Human mutation D157G in ferroportin leads to hepcidin-independent binding of Jak2 and ferroportin down-regulation

Blood, 2010
Abstract Mutations in the iron exporter ferroportin (Fpn) result in iron overload in macrophages or hepatocytes depending upon the mutation. Patients with Fpn mutation D157G show high serum ferritin and normal to slightly elevated transferrin saturation.

Identification of Common Blood Metabolic Derangements Using Magnetic Resonance Signatures of the Pancreas and Liver

Diabetes, Obesity and Metabolism, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Aim To investigate whether common disturbances of glucose and lipid metabolism can be automatically identified from magnetic resonance signatures of the pancreas and liver. Methods In this proof‐of‐principle study, 100 individuals with a history of pancreatitis—a relatively homogeneous population at risk for metabolic derangements—underwent ...

Iron Metabolism of the Skin: Recycling versus Release

Metabolites, 2023
The skin protects the body against exogenous stressors. Its function is partially achieved by the permanent regeneration of the epidermis, which requires high metabolic activity and the shedding of superficial cells, leading to the loss of metabolites ...

Silencing airway epithelial cell-derived hepcidin exacerbates sepsis-induced acute lung injury [PDF]

, 2014
INTRODUCTION: The production of antimicrobial peptides by airway epithelial cells is an important component of the innate immune response to pulmonary infection and inflammation. Hepcidin is a β-defensin-like antimicrobial peptide and acts as a principal

Transcript correlation analysis for the identification of novel plant genes involved in iron metabolism and beyond: what next?

Plant Biology, EarlyView.
Transcript correlation analysis allowed the identification of several key nodes in the complex regulatory network of plant iron metabolism. Abstract Arabidopsis thaliana was the first plant genome to be fully sequenced, almost a quarter of a century ago, thanks to The Arabidopsis Genome Initiative, with contributions from scientists worldwide.

Rare autosomal dominant hereditary hemochromatosis associated with SLC40A1 gene: ferroportin disease or type 4 hereditary hemochromatosis? [PDF]

, 2019
Ferroportin (FPN1), encoded by the SLC40A1 gene, is the unique cellular iron exporter identified in mammals. FPN1 transfers iron from the intestine and macrophages into the bloodstream. This function is negatively regulated by hepcidin.

Parenteral iron—Does it increase infection risk?

Vox Sanguinis, EarlyView.
Abstract Background and Objectives Iron deficiency (ID) and iron deficiency anaemia (IDA) are prevalent conditions impacting various patient populations, both surgical and non‐surgical conditions. The advent of patient blood management (PBM) has promoted intravenous (IV) iron therapy as an alternative to oral iron and blood transfusions.

Studies of Slc30a10 Deficiency in Mice Reveal That Intestinal Iron Transporters Dmt1 and Ferroportin Transport ManganeseSummary

Cellular and Molecular Gastroenterology and Hepatology
Background & Aims: SLC11A2 (DMT1) and SLC40A1 (ferroportin) are essential for dietary iron absorption, but their role in manganese transport is debated.

Distinct iron homeostasis in C57BL/6 and Balb/c mouse strains

Physiological Reports, 2020
C57BL/6 (BL6) and Balb/c mice exhibit prototypical Th1‐ and Th2‐dominant immune predispositions, respectively. Iron is a proinflammatory metal ion; however, limited information is documented on the differences in iron homeostasis between BL6 and Balb/c ...

Iron deficiency in parkinsonism : region-specific iron dysregulation in Parkinson's disease and multiple system atrophy [PDF]

Alpha synuclein pathology is widespread and found in diverse cell types in multiple system atrophy (MSA) as compared to Parkinson's disease (PD). The reason for this differential distribution is unknown.
