Abstract

Ferroptosis is a recent form of non-apoptotic cell death, which occurs due to imbalance of iron homeostasis (iron overload). Oxidative stress due to the impairment of the antioxidant system is a major pathophysiology during ferroptosis, which eventually results in lipid peroxidation. The cellular and physiological biomarker of ferroptotic cell death includes major alteration in the glutathione peroxidase 4 (GPX4) antioxidant system and lipid peroxidation induced loss of plasma membrane integrity. This review elaborates the mechanism of oxidative stress which triggers ferroptosis.
