Novel Antidepressant-Like Properties of the Iron Chelator Deferiprone in a Mouse Model of Depression
Depressed individuals who carry the short allele for the serotonin-transporter-linked promotor region of the gene are more vulnerable to stress and have reduced response to first-line antidepressants such as selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors. Since

Multi-center transferability of a breath-hold T2 technique for myocardial iron assessment. [PDF]
Background: Cardiac iron overload is the leading cause of death in thalassemia major and is usually assessed using myocardial T2* measurements. Recently a cardiovascular magnetic resonance (CMR) breath-hold T2 sequence has been developed as a possible ...

Chelation Combination—A Strategy to Mitigate the Neurotoxicity of Manganese, Iron, and Copper?
The chelating thiol dimercaptosuccinate (DMSA) and the traditional agent D-penicillamine (PSH) are effective in enhancing the urinary excretion of copper (Cu) and lead (Pb) in poisoned individuals. However, DMSA, PSH, EDTA (ethylenediamine tetraacetate),

Chelator-facilitated removal of iron from transferrin: Relevance to combined chelation therapy
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.
