Using Aadac knockout (KO) mice, we demonstrated that CCl4, APAP, and amodiaquine induced more severe liver damage in the absence of Aadac, with elevated ferrous (Fe2+) levels, lipid peroxidation, and oxidative stress...Furthermore, human AADAC overexpression in Huh-7 cells similarly reduced intracellular Fe2+ levels and conferred protection against CCl4-induced cytotoxicity in a ceruloplasmin-dependent manner. These findings reveal a novel, non-catalytic role for AADAC in iron homeostasis and ferroptosis suppression, suggesting its clinical significance in DILI susceptibility and therapy.
