Iron Overload Mediates the Differential Cell Fate of Astrocytes from Neurons and Its Regulatory Mechanisms in Ischemic Stroke [PDF]
Iron accumulation and ferroptosis occur in the brain following ischemic stroke. However, the relationship between iron overload and cell type‐specific fates remains largely unclear.

The role of mitochondria in iron overload-induced damage [PDF]
Iron overload is a pathological condition characterized by the abnormal accumulation of iron within the body, which may result from excessive iron intake, disorders of iron metabolism, or specific disease states.

A 66-year-old male patient presented with a 4-month history of progressive muscle weakness. Twelve years prior to presentation he was evaluated for fatigue, weight loss, new-onset diabetes and elevated liver enzymes and was diagnosed with hereditary hemochromatosis, homozygous for the C282Y mutation in the HFE gene.

How early can myocardial iron overload occur in Beta thalassemia major? [PDF]
BACKGROUND: Myocardial siderosis is the most common cause of death in patients with beta thalassemia major(TM). This study aimed at investigating the occurrence, prevalence and severity of cardiac iron overload in a young Chinese population with beta TM.

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

Minihepcidins are rationally designed small peptides that mimic hepcidin activity in mice and may be useful for the treatment of iron overload [PDF]
Iron overload is the hallmark of hereditary hemochromatosis and a complication of iron-loading anemias such as β-thalassemia. Treatment can be burdensome and have significant side effects, and new therapeutic options are needed.
