Deferiprone is an iron chelator that binds to iron in a 3:1 (ligand:iron) ratio and has antioxidant and neuroprotective activities.{42958} It reduces levels of intracellular iron and inhibits lipid peroxidation in primary rat hepatocytes when used at concentrations of 200 and 50 µM, respectively.{42959} Deferiprone reduces cholesterol diet-induced increases in the levels of amyloid-β (1-42) (Aβ42), Aβ40, and the phosphorylation of tau and glycogen synthase kinase-3β (GSK-3β) in the rabbit hippocampus when administered at a dose of 50 mg/kg.{42960} Formulations containing deferiprone have been used in the treatment of thalassemia.
