[Ferroptosis:Mechanisms and Application in Tumor Treatment].

Ferroptosis is a form of regulated cell death that depends on iron and reactive oxygen species.Different from apoptosis,necrosis,and autophagy,ferroptosis is characterized by the accumulation of lipid peroxides in cells.Studies have discovered that ferroptosis is closely associated with the occurrence and development of tumors and inducing ferroptosis in tumor cells can enhance the therapeutic effects of drugs on tumors.This article summarizes the latest research progress in ferroptosis regarding its mechanisms and associations with tumors,aiming to provide a reference for further understanding the interaction mechanisms between ferroptosis and tumors and offering new insights and targets for the treatment of tumors.
