Abstract
The causal link between iron and atherosclerosis has been debated. Recent studies have revisited the 'iron hypothesis' by showing that dietary iron overload or elevated non-transferrin bound iron (NTBI) aggravates atherosclerosis in mice by driving vascular dysfunction, thus identifying NTBI as a risk factor and therapeutic target for atherosclerosis.
