High impact information on Iron Overload

  • Individuals with hereditary hemochromatosis suffer from systemic iron overload due to duodenal hyperabsorption [8].
  • Although expression of mouse Hamp is normally greater during iron overload, Hfe-/- mice have inappropriately low expression of Hamp [9].
  • Constitutive hepcidin expression prevents iron overload in a mouse model of hemochromatosis [9].
  • Deferiprone in iron overload [10].
  • To examine the hypothesis that African iron overload also involves a genetic factor, we used likelihood analysis to test for an interaction between a gene (the hypothesized iron-loading locus) and an environmental factor (increased dietary iron) that determines transferrin saturation and unsaturated iron-binding capacity [11].
