Intracellular Iron Chelation Modulates the Macrophage Iron Phenotype with Consequences on Tumor Progression.
A growing body of evidence suggests that macrophage polarization dictates the expression of iron-regulated genes. Polarization towards iron sequestration depletes the microenvironment, whereby extracellular pathogen growth is limited and inflammation is fostered. In contrast, iron release contribute...
