Abstract
Degenerative bone and joint diseases (DBJDs), characterized by osteoporosis, osteoarthritis, and chronic inflammation of surrounding soft tissues, are systemic conditions primarily affecting the skeletal system. Ferroptosis, a programmed cell death pathway distinct from apoptosis, autophagy, and necroptosis. Accumulating evidence suggests that ferroptosis is intricately linked to the pathogenesis of DBJDs, and targeting its regulation could be beneficial in managing these conditions. Natural products, known for their anti-inflammatory and antioxidant properties, have shown unique advantages in preventing DBJDs, potentially through modulating ferroptosis. This article provides an overview of the latest research on ferroptosis, with a focus on its role in the pathogenesis of DBJDs and the therapeutic potential of natural products targeting this cell death pathway, offering novel insights for the prevention and treatment of DBJDs.
期刊介绍:
Phytotherapy Research is an internationally recognized pharmacological journal that serves as a trailblazing resource for biochemists, pharmacologists, and toxicologists. We strive to disseminate groundbreaking research on medicinal plants, pushing the boundaries of knowledge and understanding in this field.
Our primary focus areas encompass pharmacology, toxicology, and the clinical applications of herbs and natural products in medicine. We actively encourage submissions on the effects of commonly consumed food ingredients and standardized plant extracts. We welcome a range of contributions including original research papers, review articles, and letters.
By providing a platform for the latest developments and discoveries in phytotherapy, we aim to support the advancement of scientific knowledge and contribute to the improvement of modern medicine.
