A novel mutation in NDUFB11 unveils a new clinical phenotype associated with lactic acidosis and sideroblastic anemia [PDF]
NDUFB11, a component of mitochondrial complex I, is a relatively small integral membrane protein, belonging to the 'supernumerary' group of subunits, but proved to be absolutely essential for the assembly of an active complex I.

Lavandula angustifolia and Cyperus rotundus Extract Treatments Ameliorate Copper Toxicity in Rats
High levels of copper can lead to spatial learning and memory disorders. Extracts from L. angustifolia and C. rotundus have the potential to remove copper from the body and reduce its harmful effects. They achieve this by increasing the expression of the BDNF gene while decreasing the expression of IL‐6, IL1‐B, Caspase‐3, and TNF‐α genes in the ...

Chelator-facilitated removal of iron from transferrin: Relevance to combined chelation therapy [PDF]
Current iron chelation therapy consists primarily of DFO (desferrioxamine), which has to be administered via intravenous infusion, together with deferiprone and deferasirox, which are orally-active chelators.

M1 Macrophage‐Derived Extracellular Particles Induce Cell Death in MDA‐MB‐231 Cells
ABSTRACT Background Triple‐negative breast cancer (TNBC), a leading cause of female mortality worldwide, presents a treatment challenge due to the lack of targeted receptors. Macrophages, recognized for their role in the immune response, provide a promising avenue for cancer research.

The Role of Iron Chelation Therapy in Colorectal Cancer: A Systematic Review on Its Mechanisms and Therapeutic Potential [PDF]
Iron chelation is a promising yet underexplored strategy for colorectal cancer (CRC) treatment. Iron chelators have a dual role in inhibiting and potentially promoting cancer progression. Iron chelation affects key CRC pathways, including histone methylation, NDRG1 upregulation, Wnt/β‐catenin, and p53 modulation.
