Application Notes

Deferoxamine (DFO) is a siderophore isolated from Streptomyces pilosus. The mesylate salt of DFO is used clinically to treat conditions of iron overload. DFO has antibacterial, cytoprotective and antioxidant activity. DFO promotes revascularization via the activation of vascular endothelial cell function by an Akt-​eNOS-​dependent mechanism. DFO decreases beta-amyloid deposition and induces autophagy.
