Deferiprone

We are offering deferiprone.
Deferiprone is an iron chelator. The mechanism of action of deferiprone is as an iron chelating activity.
Deferiprone is an orally bioavailable bidentate ligand with iron chelating activity. Deferiprone binds to iron in a 3:1 (ligand:iron) molar ratio. By binding to iron, deferiprone is able to remove excess iron from the body.
Deferiprone, also described as 1,2-dimethyl-3-hydroxypyrid-4-one, is a hydroxypyrid-4-one compound utilized as a specific chelator of iron in biological systems. Deferiprone has been described in studies investigating the excretion of iron in iron overloaded systems, and the excreted chelated species in a study of iron overloaded rabbits demonstrates a specificity of deferiprone for iron over copper, zinc, calcium and magnesium.
