- Abstract: As a classical inflammatory response pathway,the nuclear factor-kappa B(NF-κB)signaling pathway plays a critical role in various physiological and pathological processes.Ferroptosis is a new form of non-apoptotic cell death,and recent studies have shown that there is a strong link between the NF-κB signaling pathway and ferroptosis,which affects the development and progression of liver diseases.Therefore,regulation of ferroptosis by targeting the NF-κB signaling pathway has a great potential in the treatment of liver diseases.This article discusses the influence of the NF-κB signaling pathway on the critical links such as lipid metabolism and iron metabolism during ferroptosis,as well as its mechanism of action in the positive and negative regulation of ferroptosis.Meanwhile,this article reviews the research advances in the role of this signaling pathway in liver diseases such as liver injury,nonalcoholic fatty liver disease,alcoholic liver disease,and hepatocellular carcinoma through the regulation of ferroptosis,so as to provide a reference for further understanding of the pathogenesis of liver diseases and the development of new therapeutic strategies.
