| Summary: | Ferroptosis, a recently recognized form of regulated cell death (RCD) characterized by iron-dependent lipid peroxide accumulation, has emerged as a noteworthy regulator in various bone-related diseases, including osteoporosis (OP), osteoarthritis (OA), and osteosarcoma (OS). OS primarily afflicts the elderly, rendering them susceptible to fractures due to increased bone fragility. OA represents the most prevalent arthritis in the world, often observed in the aging population. OS predominantly manifests during adolescence, exhibiting an aggressive nature and bearing a significantly unfavorable prognosis. In this review article, we present an overview of the characteristics and mechanism of ferroptosis and its involvement in bone-related diseases, with a particular focus on OP, OA, and OS. Furthermore, we summarize chemical compounds or biological factors that impact bone-related diseases by regulating ferroptosis. Through an in-depth exploration of ferroptosis based on current research findings, this review provides promising insights for potential therapeutic approaches to effectively manage and mitigate the impact of these bone-related pathological conditions. |
