Iron accumulation in neurodegenerative diseases drives both metabolic reprogramming and inflammasome activation in microglia through ferroptosis-related pathways. A dual approach targeting iron chelation with ferroptosis inhibitors could simultaneously restore metabolic function and reduce inflammasome activation.
