Endoplasmic reticulum stress promotes ferroptosis in ventilator-induced lung injury by promoting HRD1-dependent GPX4 ubiquitination via the IRE1α/XBP1 pathway

Ventilator-induced lung injury (VILI) is a serious complication of mechanical ventilation. Endoplasmic reticulum stress (ERS) has been implicated in regulating ferroptosis, and we previously linked ERS to VILI-associated inflammation. However, how ERS mechanistically drives ferro...
