Iron-loaded cells had approximately three times higher relative ester carbonyl concentration compared with controls, indicating an accumulation of triglycerides. The methylene/methyl ratio qualitatively suggests the acyl chain length of fatty acids in iron-loaded cells increased over the 8 h period of monitoring compared with a reduction observed in the control cells. Our findings provide direct evidence that mild to moderate iron loading in hepatocytes drives de novo lipid synthesis, consistent with a role for iron in the
