Introduction -thalassemia is the most common inherited disease, characterized by decreased or absent -globin chain synthesis and hemoglobin A production ( The incidence of myocardial iron overload in transfusion-dependent -thalassemia patients has increased from 11.4%15.1% in early studies to 26.1%36.7% in recent studies ( As iron loading progresses, the capacity of transferrin to bind and detoxify iron is eventually exceeded, leading to non-transferrin-bound iron in plasma, which promotes oxidative stress, mitochondrial dysfunction, and ferroptosis ( Mechanisms of myocardial injury caused by iron overload Studies have shown that iron myocardial overload causes myocardial dysfunction
Packaging was nice and good taste
GHK-Cu downregulates acute-phase and pro-inflammatory cytokines (TNF-?, IL-6), upregulates anti-oxidant defenses (including superoxide dismutase, Nrf2 and HO-1 pathways), and suppresses fibrotic signaling by inhibiting TGF-?1/Smad2/3 activation
And that raises questions about whether patients who might benefit and are interested will even be able to afford them
