Iron deficiency (ID) is the most common trace element deficiency in childhood. Recent studies have shown that late fetus period, neonatal period, and infancy are important periods for brain development, and ID during these periods may cause irreversible damage to brain development, including abnormal emotion and behavior, cognitive decline, and attention deficit, which may still be present in adulthood. Therefore, it should be taken seriously. This article summarizes the research advances in major mechanisms involved in brain developmental disorder due to ID in the early stage of life and related intervention measures.

Iron, a vital element for numerous peripheral and central nervous system functions, is a key player in DNA synthesis, gene expression, myelination, neurotransmission, and mitochondrial electron transport. Iron has utmost importance in various neurological functions, including neurotransmitter synthesis and brain cell metabolism. Migraine is a neurogliovascular disorder in which neuroinflammation plays a crucial role.

Rampant phospholipid peroxidation initiated by iron causes ferroptosis unless this is restrained by cellular defences. Ferroptosis is increasingly implicated in a host of diseases, and unlike other cell death programs the physiological initiation of ferroptosis is conceived to occur not by an endogenous executioner, but by the withdrawal of cellular guardians that otherwise constantly oppose ferroptosis induction. Here, we profile key ferroptotic defence strategies including iron regulation, phospholipid modulation and enzymes and metabolite systems: glutathione reductase (GR), Ferroptosis suppressor protein 1 (FSP1), NAD(P)H Quinone Dehydrogenase 1 (NQO1), Dihydrofolate reductase (DHFR), retinal reductases and retinal dehydrogenases (RDH) and thioredoxin reductases (TR).

Traumatic brain injury (TBI) presents significant risks concerning mortality and morbidity. Individuals who suffer from TBI may exhibit mood disorders, including anxiety and depression. Both preclinical and clinical research have established correlations between TBI and disturbances in the metabolism of amino acids, lipids, iron, zinc, and copper, which are implicated in the emergence of mood disorders post-TBI.

Low iron stores at birth may adversely influence child cognitive and motor development. The aims of this study were to assess cord blood iron levels and explore maternal and neonatal factors associated with iron status. Cord blood specimens (=46) were obtained from the BC Children's Hospital BioBank in Vancouver, Canada.
