Key Points

The study aims to explore the relationship between ferroptosis-related proteins and erectile dysfunction severity.
Analyzed circulating levels of ferroptosis-related proteins in relation to erectile dysfunction severity.
Examined the combination of biomarkers for their diagnostic value.
Evaluated potential therapeutic implications based on biomarker levels.
Identified significant associations among ACSL4, SLC7A11, and GPX4 with erectile dysfunction.
Circulating levels of biomarkers indicated varying severity of erectile dysfunction.
Combination of ferroptosis-related markers showed strong diagnostic value for erectile dysfunction.

Abstract

Circulating ferroptosis-related markers, particularly in combination, provide strong diagnostic value for ED and reflect disease severity. GPX4, SLC7A11, and ACSL4 may serve as promising biomarkers and potential therapeutic targets for ED management.
