Intranasal deferoxamine can improve memory in healthy C57 mice, suggesting a partially non‐disease‐specific pathway of functional neurologic improvement

Abstract: Introduction Intranasal deferoxamine (IN DFO) has been shown to decrease memory loss and have beneficial impacts across several models of neurologic disease and injury, including rodent models of Alzheimer's and Parkinson's disease. Methods In order to assess the mechanism of DFO, determine its ability to improve memory from baseline in the absence of a diseased state, and assess targeting ability of intranasal delivery, we treated healthy mice with IN DFO (2.4 mg) or intraperitoneal (IP) DFO and compared beha… Show more

“…DFO, developed over half a century ago, is the most potent and widely used of several FDA-approved iron chelators [ 17 , 18 ]. These therapeutics were originally developed to address systemic iron overload states such as transfusion-dependent thalassemia major but have since seen significant preclinical and clinical development for use across cancer [ 19 , 20 , 21 ], imaging [ 22 , 23 ], and neurological disease [ 24 , 25 , 26 , 27 , 28 , 29 , 30 , 31 , 32 , 33 , 34 , 35 , 36 , 37 , 38 , 39 , 40 , 41 , 42 ]. DFO has a short plasma half-life and is typically challenging to deliver systemically, with most delivery methods involving long courses of intravenous (IV) infusion or intramuscular (IM) injection [ 43 ].…”

“…HIF-1α activates an elaborate transcriptional program designed as an organized cellular response to hypoxia, mediated principally by vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF), erythropoietin (EPO), inducible nitric oxide synthase (iNOS), and insulin-like growth factor (IGF) [ 40 , 75 , 76 ]. By these pathways, iron chelators including IN DFO have been found to reverse the accumulation of protein aggregates [ 28 , 30 , 33 , 34 , 77 , 78 , 79 ], suppress neuroinflammation [ 31 , 38 , 77 , 80 , 81 , 82 , 83 , 84 ], protect against oxidative stress and neuronal injury [ 30 , 31 , 32 , 36 , 81 , 83 , 85 ], improve cerebrovascular function [ 25 , 37 , 40 , 76 ], activate pro-survival signaling pathways [ 30 , 31 , 32 , 33 , 34 , 35 , 36 , 76 ], bolster cerebral glucose metabolism [ 30 , 31 , 35 ], and strengthen synaptic function [ 35 , 86 , 87 ] ( Figure 1 ).
