The Role of AMP-activated Protein Kinase in Oxytosis/Ferroptosis: Protector or Potentiator?

Evidence for a role for the oxytosis/ferroptosis regulated cell death pathway in aging and neurodegenerative diseases has been growing over the past few years. Because of this, there is an increasing necessity to identify endogenous signaling pathways that can be modulated to protect cells from this form of cell death.
