Investigation of nicotianamine and 2′ deoxymugineic acid as enhancers of iron bioavailability in caco-2 cells

Nicotianamine (NA) is a low-molecular weight metal chelator in plants with high affinity for ferrous iron (Fe2+) and other divalent metal cations. In graminaceous plant species, NA serves as the biosynthetic precursor to 2′ deoxymugineic acid (DMA), a root-secreted mugineic acid family phytosideroph...
