Ferric Citrate Supplementation Reduces Red Blood Cell Aggregation and Improves CD163+ Macrophage ‐Mediated Hemoglobin Metabolism in a Rat Model of High‐Fat‐Diet‐Induced Obesity

Conclusions: Ferric citrate supplementation reduces RBC aggregation and improves CD163+ macrophage‐mediated Hb metabolism in HFD‐induced obese rats. These findings suggest that ferric citrate may be explored as an alternative treatment method for RBC dysfunction.This article is protected by copyright. All rights reserved
