Dietary polyphenols are markedly studied for their antioxidant activity. They also have a negative impact on nutrition whereby they interfere with iron absorption. Common dietary polyphenols include: catechins, flavonols, flavanols, flavones, anthocyanins, proanthocyanidins and phenolic acids. Ascorbic acid (AA) and Ethylenediaminetetraacetic acid (EDTA) are commonly used to counter act this reaction and increase iron bioavailability. This study was aimed at determining the effect of AA and EDTA on the catechol or galloyl iron binding ability of pure phenolics, coffee and tea. Phenolic concentrations of 40, 80, 610, 240, 320, 400, 520 and 900 μg/ml were tested against six levels of AA and EDTA. These effects were studied in detail using Multivariate Analysis of Variance (MANOVA) with the hypothesis that there would be one or more mean differences between the ratio of enhancer and the different concentrations of samples tested. AA was found to be more efficient than EDTA in a way that lesser quantity is required for completely overcoming negative iron binding effects of polyphenols and similar samples.

Background: Interactions between RNA-binding proteins and RNA regulate RNA transcription during osteoporosis. Ferroptosis, a programmed cell death caused by iron metabolism, plays a vital role in osteoporosis. However, the mechanisms by which RNA-binding proteins are involved in ferroptosis during osteoporosis remain unclear.

Ferroptosis is a classic type of programmed cell death characterized by iron dependence, which is closely associated with many diseases such as cancer, intestinal ischemic diseases, and nervous system diseases. Transferrin (Tf) is responsible for ferric-ion delivery owing to its natural Fe binding ability and plays a crucial role in ferroptosis. However, Tf is not considered as a classic druggable target for ferroptosis-associated diseases since systemic perturbation of Tf would dramatically disrupt blood iron homeostasis.

CYP105A1 exhibits monooxygenase activity to a wide variety of structurally different substrates with regio- and stereospecificity, making its application range broad. Our previous studies have shown that CYP105A1 wild type and its variants metabolize 12 types of nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs). In particular, the R84A variant exhibited a high activity against many NSAIDs.

Background: Imbalanced Fe levels can lead to oxidative stress and initiate ferroptosis, an Fe-dependent cell death that involves lipid peroxidation and can lead to neuron cell loss in neurodegenerative diseases including Alzheimer's disease (AD). While the Fe/Fe ratio has been identified as the primary determining factor for lipid peroxidation, the role of Fe redox equilibrium and dynamic in AD is not well understood, due to limited tools for visualizing Fe and Fe simultaneously. To overcome this limitation, we recently reported DNAzyme-based sensors for simultaneous imaging of Fe and Fe.

Background: A better understanding of the molecular process that drive Alzheimer's disease(AD) are required to develop effective biomarkers and therapies. This includes determining how essential elements like Fe, Cu and Zn are involved in the disease. In the literature there is debate over the role of iron in AD and there are reports of increased, decreased and unchanged levels of Fe in AD brain.
