Effects of green tea extract treatment on erythropoiesis and iron parameters in iron-overloaded β-thalassemic mice

β-Thalassemia is characterized by ineffective erythropoiesis leading to chronic anemia. Thus, increased iron absorption from the duodenum and via blood transfusions is required to maintain normal blood hemoglobin (Hb) levels and iron chelators in the removal of excessive iron.
