    Elucidation of a Novel Protective Function of AADAC Against Drug-induced Liver Injury through Ferroptosis Suppression (PubMed, Yakugaku Zasshi)
    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.
