ABCB7 Attivatori

Gli attivatori ABCB7 più comuni includono, a titolo esemplificativo, la deferoxamina CAS 70-51-9, la diidroartemisinina CAS 71939-50-9, il ferro(III) citrato di ammonio CAS 1185-57-5, il molibdato di sodio CAS 7631-95-0 e la N-acetil-L-cisteina CAS 616-91-1.

ABCB7 activators are a class of chemicals that, whether directly or indirectly, can influence the activity of the ABCB7 protein, a vital transporter in the inner mitochondrial membrane. These chemicals primarily mediate their influence through alterations in iron homeostasis or pathways related to iron-sulfur cluster formation.

Key representatives of this category include iron chelators such as Deferoxamine and Dipyridyl. By influencing iron homeostasis, these compounds indirectly affect ABCB7's crucial role in iron export, ensuring appropriate iron-sulfur cluster formation. Additionally, substances like Dihydroartemisinin and Ferric citrate alter cellular iron levels, which could modulate ABCB7's function. This delicate balance between iron availability and utilization is further exemplified by chemicals like Sodium molybdate and N-acetylcysteine that can impact iron-sulfur cluster assembly and formation, respectively. Similarly, compounds influencing heme synthesis, such as 5-Aminolevulinic acid and Succinylacetone, have a knock-on effect on ABCB7 due to their role in altering intracellular iron dynamics. Given the intertwined relationship between iron and ABCB7's function, understanding the impacts of these chemicals is crucial to comprehending the broader cellular iron dynamics.
