description | Abstract As an important element of the human body, iron participates in numerous physiological and biochemical reactions. In the past decade, ferroptosis (a form of iron-dependent regulated cell death) has been reported to contribute to the pathogenesis and progression of various diseases. The stability of iron in cardiomyocytes is crucial for the maintenance of normal physiological cardiac activity. Ferroptosis has been detected in many cardiovascular diseases (CVDs), including coronary heart disease, myocardial ischemia–reperfusion injury, heart failure, and chemotherapy-induced myocardial damage. In cardiomyocytes, epigenetic regulation and post-translational modifications regulate the expression of ferroptosis-related factors, maintain iron homeostasis, and participate in the progression of CVDs. Currently, there is no detailed mechanism to explain the relationship between epigenetic regulation and ferroptosis in CVDs. In this review, we provide an initial summary of the core mechanisms of ferroptosis in cardiomyocytes, with first focus on the epigenetic regulation and expression of ferroptosis-related factors in the context of common cardiovascular diseases. We anticipate that the new insights into the pathogenesis of CVDs provided here will inspire the development of clinical interventions to specifically target the active sites of these factors, reducing the harmfulness of ferroptosis to human health. |
