Fig. 1. Summary of key regulators and related mechanisms of ferroptosis.

Fig. 1

The three primary defense systems include GPx4-mediated ferroptosis resistance, FSP1-related system, and DHODH-mediated ferroptosis defense. The regulators that participate in the regulation of ferroptosis mainly involve Nrf2, SLC7A11, P53, and GCH1. Other regulators and potential mechanisms related to ferroptosis are also shown here.
