The emerging role of ferroptosis in inflammation
Open accessAbstract
Ferroptosis is a newly discovered type of cell death triggered by intracellular phospholipid peroxidation that is morphologically, biologically and genetically distinct from other types of cell death. Ferroptosis is classified as regulated necrosis and is more immunogenic than apoptosis. To date, compelling evidence indicates that ferroptosis plays an important role in inflammation, and several antioxidants functioning as ferroptosis inhibitors have been shown to exert anti-inflammatory effects in experimental models of certain diseases. Our review provides an overview of the link between ferroptosis and inflammation; a better understanding of the mechanisms underlying ferroptosis and inflammation may hasten the development of promising therapeutic strategies involving ferroptosis inhibitors to address inflammation.

The cited source says what the claim attributes to it.
In the citing paper
“In an oxalate-induced mouse model of AKI, evidence of inflammation was observed, and the ferroptosis inhibitor Ferrostatin-1 successfully inhibited neutrophil infiltration and the expression of pro-inflammatory cytokines such as CXCL-2 and IL-6.255,256”
From Inflammation and aging: signaling pathways and intervention therapies (2023) · cites this paper as [256]
The cited source says what the claim attributes to it.
In the citing paper
“Ferroptosis represents an iron-dependent RCD pathway characterized by lipid peroxidation and downregulation of the antioxidant defense of cells [39,40,41].”
From Role of Regulated Cell Death Pathways in Snakebite Envenomation: Mechanisms, Crosstalk, and Therapeutic Opportunities (2026) · cites this paper as [41]
In the citing paper
“This theory is supported by previous data demonstrating that inflammation induces iron-dependant peroxidation processes resulting in cellular apoptosis, a process which is referred to as ferroptosis [29, 30].”
In the citing paper
“Notably, iron dysmetabolism and ferroptosis have also been linked to typical COVID-19 associated symptoms, such as cognitive impairment and anosmia [15, 29].”

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
