Article Abstract

Long-term treatment of anemia involving frequent blood transfusions and intravenous iron administration increases the risks of hepatic iron overload and steatosis in the patients undergoing hemodialysis.Pathological accumulation of iron damages hepatocytes,not only elevating the risks of progressive hepatic fibrosis and cirrhosis but also potentially accelerating the process of hepatic steatosis.Iron overload and steatosis may interact with each other,exacerbating liver damage and ultimately leading to further deterioration of hepatic fibrosis and cirrhosis.MRI characterized by non-invasiveness and high repeatability,enables the simultaneous quantitative assessment of hepatic iron and fat content,providing crucial information for early diagnosis and intervention of liver diseases.In recent years,researchers have achieved significant advances in the application of MRI in the diagnosis and treatment of liver diseases.MRI can accurately reflect the extent of hepatic iron overload and steatosis in patients and predict the risk of liver diseases.This article reviews the latest advances,challenges,and perspectives in the application of MRI in assessing hepatic iron overload and steatosis in the patients undergoing hemodialysis,aiming to offer valuable references for clinical practice.

Background: Aflatoxin B1 (AFB1) stands among the most toxic naturally occurring substances, with its acute toxicity characterized by the induction of acute hepatic necrosis, hemorrhage, and even fatal outcomes, thereby posing a profound threat to human health. Contamination of AFB1 in food commodities can arise at multiple stages throughout the production cycle, including cultivation, storage, and processing. This contamination cascade permeates the entire food supply chain, encompassing primary agricultural products as well as a diverse range of processed food items.

Ferroptosis is an iron-dependent form of regulated cell death characterized by lethal lipid peroxidation and implicated in various human diseases. Despite intensive research, clinically applicable ferroptosis inhibitors remain unavailable. In this study, we identify formoterol, a β-adrenergic agonist widely used to treat asthma and COPD, as a potent and selective ferroptosis inhibitor through scaffold-based screening of FDA-approved drugs.

Drug-induced liver injury is a major cause of acute liver failure. Crizotinib is a first-line treatment for patients with cellular-mesenchymal epithelial transition factor (c-MET), anaplastic lymphoma kinase (ALK), and ROS proto-oncogene 1 (ROS1)-positive non-small cell lung cancer. Although some patients treated with crizotinib experience hepatic adverse effects, the underlying mechanisms remain unclear.

Metabolic dysfunction-associated steatotic liver disease (MASLD) is the most common chronic liver disease globally. Disruptions in iron metabolism and mitochondrial oxidative function may cooperatively contribute to its pathogenesis. Ferredoxin reductase (FDXR), a mitochondrial flavoprotein, plays a critical role in mitochondrial respiratory supercomplex formation and iron-sulfur cluster biosynthesis-both essential for efficient oxidative metabolism.

This report describes the case of a 43-year-old male presenting with severe anemia (hemoglobin, HGB 35 g/L). A comprehensive evaluation encompassing bone marrow morphology (24% ring sideroblasts), genetic testing (SF3B1-negative), iron metabolism studies (ferritin 1 179 μg/L), and imaging (liver MRI T2* value 1.1 ms) was performed for diagnosis, treatment planning, and assessment of outcomes.
