Cat.No.S5742

Deferoxamine mesylate is the mesylate salt of Deferoxamine, which forms iron complexes and is used as a chelating agent. Deferoxamine is a ferroptosis inhibitor that stabilizes HIF-1α expression and improves HIF-1α transactivity in hypoxic and hyperglycemic states in vitro. Deferoxamine decreases beta-amyloid (Aβ) deposition and induces autophagy.Please do not prepare stock solutions with normal saline or PBS, as precipitation may occur.

Mechanism of Action

Targets/IC₅₀/Ki	HIF-1α ^[1] Beta Amyloid ^[1] Ferroptosis ^[2]
In vitro	Deferoxamine mesylate, the iron chelator and ferroptosis inhibitor, rescues neutrophil death induced by systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) serum, suggesting that ferroptosis may be the main form of neutrophil death in SLE.^[3]
In vivo	Deferoxamine mesylate (Ba 33112, Desferrioxamine B, DFOM, NSC 644468) is the mesylate salt of Deferoxamine, which forms iron complexes and is used as a chelating agent.
