Iron inhibits the nitric oxide synthesis elicited by asbestos in murine macrophages.
    Free radical biology & medicine, 2001, Aug-01, Volume: 31, Issue:3

    Crocidolite fibers stimulated nitric oxide synthase (NOS) activity and expression in glial and alveolar murine macrophages: this effect was inhibited by iron supplementation and enhanced by iron chelation. We suggest that in these cells crocidolite stimulates NOS expression by decreasing the iron bioavailability and activating an iron-sensitive transcription factor.
