Abstract:
Bladder cancer(BC)is one of the 3 common malignant tumors in the urinary system,with high incidence,easy metastasis,poor therapeutic efficacy,and poor prognosis,which seriously threatens the health of human.Tumor cells exhibit a strong demand for iron,and iron overload can induce ferroptosis,which is an iron dependent cell death caused by lipid peroxidation and cell membrane damage.Therefore,ferroptosis has strong anti-tumor potential.The molecular mechanisms of ferroptosis is associated with abnormalities in cellular phospholipid metabolism and iron metabolism,and dysregulation of antioxidant and non-antioxidant systems Xc-/glutathione(GSH)/glutathione peroxidase 4(GPX4).Ferroptosis relevant molecules play important roles in the occurrence and development,metastasis,drug resistance,and immune response of BC,and are expected to become targets for the treatment of BC.
