The Multifaceted Regulation of Mitochondria in Ferroptosis

Hao Wu et al.

Summary: Ferroptosis is a novel form of regulated cell death initiated by lethal lipid peroxidation catalyzed by cellular labile free iron. It differs significantly from other regulated cell death forms at morphological, genetic, and biochemical levels. Dysregulated ferroptosis is highly relevant to the pathogenesis of degenerative diseases and organ injuries in human patients, and the targeted induction of ferroptosis is considered a potential therapeutic strategy for therapy-resistant cancers. Mitochondria play a crucial role in regulating ferroptosis, with compromised mitochondrial morphology and functionalities primarily involved in this process. Various mitochondria-associated proteins and metabolic processes have been identified to modulate ferroptotic cell death.

NIR-II emissive AIEgen photosensitizers enable ultrasensitive imaging-guided surgery and phototherapy to fully inhibit orthotopic hepatic tumors

Ruizhen Jia et al.

Summary: NIR-II AIEgen photosensitizers show bright and sharp emission for imaging-guided surgery and phototherapy of primary liver tumors, with efficient generation of reactive oxygen species for photodynamic therapy. They can be used for both early-stage tumor surgery and 'downstaging' therapy, leading to complete inhibition of tumors without recurrence and minimal side effects.

Trojan Horse-Like Nano-AIE Aggregates Based on Homologous Targeting Strategy and Their Photodynamic Therapy in Anticancer Application

Yin Li et al.

Summary: The study synthesized two near-infrared emitters with aggregation-induced ROS generation characteristics and found that they exhibit excellent LD-specific targeting ability, with PTI demonstrating more effective red emission and intersystem crossing compared to PI. Additionally, the detailed therapeutic mechanism of PDT in LDs specificity was investigated, confirming the oxidation of polyunsaturated fatty acids in LDs to form toxic lipid peroxides and causing cellular ferroptosis.

Photodynamic therapy: A next alternative treatment strategy for hepatocellular carcinoma?

Feng Zhu et al.

Summary: Liver cancer, particularly hepatocellular carcinoma, is a prevalent malignancy that can compromise health. Locoregional thermal ablation techniques like radiofrequency and microwave ablation are being explored as alternatives for HCC treatment, but complications may occur. In contrast, photodynamic therapy offers a gentler alternative, though its limitations for deep-seated HCC are recognized.
