Acyl-CoA synthase ACSL4: an essential target in ferroptosis and fatty acid metabolism
Open accessAbstract
Long-chain acyl-coenzyme A (CoA) synthase 4 (ACSL4) is an enzyme that esterifies CoA into specific polyunsaturated fatty acids, such as arachidonic acid and adrenic acid. Based on accumulated evidence, the ACSL4-catalyzed biosynthesis of arachidonoyl-CoA contributes to the execution of ferroptosis by triggering phospholipid peroxidation. Ferroptosis is a type of programmed cell death caused by iron-dependent peroxidation of lipids; ACSL4 and glutathione peroxidase 4 positively and negatively regulate ferroptosis, respectively. In addition, ACSL4 is an essential regulator of fatty acid (FA) metabolism. ACSL4 remodels the phospholipid composition of cell membranes, regulates steroidogenesis, and balances eicosanoid biosynthesis. In addition, ACSL4-mediated metabolic reprogramming and antitumor immunity have attracted much attention in cancer biology. Because it facilitates the cross-talk between ferroptosis and FA metabolism, ACSL4 is also a research hotspot in metabolic diseases and ischemia/reperfusion injuries. In this review, we focus on the structure, biological function, and unique role of ASCL4 in various human diseases. Finally, we propose that ACSL4 might be a potential therapeutic target.

Rosiglitazone is an inhibitor of acyl-CoA synthetase long-chain family member 4 (ACSL4), an enzyme that catalyzes the esterification of arachidonic and adrenic acids preparing them for synthesis of phospholipids, enriching membranes with oxidizable polyunsaturated fatty acids and thereby promoting the LPO that drives ferroptosis.
“In addition, we tested rosiglitazone, an inhibitor of acyl-CoA synthetase long-chain family member 4 (ACSL4), an enzyme that catalyzes the esterification of arachidonic and adrenic acids preparing them for synthesis of phospholipids, enriching membranes with oxidizable polyunsaturated fatty acids and thereby promoting the LPO that drives ferroptosis (Ding et al., 2023).”

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.
