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.

Eltrombopag: a powerful chelator of cellular or extracellular iron(III) alone or combined with a second chelator [PDF]
Eltrombopag (ELT) is a thrombopoietin receptor agonist, also reported to decrease labile iron in leukemia cells. Here we examine the previously undescribed iron(III)-coordinating and cellular iron-mobilizing properties of ELT.

Development of a mugineic acid family phytosiderophore analog as an iron fertilizer
Iron is an essential plant nutrient that is poorly bioavailable in alkaline soils, resulting in reduced agricultural productivity. Here, the authors report the synthesis of stable and cheap iron-chelator, proline-2’-deoxymugineic acid (PDMA), and ...

Polymeric Iron Chelator with Enhanced Iron Affinity as a Broad-Spectrum Antifungal Agent
Developing broad-spectrum antifungal drugs represents a pressing need for reducing the global burden of fungal infections. We took advantage of the conformational stability effect to develop a high-avidity polymeric iron chelator, 2,3-dihydroxybenzoic ...
