Iron is essential for many types of biological processes. However, excessive iron can be cytotoxic and can lead to many diseases. Since ferroptosis, which is an iron-dependent regulated form of necrosis, was recently discovered, iron and iron-catalysed oxidative stress have attracted much interest because of their sophisticated mechanism of cellular signalling leading to cell death and associated with various diseases.
