Iron-carbohydrate complexes treating iron anaemia: Understanding the nano-structure and interactions with proteins through orthogonal characterisation

Antonia Neels, Marianne Liebi, Tiberiu Totu

Intravenous (IV) iron-carbohydrate complexes are widely used nanoparticles (NPs) to treat iron deficiency anaemia, often associated with medical conditions such as chronic kidney disease, heart failure and various inflammatory conditions. Even though a ple ...

Iron status influences non-alcoholic fatty liver disease in obesity through the gut microbiome

Xavier Fernandez-Real Girona

Background: The gut microbiome and iron status are known to play a role in the pathophysiology of nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD), although their complex interaction remains unclear. Results: Here, we applied an integrative systems medicine approa ...

Iron sequestration by transferrin 1 mediates nutritional immunity in Drosophila melanogaster

Bruno Lemaitre, Jean Philippe Boquete, Igor Iatsenko, Alice Marra, Jasquelin Peña

Iron sequestration is a recognized innate immune mechanism against invading pathogens mediated by iron-binding proteins called transferrins. Despite many studies on antimicrobial activity of transferrins in vitro, their specific in vivo functions are poorl ...

Low Fe(II) Concentrations Catalyze the Dissolution of Various Fe(III) (hydr)oxide Minerals in the Presence of Diverse Ligands and over a Broad pH Range

Janet Gordon Hering

Dissolution of Fe(III) (hydr)oxide minerals by siderophores (i.e., Fe-specific, biogenic ligands) is an important step in Fe acquisition in environments where Fe availability is low. The observed coexudation of reductants and ligands has raised the questio ...

Red blood cells ageing markers: a multi-parametric analysis

Gerardo Turcatti, Niels Erik Lion, Benjamin Rappaz, David Crettaz, Michel Prudent, Manon Sandra Bardyn

Background. Red blood cells collected in citrate-phosphate-dextrose can be stored for up to 42 days at 4 degrees C in saline-adenine-glucose-mannitol additive solution. During this controlled, but nevertheless artificial, ex vivo ageing, red blood cells ac ...

Iron Pincer Complexes as Catalysts and Intermediates in Alkyl Aryl Kumada Coupling Reactions

Rosario Scopelliti, Xile Hu, Matthew Wodrich, Gerald Bauer

Iron-catalyzed alkylaryl Kumada coupling has developed into an efficient synthetic method, yet its mechanism remains vague. Here, we apply a bis(oxazolinylphenyl)amido pincer ligand (Bopa) to stabilize the catalytically active Fe center, resulting in isola ...
