selective stimulation of autophagic degradation pathways leads to an increase in iron accumulation and lipid peroxidation, which promotes ferroptosis. We highlighted recent advancements in our understanding of ferroptosis signaling routes in this study. One form of regulated necrotic cell death known as ferroptosis has been linked to a number of diseases, including cancer, neurological disorders, and ischemia/reperfusion injury. Cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) ferritin may be a good indicator of the amount of iron in the brain because it is the main protein that stores iron.

Abstract
Arachidonic acid 15-lipoxygenase (ALOX15), as one of the lipoxygenase family, is mainly responsible for catalyzing the oxidation of various fatty acids to produce a variety of lipid components, contributing to the pathophysiological processes of various immune and inflammatory diseases. Studies have shown that ALOX15 and its related products are widely distributed in human tissues and related to multiple diseases such as liver, cardiovascular, cerebrovascular diseases, diabetes mellitus and other diseases. Diabetes mellitus (DM), the disease studied in this article, is a metabolic disease characterized by a chronic increase in blood glucose levels, which is significantly related to inflammation, oxidative stress, ferroptosis and other mechanisms, and it has a high incidence in the population, accompanied by a variety of complications. Figuring out how ALOX15 is involved in DM is critical to understanding its role in diseases. Therefore, ALOX15 inhibitors or combination therapy containing inhibitors may deliver a novel research direction for the treatment of DM and its complications. This article aims to review the biological effect and the possible function of ALOX15 in the pathogenesis of DM.

Abstract
Diabetic nephropathy (DN) is a serious microvascular complication of diabetes. It has become a leading cause of death in patients with diabetes and end-stage renal disease. Ferroptosis is a newly discovered pattern of programmed cell death. Its main manifestation is the excessive accumulation of intracellular iron ion-dependent lipid peroxides. Recent studies have shown that ferroptosis is an important driving factor in the onset and development of DN. Ferroptosis is closely associated with renal intrinsic cell (including renal tubular epithelial cells, podocytes, and mesangial cells) damage in diabetes. Chinese herbal medicine is widely used in the treatment of DN, with a long history and definite curative effect. Accumulating evidence suggests that Chinese herbal medicine can modulate ferroptosis in renal intrinsic cells and show great potential for improving DN. In this review, we outline the key regulators and pathways of ferroptosis in DN and summarize the herbs, mainly monomers and extracts, that target the inhibition of ferroptosis.
