Funded Activity Summary

Iron is crucial for many essential biological processes. Recently, I demonstrated that iron-depletion can affects signalling pathways that play important roles in cellular growth and death. This study is designed to investigate the cellular and molecular effects of iron depletion which currently remains unclear. My proposed research is crucial for understanding: (1) the effects of iron-deficiency and (2) for understanding the effects of iron chelators that are used for treating various diseases.
