HFE gene variants are relatively common genetic variants in Caucasians. The H63D HFE genetic variant has been repeatedly associated with a number of neurodegenerative diseases. We developed neuroblastoma cell lines expressing different HFE polymorphisms to explore the mechanisms behind these

Iron accumulation and iron-related oxidative stress are involved in several pathological conditions and provide a rationale for the development of iron chelators as novel promising therapeutic strategies. Thus, we have recently synthesized multifunctional non-toxic, brain permeable iron chelating compounds, M30

To explore the effects of ferric ion on the differentiation from both RAW264.7 and bone marrow macrophages to osteoclast in vitro and bone resorption in vivo. In the presence of 50 ng/ml receptor activator of nuclear factor kappa-B ligand (RANKL)
The differentiation of myelin-forming Schwann cells (SC) is completed with the appearance of myelin proteins MBP and P(0) and a concomitant downregulation of markers GFAP and p75NTR, which are expressed by immature and adult non-myelin-forming SC. We have previously demonstrated

The aim of this study was to compare prospectively the image quality of magnetic resonance cholangiopancreatography (MRCP) using manganese chloride tetrahydrate (Bothdel Oral Solution 10) (MCT), a new negative oral contrast agent; ferric ammonium citrate (FerriSeltz powder 20%) (FAC); and
