Safety and Efficacy of Iron Chelators in Patients With Chronic Kidney Disease: A Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis. [PDF]
ABSTRACT Background Iron overload in chronic kidney disease contributes to oxidative injury. The role of iron chelators, standard in transfusion‐related overload, remains unclear in chronic kidney disease. Aim To evaluate the efficacy and safety of iron chelators in adults with chronic kidney disease.

Wnt5a is a key target for the pro-osteogenic effects of iron chelation on osteoblast progenitors
Iron overload due to hemochromatosis or chronic blood transfusions has been associated with the development of osteoporosis. However, the impact of changes in iron homeostasis on osteoblast functions and the underlying mechanisms are poorly defined ...

Ferroptosis Suppression by the M<sup>6</sup>A Reader IGF2BP1 Underlies Gemcitabine Resistance in Pancreatic Ductal Adenocarcinoma. [PDF]
IGF2BP1 promotes gemcitabine resistance in pancreatic cancer by stabilizing m6A‐modified FTH1 transcripts and protecting them in stress granules, thereby suppressing ferroptosis. Pharmacological inhibition of IGF2BP1 disrupts this protective pathway, restores ferroptotic sensitivity, and enhances gemcitabine efficacy in resistant tumors.

Iron Effects on Clostridioides difficile Toxin Production and Antimicrobial Susceptibilities
Despite the benefits of red blood cell (RBC) transfusion therapy, it can render patients vulnerable to iron overload. The excess iron deposits in various body tissues cause severe complications and organ damage such as cardiotoxicity and mold infections.
