Iron and magnetic: new research direction of the ferroptosis-based cancer therapy.

) in acidic lysosomes and inducing ferroptosis. Magnetic field is widely used in the targeted concentration of iron-based NPs related disease therapy. Furthermore, multiple studies showed that magnetic fields can inhibit cancer cell proliferation by promoting intracellular ROS production. Herein, we focus on the relationship of between ferroptosis and iron metabolism in cancer cells, the application of nanoparticles and magnetic field in inducing ferroptosis of cancer cells, and trying to provide new ideas for cancer treatment research.
