Abstract
Ferroptosis is a novel form of regulated cell death that plays a key role in inhibiting tumor malignancy. The ferroptosis signalling cascade provides new opportunities for lung cancer therapy. Non‑coding RNA (ncRNA)‑mediated epigenetic modification can influence the vulnerability of cancer cells to ferroptosis in non‑small‑cell lung cancer (NSCLC). The present review describes the core molecular mechanisms underlying ferroptosis and the role of epigenetic mechanisms in regulating ferroptosis in NSCLC, as well as developments in understanding the ncRNA‑induced mechanisms that affect ferroptosis in NSCLC. The present review aimed to enhance understanding of the epigenetic mechanisms mediated by ncRNAs that modulate ferroptosis in NSCLC, highlighting a novel therapeutic strategy for NSCLC via the ncRNA‑ferroptosis axis.
