Cover Story: Iron is indispensable for life yet toxic in excess. Iron utilization is essential to normal physiologic processes across cell types. This paper explores the molecular mechanisms that maintain systemic iron balance and how their disruption leads to multi-organ disease. We outline iron's "lifecycle", key regulatory pathways, and the consequences of their failure, along with iron’s impact on systems including bone marrow, CNS, liver, kidneys, gonads, and endocrine tissues. In each of these, the dangers of overload are described, linking molecular missteps to diverse and potentially chronic syndromes. Finally, emerging therapies such as gene editing and mimetics aimed at restoring iron equilibrium are also discussed. View this paper
