Similarly, elevated global DNA methylation, Dnmt activity, and 5-methylcytosine but decreased Tet activity and 5-hydroxymethylcytosine were observed in the GSH-deficient hepatocytes and the liver of HFD-fed mice

Its regulation centers on four interconnected processes: iron metabolism, polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFA) peroxidation, antioxidant defense failure, and mitochondrial dysfunction ( 2.1 Iron metabolism and ferroptosis Iron is central to ferroptosis, as its redox activity catalyzes the formation of reactive oxygen species (ROS) via Fenton reactions, triggering cellular membranes damage and cell death ( A critical regulator of intracellular iron levels is ferritinophagy, the selective autophagic degradation of ferritin mediated by nuclear receptor coactivator 4 (NCOA4)
Drugs that target intrinsic metabolic vulnerabilities (e.g., GLUT1 inhibitors, PDK4 inhibitors, or glutaminase inhibitors) predispose cancer cells to death, which is triggered by decreased nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide phosphate generation or increased reactive oxygen species accumulation
