Glutathione protects iron homeostasis by controlling the redox state of iron (Fe Fe), supporting ferritin and transferrin function, and preventing iron-driven lipid peroxidation that triggers ferroptosis
Activated cells take up large amounts of glucose and glutamine and divert them to the PPP and lipid biosynthesis, respectively

We next tested KIR-Fc binding to the same peptide-exchanged open-HLA-C*05:01 molecules displayed on CombiCells, measuring binding by flow cytometry
pagophagia is so specific to iron deficiency it is considered diagnostic Sore or smooth tongue (atrophic glossitis), cracks at the corners of the mouth (angular cheilitis) Mood changes anxiety, low mood, irritability tied to disrupted dopamine synthesis Heart palpitations or a racing pulse If you are losing more hair than usual, fatigued despite sleeping well, or notice ice cravings, run a ferritin test before assuming the cause is something else
