Shi Dong, Xin Li, Wenkai Jiang, Zhou Chen, and Wence Zhou Cancer Cell Int Abstract: Pancreatic cancer is a highly malignant tumour of the digestive tract. Despite advances in treatment, its 5-year survival rate remains low, and its prognosis is the worst among all cancers; innovative therapeutic methods are needed. Ferroptosis is a form of regulatory cell death driven by iron accumulation and lipid peroxidation. Recent studies have found that ferroptosis plays an important role in the development and treatment response of tumours, particularly pancreatic cancer. This article reviews the current understanding of the mechanism of ferroptosis and ferroptosis-related treatment in pancreatic cancer. URL:https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC8427874/
