Description
Summary:Ferroptosis, a novel form of cell death discovered in recent years, is typically accompanied by significant iron accumulation and lipid peroxidation during the process. This article systematically elucidates how tumor metabolic reprogramming affects the ferroptosis process in tumor cells. The paper outlines the basic concepts and physiological significance of tumor metabolic reprogramming and ferroptosis, and delves into the specific regulatory mechanisms of glucose metabolism, protein metabolism, and lipid metabolism on ferroptosis. We also explore how complex metabolic changes in the tumor microenvironment further influence the response of tumor cells to ferroptosis. Glucose metabolism modulates ferroptosis sensitivity by influencing intracellular energetic status and redox balance; protein metabolism, involving amino acid metabolism and protein synthesis, plays a crucial role in the initiation and progression of ferroptosis; and the relationship between lipid metabolism and ferroptosis primarily manifests in the generation and elimination of lipid peroxides. This review aims to provide a new perspective on how tumor cells regulate ferroptosis through metabolic reprogramming, with the ultimate goal of offering a theoretical basis for developing novel therapeutic strategies targeting tumor metabolism and ferroptosis.
