Icariin Protects Bone Marrow Mesenchymal Stem Cells Against Iron Overload Induced Dysfunction Through Mitochondrial Fusion and Fission, PI3K/AKT/mTOR and MAPK Pathways
Iron overload has been reported to contribute to bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells (BMSCs) damage, but the precise mechanism still remains elusive. Icariin, a major bioactive monomer belonging to flavonoid glucosides isolated from Herba Epimedii, has been shown to protect cells from oxidative stres...
