The Fungal Iron Chelator Desferricoprogen Inhibits Atherosclerotic Plaque Formation

Hemoglobin, heme and iron are implicated in the progression of atherosclerosis. Therefore, we investigated whether the hydrophobic fungal iron chelator siderophore, desferricoprogen (DFC) inhibits atherosclerosis. DFC reduced atherosclerotic plaque formation in ApoE(−/−) mice on an atherogenic diet....
