A high level of apoptosis may be responsible for the ineffective haematopoiesis in myelodysplastic syndromes (MDS). Recently, it has been demonstrated that the erythroid apoptosis of low-risk MDS is initiated at a very early stage in stem cells and is associated with mitochondrial dysfunction. However, the underlying pathogenetic mechanisms causing malfunctioning of mitochondria and initiation of the intrinsic apoptotic cascade are not completely clear. Recent studies suggest a close relationship between impaired iron metabolism and pathogenesis of myelodysplasia. In fact, iron overload, which is apparent in refractory anaemia with and without ring sideroblasts, may lead to the generation of intracellular free radicals, thereby causing oxidative damage and inducing apoptosis in haematopoietic progenitors. This review summarises current knowledge supporting the role of iron-related oxidative damage in the pathogenesis of MDS. The relationship between mitochondrial iron homeostasis impairment and ineffective erythropoiesis in refractory anaemia with ring sideroblasts as well as the various functions of the cytosolic and mitochondrial ferritins are also discussed.
