The Effects of Dandelion Polysaccharides on Iron Metabolism by Regulating Hepcidin via JAK/STAT Signaling Pathway

Figure 1

DP regulates iron content in hepatoma cells and grafted tumors. (a, b) Fluorescence staining of metal-sensitive probe calcein showed labile iron in HepG2 and Huh7 cells. DP decreased the labile iron content in both cells. (c) Perls’ Prussian blue staining was performed to observe iron deposits in tumor tissues.
