Mechanisms of inhibition of mononuclear cell activation by the iron-chelating agent desferrioxamine.
Polson, R J, Jenkins, R, Lombard, M, Williams, A C, Roberts, S, Nouri-Aria, K, ...
Iron-withholding by the chelating agent desferrioxamine abrogates the proliferative response of human peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMC) to phytohaemagglutinin (PHA). The present study...
Enhancement of photodynamic therapy in gastric cancer cells by removal of iron.
Tan, W C, Krasner, N, O'Toole, P, Lombard, M
