2.1.2 Dysregulation of key iron-regulating proteins In ferroptosis, intracellular iron homeostasis is maintained by a network of regulatory mechanisms, including iron acquisition via the transferrin (Tf)/transferrin receptor 1 (TfR1) pathway, intracellular transport by divalent metal transporter 1 (DMT1), export by ferroportin (FPN1), storage in ferritin, and iron release through ferritinophagy mediated by nuclear receptor coactivator 4 (NCOA4) (39, 40)
Peptides and peptide aggregates can trigger immune responses, but the likelihood for a specific preparation depends on sequence, purity, formulation, route, storage, patient factors, and repeated exposure
