Research progress of ferroptosis in cardiovascular disease
Iron homeostasis is essential for maintaining cardiac function.Ferroptosis,as an iron-dependent programmed cell death driven by lipid peroxidation on cell membranes,is closely related to the occurrence and development of cardiovascular diseases,but the specific mechanism remains unclear.This paper reviews the relationship between ferroptosis and various cardiovascular diseases,including heart failure,atherosclerosis,myocardial infarction,cardiomyopathy and sepsis related myocardial injury,providing new ideas for the treatment of cardiovascular diseases.
