Preclinical studies have shown that ferroptosis-preventing therapies, such as the GSH precursor N-acetylcysteine (NAC), iron-chelating agents like deferoxamine (DFO) and deferiprone (DFP), and specific ferroptosis inhibitors like ferrostatin-1 (Fer-1), can alleviate neurodegeneration and improve motor symptoms in PD animal models ( In this comprehensive review, we aim to summarize the multifaceted roles of ferroptosis in PD pathogenesis, elucidate the links between PD-associated pathogenic proteins and ferroptosis, and provide an overview of current clinical trials and the potential of ferroptosis in the early diagnosis and treatment of PD

Studies in preclinical models report changes in repair related endpoints such as angiogenesis associated markers, tissue architecture measures, and inflammatory marker shifts depending on the model
For example, an individual with impaired fasting glucose who reduces visceral fat and decreases HbA1c by 0.5 to 1.0 percent can reduce their five-year diabetes risk significantly, especially when lifestyle change is sustained as well
