To evaluate the efficacy of new deferasirox analogues for treating iron overload in a mouse model.
In vitro assessment of chelation efficiency using calcein fluorescence in solution.
Intracellular iron chelation evaluated in H9c2 cells loaded with iron.
In vivo treatment of iron-overloaded C57BL/6 mice with deferasirox analogues and measurement of serum ferritin and organ iron levels.
C1 showed rapid chelation comparable to deferasirox, while C4 exhibited slower activity.
Both analogues effectively chelated intracellular iron in H9c2 cells.
C4 treatment indicated a trend towards reduced serum ferritin and hemosiderin deposition compared to untreated controls.

New deferasirox-derived compounds improved iron chelation in C57BL/6 mice, suggesting potential for better therapies.

Borges et al. (2025) studied this question.
