I J The development of gastrointestinal absorption function in humans was studied using riboflavin, a vitamin which is absorbed by a site-specific (proximal small intestine) and saturable transport process. Oral doses of 150 mg./m.z body surface area of riboflavin-5'-phosphate were administered in s
Bioavailability of dietary iron is affected by many factors in the diet. But the mechanism of iron translocation from intestinal lumen to the mucosa cell and its regulation are obscure. Previous research has shown a possible role of fatty acids in the brush-border membrane as an iron carrier. To inv
## BACKGROUND. The siderophore desferrioxamine mesylate (DFO) is used routinely in clinical practice to treat diseases of iron (Fe) overload. Recent studies suggest that DFO and other chelators may have potential in the treatment of cancer. The current study reports the findings obtained when a nu
