    Schematic diagram illustrating the effects of targeted activation of ErbB4 receptor on neuronal aging via ferroptosis inhibition. Small molecule agonist (E4A)can activate ErbB4 receptors and regulate the Akt/Nrf2 signaling pathway to achieve neuroprotective effect in D-gal-induced neuronal aging. D-gal treatment increases the accumulation of advanced glycation end products (AGEs) which stimulates the production of reactive oxygen species (ROS) and increase the expression of senescence marker genes P53, P16, and P21. E4A can promote Akt1 phosphorylation and promote Nrf2 entrance into the nucleus, in which it involves in regulating the expression of ferroptosis suppressor gene, such as SLC7A11 and GPX4 to attenuate lipid peroxidation, which can inhibit cell ferroptosis and neuronal aging. The diagram was created with MedPeer ( www.medpeer.cn ).
