  • Resumen

  • Story at-a-glance
    • Ischemic strokes block blood flow to brain cells, causing damage through three distinct cell death mechanisms, with iron overload playing a key role
    • Excess iron accumulation during strokes accelerates cell death, functioning like "gasoline on a fire" and worsening brain damage significantly
    • New research shows targeting iron-related cell death could lead to better stroke treatments that protect more brain cells from damage
    • A simple blood test called serum ferritin measures your iron stores. Keeping levels below 100 ng/mL, ideally between 20 and 40 ng/mL, helps protect your brain
    • Regular blood donation (two to four times yearly) is an effective strategy to manage iron levels and reduce stroke risk and severity
