Membrane Damage during Ferroptosis Is Caused by Oxidation of Phospholipids Catalyzed by the Oxidoreductases POR and CYB5R1
Open accessAbstract
Ferroptosis is a form of necrotic cell death caused by iron-dependent peroxidation of polyunsaturated phospholipids on cell membranes and is actively suppressed by the cellular antioxidant systems. We report here that oxidoreductases, including NADPH-cytochrome P450 reductase (POR) and NADH-cytochrome b5 reductase (CYB5R1), transfer electrons from NAD(P)H to oxygen to generate hydrogen peroxide, which subsequently reacts with iron to generate reactive hydroxyl radicals for the peroxidation of the polyunsaturated fatty acid (PUFA) chains of membrane phospholipids, thereby disrupting membrane integrity during ferroptosis. Genetic knockout of POR and CYB5R1 decreases cellular hydrogen peroxide generation, preventing lipid peroxidation and ferroptosis. Moreover, POR knockdown in mouse liver prevents ConA-induced liver damage. Ferroptosis, therefore, is a result of incidental electron transfer carried out by POR/CYB5R1 oxidoreductase and thus needs to be constitutively countered by the antioxidant systems.

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.
