High-affinity iron (Fe) scavenging compounds, or siderophores, are widely employed by soil bacteria to survive scarcity in bioavailable Fe. Siderophore biosynthesis relies on cellular carbon metabolism, despite reported decrease in both carbon uptake and Fe-containing metabolic proteins in Fe-def...
The effects of iron deficiency (ID) during infancy extend beyond the hematologic compartment and include short- and long-term adverse effects on many tissues including the brain. However, sensitive biomarkers of iron-dependent brain health are lacking in humans. To determine whether serum and cer...
GBM displays profound iron dependence and metabolic plasticity, yet how iron deprivation interfaces with stress-response pathways and amino acid metabolism in glioma remains incompletely understood. DFO, an iron chelator and hypoxia mimetic, is widely used experimentally, but the integration of a...
