In this issue of Neuron, Kaur et al. demonstrate that iron chelation by ferritin transgene or the metal chelator clioquinol prevent oxidative damage and MPTP toxicity in mice. This raises the issue of specific iron chelators or clioquinol for control of oxidative damage in Parkinson's, Alzheimer's, and other neurodegenerative diseases, but not without safety concerns.
The mechanisms used by Paracoccidioides brasiliensis to survive into phagocytic cells are not clear. Cellular iron metabolism is of critical importance to the growth of several intracellular pathogens whose capacity to multiply in mononuclear phagocytes is dependent on the availability of intracellular iron. Thus, the objective of this paper was to investigate the role of intracellular iron in ...
Many Korean patients with transfusion-induced iron overload experience serious clinical sequelae, including organ damage, and require lifelong chelation therapy. However, due to a lack of compliance and/or unavailability of an appropriate chelator, most patients have not been treated effectively. Deferasirox (DFX), a once-daily oral iron chelator for both adult and pediatric patients with trans...
For nearly 30 years, patients with transfusional iron overload have depended on nightly deferoxamine infusions for iron chelation. Despite dramatic gains in life expectancy in the deferoxamine era for patients with transfusion-dependent anemias, the leading cause of death for young adults with thalassemia major and related disorders has been cardiac disease from myocardial iron deposition. Stra...
Chelatable iron is an important catalyst for the initiation and propagation of free radical reactions and implicated in the pathogenesis of diverse neuronal disorders. Studies in our laboratory have shown that mitochondria are the principal source of reactive oxygen species production after status epilepticus (SE). We asked whether SE modulates mitochondrial iron levels by two independent metho...
By M. D. GERLANC, E. J. ZAPOLSKJ, M. Rurnr r AND J. V. Pm aorro P ESFERRIOXAMINE, the sideramine of the Actinomyces, is a potent chelator of ferric iron.1’2 It is believed that all aerobic organisms produce sideramines which function as specific iron donors ( coenzymes ) for the iron incorporating enzyme of the heme synthesis.a.4 I,, light of the role of ferrioxanlines in henle synthesis in mic...
Elemental iron is essential for cellular growth and homeostasis but it is potentially toxic to the cells and tissues. Excess iron can contribute in tumor initiation and tumor growth. Obviously, in iron overload issues using an iron chelator in order to reduce iron concentration seems to be vital. This study presents the density functional theory calculations of the electronic structure and equi...
Hepcidin has been implicated as the iron stores regulator: a hepatic signaling molecule that regulates intestinal iron absorption by undefined mechanisms. The possibility that hepcidin regulates the expression of ferroportin 1 (FPT1), the basolateral iron transporter, was examined in rats after administration of LPS, an iron chelator, or His-tagged recombinant hepcidin (His-rHepc). In the liver...
Sirtinol is a known inhibitor of sirtuin proteins, a family of deacetylases involved in the pathophysiology of aging. Spectroscopic and structural data reveal that this compound is also an iron chelator forming high-spin ferric species in vitro and in cultured leukemia cells. Interactions with the highly regulated iron pool therefore contribute to its overall intracellular agenda.
PROPOSAL The World Health Organization Model List of Essential Medicines and Model Formulary 2010 list deferoxamine (DFO) as the treatment of choice for both acute and chronic iron poisoning. The Model Formulary currently does not designate any orally administered agents for the chelation of iron. It is proposed that deferasirox be considered the oral chelator of choice in the treatment of chro...
