Inhibition of ferroptosis attenuates tissue damage and improves long‐term outcomes after traumatic brain injury in mice

Aims Ferroptosis, a new form of iron‐dependent programmed cell death, has been shown to be involved in a range of diseases. However, the role of ferroptosis in traumatic brain injury (TBI) has yet to be elucidated. We aimed to investigate whether ferroptosis is induced after TBI and whether the inhibition of ferroptosis would protect against traumatic brain injury in a controlled cortical impact injury (CCI) mouse model.
