Dietary Iron Supplementation Protects Against Growth Restriction and Metabolic Dysfunction‐Associated Steatotic Liver Disease in Perinatal Cadmium‐Exposed Mice

open access: yesFASEB BioAdvances, Volume 7, Issue 8, August 2025.
Developmental cadmium (Cd) exposure causes iron deficiency (ID) and impacts growth and metabolism. To test whether iron (Fe) supplementation prevents Cd‐induced effects, female mice were given water and normal chow, or water with Cd in combination with normal chow or chow fortified with 2× or 5× Fe.
