Résumé
Excess iron accumulation is a risk factor for osteopenia and osteoporosis, and ferroptosis is becoming well understood as iron-dependent form of cell death resulting from lipid peroxide accumulation. However, any pathological impacts of ferroptosis on osteoporosis remain unknown. Here, we show that ferroptosis is involved in excess-iron-induced bone loss and demonstrate that osteoporotic mice and humans have elevated skeletal accumulation of the NADPH oxidase 4 (NOX4) enzyme. Mechanistically, we found that the NOX4 locus contains iron-response element-like (IRE-like) sequences that are normally bound (and repressed) by the iron regulatory protein 1 (IRP1) protein. Binding with iron induces dissociation of IRP1 from the IRE-like sequences and thereby activates NOX4 transcription. Elevated NOX4 increases lipid peroxide accumulation and causes obvious dysregulation of mitochondrial morphology and function in osteoblasts. Excitingly, the osteoporotic bone loss which we initially observed in an excessive-iron accumulating mouse line (Hepc1
