Ferric iron uptake into cardiomyocytes of β-thalassemic mice is not through calcium channels

Iron-overload cardiomyopathy is a major cause of death in thalassemic patients. However, pathways of non-transferrin-bound iron (NTBI) uptake into cardiomyocytes under iron-overload conditions are still controversial. We previously demonstrated that Fe2+ uptake in thalassemic cardiomyocytes is mainl...
