Stress-mediated ferritin degradation leads to increase in iron-dependent ROS formation. Overexpression of SOD1 G93A leads to JNK and p66Shc activation, ferritin ubiquitination, and degradation by proteasome. As a result, LIP and iron-dependent ROS formation increase. In addition, iron augments ferritin synthesis in order to overcome iron toxicity.
