,Foreword




Twenty years ago, cell death was a simpler field. Apoptosis was the only cell
death process known to be regulated by a specific biochemical mechanism,
and the induction of apoptosis was thought to explain the vast majority of
programmed and pathological cell death in vivo. But since that time, it has
become abundantly clear that, in addition to apoptosis, cells can die in
response to the activation of several non-apoptotic cell death mechanisms,
including necroptosis, pyroptosis, and ferroptosis. The existence of multiple
distinct non-apoptotic cell death pathways raised innumerable fundamental
questions and may explain the previously surprising observations that, when
examined closely, inactivating the apoptotic machinery does not completely
suppress cell death in development or prevent pathological cell death in vivo.
Ferroptosis is an especially unique cell death mechanism in several ways.
First, as the name implies, and unlike other cell death mechanisms, it is char-
acterized by an essential role for iron – a role that still remains poorly defined.
Second, unlike apoptosis and other known non-apoptotic cell death processes,
ferroptosis is not defined by specific protein effectors. Rather, ferroptosis is
fundamentally a metabolic process, characterized by the iron-dependent
overaccumulation of toxic lipid peroxides. Third, ferroptosis is not an active
process that absolutely requires the transcriptional or post-translational
induction or modification of a specific death effector in response to lethal
stimulation. Rather, ferroptosis has been referred to as a process of cell sabo-
tage, or cellular imbalance, where disruption of the normally active intracel-
lular antioxidant machinery allows for a runaway accumulation of lipid
peroxides through the normal actions of the cell. This biochemical unique-
ness, together with the evident importance of ferroptosis in vivo, has height-
ened interest on how this pathway operates and how this pathway could be
turned on or off in different medical scenarios.
Collectively, the chapters in this book provide a detailed introduction and
overview of ferroptosis and describe recent progress in several important
areas. Pouyssegur and colleagues describe how targeting system x?c may pro-
vide a new therapeutic avenue for the treatment of pancreatic cancer via the
induction of ferroptosis. Venkataramani, as well as Mancias and colleagues,
delves into the still mysterious role of iron in the ferroptotic mechanism, and
how iron storage and recycling pathways play a critical role in governing fer-
roptosis sensitivity and execution. Amaral and Namasivayam discuss the
emerging evidence that ferroptosis has a role to play in infectious disease, a
fact that may be especially surprising given that apoptosis, necroptosis, and

v

pyroptosis are already known players in this area. Ferroptosis was initially
described in 2012 using a variety of small molecule tools to activate or inhibit
this process, and as described by Rodriguez and colleagues our ability to
modulate ferroptosis continues to expand in various ways. Finally, as noted
above, ferroptosis is not the only type of non-apoptotic cell death to be
described, and Zanetti and Weinlich describe how necroptosis represents yet
another biochemically distinct pathway. As implied by this final chapter, a
major question awaiting detailed elucidation is how different non-apoptotic
cell death modalities contribute to complex pathological phenotypes in vivo.
This book provides a solid foundation in ferroptosis and other non-apoptotic
cell death pathways and establishes a solid foundation for future studies in
these emerging and important areas.

,About the Editors




Andrés F. Flórez is currently a postdoctoral fellow in the Department of
Molecular and Cellular Biology (MCB) at Harvard University. His research
is focused in understanding the oncogene-based mechanisms regulating fer-
roptosis and to use this knowledge for designing new therapeutic strategies.
He is also interested in the role of ferroptosis in controlling bacterial cell
populations.

Hamed Alborzinia is a postdoctoral fellow in the Division of Stem Cells
and Cancer at the German Cancer Research Center (DKFZ). He also belongs
to the Heidelberg Institute for Stem Cell Technology and Experimental
Medicine (HI-STEM) in Heidelberg, Germany. His main research focus is to
understand the metabolic properties of cancer cells in connection to novel
forms of cell death, including ferroptosis.
