Increasing studies suggest that ferroptosis is involved in the acute lung injury (ALI). This article aims to review the role of ferroptosis in ALI. ALI is a common respiratory disease and presents a high mortality rate. Inhibiting cell ferroptosis of lung improves the ALI. In addition, several signaling pathways are related to ferroptosis in ALI, involving in iron homeostasis, lipid peroxidation, and amino acid metabolism. Moreover, there are various key factors to regulate the occurrence of ferroptosis in ALI, such as ACSL4, NRF2, and P53. The ACSL4 promotes the ferroptosis, while the NRF2 alleviates the ferroptosis in ALI. The main effect of P53 is to promote ferroptosis. Accordingly, ferroptosis is involved in ALI and may be an important therapeutic target for ALI. 收起
