Implications of three FRG signatures for MS.

Gene symbol Full name Implication Location
HMOX1 Heme oxygenase 1 HMOX1 may play a significant role in the maintenance of immune homeostasis which is disrupted in autoimmune disorders, such as MS. Chromosome 22
LPCAT3 Lysophosphatidylcholine acyltransferase 3 Lysophospholipid acyltransferases (LPLATs) regulate the diversification of fatty acid composition in biological membranes. LPCATs are members of the LPLATs that play a role in inflammatory responses. Chromosome 12
RPL8 Ribosomal protein L8 Neuronal ferroptosis occurs during the acute phase of intracerebral hemorrhage in brain areas distant from the hematoma and that inhibition of ferroptosis by Fer-1 exerted a long-term cerebroprotective effect. Chromosome 8

MS = multiple sclerosis, FRG = ferroptosis-related gene.
