Iron Chelator Design [PDF]

open access: possible, 1994
The design of an orally active, non-toxic, selective iron chelator has been a goal of many medical chemists over the past twenty years. Naturally occurring siderophores provide excellent models for such molecules, indeed, desferrioxamine has been and still remains an extremely useful iron chelator.

Hyperferritinemia in patients with COVID-19: An opportunity for iron chelation?

Artificial Organs, 2020
Studies from China on Covid-19 revealed that non-survivors had cytokine storm with high IL-6 and hyperferritinemia. Iron liberated from necrotic cells may catalyze free radical production and amplify lipid peroxidation causing membrane dysfunction and ...

Oral Iron Chelators

Hematology/Oncology Clinics of North America, 2008
Effective chelation therapy can prevent or reverse organ toxicity related to iron overload, yet cardiac complications and premature death continue to occur, largely related to difficulties with compliance in patients who receive parenteral therapy. The use of oral chelators may be able to overcome these difficulties and improve patient outcomes.

Iron-Chelating Therapy

CRC Critical Reviews in Clinical Laboratory Sciences, 1988
Because of the catalytic action of iron in one-electron redox reactions, it has a key role in the formation of harmful oxygen derivatives and production of peroxidative damage to vital cellular structures. The clinical manifestations of iron overload may be prevented and even reversed by the effective administration of the iron-chelating drug ...

Effects of Iron Chelation in Osteosarcoma

Current Cancer Drug Targets, 2021
Background: Osteosarcoma is an aggressive bone tumor. Itrepresents the principal cause of cancer-associated death in children.Considering the recent findings on the role of iron in cancer, iron chelation has been investigated for its antineoplastic properties in many tumors.

CHELATE IRON THERAPY

Journal of the American Medical Association, 1958
Administration of effective doses of iron in the treatment of iron deficiency anemia is complicated by the fact that iron compounds are not innocuous. Toxicity experiments on dogs and rabbits are here summarized; they showed that the concentration of iron attained in the animal's serum determined the severity of the acute symptoms.

Iron Chelator Chemistry

2002
Iron overload is a serious clinical condition which can be largely prevented by the use of iron-specific chelating agents. Desferrioxamine-B(1)the most widely used iron chelator in haematology over the past thirty years, has a major disadvantage of being orally inactive’.

Hydroxyquinolines as Iron Chelators

Current Medicinal Chemistry, 2003
The interest in synthetic siderophore mimics includes therapeutic applications (iron chelation therapy), the design of more effective agents to deliver Fe to plants and the development of new chemical tools for studies of iron metabolism and for a better understanding of iron assimilation processes in living systems.

The Role of Deferiprone in Iron Chelation.

New England Journal of Medicine, 2018
Iron Chelation Iron overload can compromise the cardiac, hepatic, renal, and endocrine systems. Orally active iron chelators increase iron excretion, and in some instances, the combination of oral ...

Chelation of iron by sugars

Biochimica et Biophysica Acta, 1963
Abstract Reducing sugars and polyols are shown to form soluble stable complexes with a series of metal ions at alkaline pH. Several properties of an iron-fructose complex have been studied. The specific conditions of pH and concentrations of iron and fructose necessary for complex formation are described. Evidence for the existence of the complex is (
