Phase-dependent iron depletion differentially regulates the niche of intestinal stem cells in experimental colitis via ERK/STAT3 signaling pathway by Shubin Wang, Xiangjun Liu, Lu Xu, Jinyi Lang, Dengqun Liu, Dengqun Liu

“…Early DFO-induced iron depletion was able to maintain the p-STAT3 and p-ERK1/2 signaling pathways within the colonic epithelium at the early phase of colitis, but late DFO treatment inhibited the activity of these two pathways.DiscussionOur study demonstrated that the manipulation of iron depletion by DFO might greatly affect the outcomes of experimental colitis in a phase-dependent manner, which suggests that the balance of iron metabolism might be an effective therapeutic target for the clinical treatment of IBD patients.…”
