Oral ferrous fumarate or intravenous iron sucrose for patients with inflammatory bowel disease
Objective: Iron therapy may reinforce intestinal inflammation by catalysing production of reactive oxygen species. The effects of oral ferrous fumarate and intravenous iron sucrose on clinical disease activity and plasma redox status were investigated in patients with inflammatory bowel disease (IBD). Material and methods: Nineteen patients with iron deficiency anaemia and Crohn’s disease (11) or ulcerative colitis…

A pilot study on secondary anemia in “frailty” patients treated with Ferric Sodium EDTA in combination with vitamin C, folic acid, copper gluconate, zinc gluconate and selenomethionine: safety of treatment explored by HRV non-linear analysis as predictive factor of cardiovascular tolerability
Objective: Iron deficiency anemia (IDA) in patients with heart disease is correlated with decreased exercise capacity and poor health-related quality of life, and predicts worse cardiovascular outcomes, especially for elderly patients. IDA can worsen cardiac function that can be monitored with Heart Rate Variability (HRV) analysis, providing important information about cardiac health. In a recent study…

Evaluation of in vitro activity of copper gluconate against SARS-CoV-2 using confocal microscopy-based high content screening
Context: Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome Coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) that emerged late in 2019 is the etiologic agent of coronavirus disease 2019 (Covid-19). There is an urgent need to develop curative and preventive therapeutics to limit the current pandemic and to prevent the re-emergence of Covid-19. This study aimed to assess the in vitro activity of copper…

Role of ferritinophagy in cystine deprivation-induced cell death in glioblastoma cells
Ferroptosis is a form of cell death caused by iron-dependent lipid peroxidation. Cancer cells increase cystine uptake for the synthesis of glutathione (GSH), which is used by glutathione peroxidase 4 to reduce lipid peroxides. Here, we report that cystine deprivation in glioblastoma cells, but not inhibition of GSH synthesis by l-buthionine sulfoximine (BSO), induces ferroptosis.…

In vitro loading of apoferritin
This study compared the effect of loading apoferritin either with ferrous ammonium sulfate in various buffers or with ceruloplasmin and chelated ferrous iron. It was shown that loading of apoferritin with ferrous ammonium sulfate was dependent on buffer and pH, and was directly related to the rate of iron autoxidation. The ceruloplasmin-dependent loading of apoferritin,…

Modified ferrous ammonium sulfate benzoic acid xyelenol orange (MFBX) and thermoluminescent dosimeters–a comparative study
Radiation dosimetry deals with the determination of absorbed dose to the medium exposed to ionizing radiation. Chemical dosimetry depends on oxidation or reduction of chemicals by ionizing radiation. A ferrous ammonium sulfate benzoic acid xyelenol orange (FBX) dosimeter based on this principle is being used as a clinical dosimeter at present. Certain modifications were carried…

Bioleaching of heavy metals from sewage sludge by indigenous iron-oxidizing microorganisms using ammonium ferrous sulfate and ferrous sulfate as energy sources: a comparative study
The potential of indigenous iron-oxidizing microorganisms enriched at initial neutral pH of the sewage sludge for bioleaching of heavy metals was investigated at initial neutral pH of the sludge using ammonium ferrous sulfate (FAS) and ferrous sulfate (FS) as an energy sources in two different sets of experiments. After 16 days of bioleaching, 56% Cu,…

Oral ferrous citrate or ferrous sulfate use during predialysis may reduce serum phosphate level at dialysis initiation
Aim: Some reports claim that intravenous iron supplements reduce serum phosphate levels in patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD), including those on dialysis. However, whether divalent oral iron supplements influence serum phosphate levels in patients with CKD remains unclear; thus, this study aimed to address this topic. Materials and methods: The study database was derived from the…
