Protective effects of deferasirox and N-acetyl-L-cysteine on iron overload-injured bone marrow

Brazilian Journal of Medical and Biological Research, 2017
Using an iron overload mouse model, we explored the protective effect of deferasirox (DFX) and N-acetyl-L-cysteine (NAC) on injured bone marrow hematopoietic stem/progenitor cells (HSPC) induced by iron overload. Mice were intraperitoneally injected with

Iron Overload

AbstractIron overload/toxicity is an unavoidable consequence in several diseases characterized by anemia and red blood cell transfusion requirement. Iron toxicity can impact on transplant outcome by increasing oxidative stress. Impact of iron toxicity is different in the different stages of HCT.

Orchestrated regulation of iron trafficking proteins in the kidney during iron overload facilitates systemic iron retention. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2018
The exact route of iron through the kidney and its regulation during iron overload are not completely elucidated. Under physiologic conditions, non-transferrin and transferrin bound iron passes the glomerular filter and is reabsorbed through kidney ...

Neuroprotective Role of α-Lipoic Acid in Iron-Overload-Mediated Toxicity and Inflammation in In Vitro and In Vivo Models

Antioxidants, 2022
Hemoglobin and iron overload is considered the major contributor to intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH)-induced brain injury. Accumulation of iron in the brain leads to microglia activation, inflammation and cell loss.

Absence of gut microbiota alleviates iron overload-induced colitis by modulating ferroptosis in mice

Journal of Advanced Research
Introduction: Iron overload disrupts gut microbiota and induces ferroptosis, contributing to colitis. However, whether gut microbiota directly drives iron overload-induced colitis and its underlying mechanism remain unclear.

Current Review of Iron Overload and Related Complications in Hematopoietic Stem Cell Transplantation

Turkish Journal of Hematology, 2017
Iron overload is an adverse prognostic factor for patients undergoing hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT). In the HSCT setting, pretransplant and early posttransplant ferritin and transferrin saturation were found to be highly elevated due to ...
