Abstract:

Osteosarcoma is one of the most common primary malignant bone tumors, which has reached a "bottleneck" in the current clinical treatment of patients with osteosarcoma due to its poor prognosis and lack of therapeutic modalities. Recently, more and more researches have found that ferroptosis, as a novel cell death modality, may play an important role in osteosarcoma treatment. In recent years, with more in-depth studies on the mechanisms and molecular pathways related to ferroptosis, its specific therapeutic strategies in osteosarcoma have also been validated, which is expected to provide new ideas for the clinical treatment of osteosarcoma patients.

Key words: Osteosarcoma, Ferroptosis, Reactive oxygen species, Antineoplastic protocols
