Progress of Immunotherapies in Parkinson's Disease
Parkinson's disease (PD) is caused by an immune disorder triggered by α‐synuclein, leading to a persistent neuroinflammatory cycle that drives the disease from non‐motor symptoms to the motor stage. Second, it presents active and passive immunotherapy strategies targeting α‐synuclein and their potential in slowing down the disease progression.

Generation of reactive oxygen species by hydroxypyridone compound/iron complexes
Objectives: Prooxidant properties of iron-binding hydroxypyridone compounds including deferiprone and mimosine were analyzed. Methods: Hydroxypyridone/iron-dependent production of reactive oxygen species was evidenced by the inactivation of aconitase ...

Plasmacytoid Dendritic Cells Exhibit High Transferrin Receptor Expression Without Iron Accumulation
• pDCs are defined by high surface TFRC expression and dynamic iron flux, distinguishing them from conventional dendritic cell subsets. • In the Iron proteome, pDC are enriched for mitochondrial heme and Fe–S proteins but have similar iron storage to cDC. • Iron chelation does not disrupt pDC type‐1 IFN production. ABSTRACT Plasmacytoid dendritic cells
