Ferroheme is the ferrous form of heme that functions primarily as an oxygen carrier through reversible oxygen binding. Its free form is known to induce oxidative stress and ferroptosis by releasing iron ions, which facilitate the generation of reactive oxygen species via Fenton reactions. This mechanism plays a significant role in pathological conditions such as intracerebral hemorrhage and neurodegenerative diseases, making Ferroheme a valuable reagent for research into iron-overload disorders and the mechanisms underlying ferroptosis-related pathologies.
