Abstract:
Oxidative stress is an important pathophysiological pathway for the development and progression of ferroptosis. Under pathological conditions, the production of a large amount of reactive oxygen species (ROS) exceeds the buffering capacity of the antioxidant defense system, resulting in lipid peroxidation and cell ferroptosis in the state of oxidative stress. Cellular lipid peroxidation can generate toxic aldehydes, which interact with important biological macromolecules and break the normal function of cells. At present, it has been found that aldehyde dehydrogenase 2 (ALDH2) can eliminate these aldehydes and regulate the cycle of toxic aldehydes-ROS-oxidative stress-lipid peroxidation, thereby improving the prognosis of diseases associated with iron death. Ferroptosis and ALDH2 were introduced, and the current researches on ALDH2 were summarized to improve diseases associated with iron death, which can open up new directions for the subsequent research on the treatment of diseases associated with iron death.
