Abstract:Iron metabolism plays a crucial role in
various physiological functions of the human body, as it is essential for the

risk factor for the development of cardiovascular disease (CVD).
Moreover, emerging evidence suggests that ferroptosis, a form
of iron-dependent programed cell death, may also contribute to CVD development.
