Summary: | Cardio‐metabolic‐diseases (cardio‐metabolic‐diseases) are leading causes of death and disability worldwide and impose a tremendous burden on whole society as well as individuals. As a new type of regulated cell death (RCD), ferroptosis is distinct from several classical types of RCDs such as apoptosis and necroptosis in cell morphology, biochemistry, and genetics. The main molecular mechanisms of ferroptosis involve iron metabolism dysregulation, mitochondrial malfunction, impaired antioxidant capacity, accumulation of lipid‐related peroxides and membrane disruption. Within the past few years, mounting evidence has shown that ferroptosis contributes to the pathophysiological process in cardio‐metabolic‐diseases. However, the exact roles and underlying molecular mechanisms have not been fully elucidated. This review comprehensively summarizes the mechanism of ferroptosis in the development and progression of cardio‐metabolic‐diseases, so as to provide new insights for cardio‐metabolic‐diseases pathophysiology. Moreover, we highlight potential druggable molecules in ferroptosis signaling pathway, and discuss recent advances in management strategies by targeting ferroptosis for prevention and treatment of cardio‐metabolic‐diseases. |
