Moreover, specific regulators of ferroptosis, including ELAV-like RNA binding protein 1 (ELAVL1) (Zhang et al., 2018), bromodomain-containing protein 7 (BRD7) (Zhang et al., 2020a), ZFP36 ring finger protein (ZFP36) (Zhang et al., 2020b), and tripartite motif-containing protein 26 (TRIM26) (Zhu et al., 2021), have been reported to play crucial roles in regulating ferroptosis in HSCs and function as promising targets in preventing liver fibrosis. This evidence concerns the gene TRIM26 and Hepatic fibrosis.
