Iron-carrying compound

English to Italian Medical Medical (general)
Hello,
I am going through a clinical study, 'Targeted treatment of cancer with artemisinin and artemisinin-tagged iron-carrying compounds'.
I would like to know how to best translate 'iron-carrying compound''.
Many thanks

composto deputato al trasporto del ferro

Transferrin is an iron-carrying compound that stimulates cell growth and division by binding to specific receptors (TR) which are preferentially expressed by actively growing cells or by the malignant counterpart of normal cells.

La transferrina è la principale proteina di trasporto del ferro nel sangue. Si tratta di una glicoproteina costituita da una singola catena polipeptidica di 78 KDa che possiede due siti di legame per lo ione ferrico (Fe3+), mentre non presenta affinità per lo ione ferroso (Fe2+).
