The invention discloses an application of miR-486-3p targeting ACSL4 (acyltransferase) in regulation of testicular ferroptosis. The invention is based on the discovery that ACSL4 is a target gene of miR-486-3p in plateau zokor and participates in androgen regulated seasonal spermatogenesis. According to the invention, the functions of the miR-486-3p and the ACSL4 are researched by using a mouse. A dual-luciferase verification report shows that the expression of the miR-486-3p in a mouse is regulated and controlled by combining 3UTR of the ACSL4 gene. In vitro, testicular sertoli cells regulated by androgen signals are used as research objects, and the fact that the proliferation, oxidative stress and ferroptosis of the cells are regulated by miR-486-3p targeting ACSL4 is found. In vivo, oxidative stress and ferroptosis of mouse testis are caused by inhibition of miR-486-3p expression, and sperms are abnormal. MiR-486-3p is overexpressed in testis with ferroptosis, so that accumulation of peroxide in tissues is relieved, and sensitivity to ferroptosis is reduced.
