Abstract Epithelial ovarian cancer (EOC) is universally acknowledged as a terrifying women killer for its high mortality. Recent research advances support that ferroptosis, an emerging iron-dependent type of regulated cell death (RCD) triggered by the excessive accumulation of lipid peroxides probably possesses extraordinary therapeutic potential in EOC therapy. Herein, we firstly provide a very concise introduction of ferroptosis. Special emphasis will be put on the ferroptosis’s vital role in EOC, primarily covering its role in tumorigenesis and progression of EOC, the capability of reversing chemotherapy resistance, and the research and development of related therapeutic strategies. Furthermore, the construction of ferroptosis-related prognostic prediction systems, and mechanisms of ferroptosis resistance in EOC are also discussed. Finally, we propose and highlight several important yet unanswered problems and some future research directions in this field. |
