Ferroptosis in thyroid cancer: mechanisms, current status, and treatment by Wenzhi Tian, Wenzhi Tian, Xi Su, Chenchen Hu, Dong Chen, Peng Li

“…Comprehensive investigations into the pathogenesis of TC have identified a significant association with ferroptosis, a newly characterized form of cell death mediated by iron ions. Distinct from apoptosis, necrosis, and autophagy, ferroptosis is characterized by the accumulation of lipid peroxides and reactive oxygen species, culminating in cellular damage and death.Recent research has elucidated a connection between ferroptosis and the initiation, progression, and treatment of thyroid cancer. …”
