En 2021, Sanjay Kumar Rai écrit :
« Les cellules cancéreuses concentrent le fer pour l’utiliser dans la division cellulaire, comme le parasite du paludisme, qui collecte également des concentrations de fer plus élevées que les cellules normales.
Le peroxyde d’artémisinine « casse » ce fer, qui est immédiatement transformé en deux radicaux libres très agressifs qui peuvent tuer rapidement la cellule affectée. » (1)
(1) Cancer cells concentrate iron for use in cellular division similar to the malaria parasite, which also collects higher concentrations of iron than the normal cells, and the peroxide of artemisinin “breaks” this iron, which is immediately transformed into two very aggressive free radicals that can kill the affected cell rapidly.

Generate a highly detailed and sharp-focused image featuring an artistic representation of cancer cells with an emphasis on iron accumulation. The image should depict cancer cells as vibrant, dynamic entities surrounded by iron particles, illustrating their aggressive division process. Include visual elements that symbolize free radicals, such as glowing energy bursts in a dark, moody environment. The lighting should be dramatic, highlighting the contrast between the cancer cells and the background. Request a high-resolution output to capture intricate details and textures, showcasing the scientific theme of disease and treatment innovation effectively.
