Pathophysiological consequences and benefits of HFE mutations: 20 years of research
Mutations in the HFE (hemochromatosis) gene cause hereditary hemochromatosis, an iron overload disorder that is hallmarked by excessive accumulation of iron in parenchymal organs. The HFE mutation p.Cys282Tyr is pathologically most relevant and occurs in

ABSTRACT Background Transfusion‐related iron overload (TRIO) is a late effect of therapy impacting survivors of childhood cancer and hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT) who receive frequent packed red blood cell (pRBC) transfusions. Surprisingly, there are no accepted guidelines to assist providers in identifying and treating at‐risk ...

Juvenile hemochromatosis associated with pathogenic mutations of adult hemochromatosis genes
Background & Aims: Juvenile hemochromatosis is a severe form of hereditary iron overload that has thus far been linked to pathogenic mutations of the gene coding for hemojuvelin (HJV), on chromosome 1, or, more rarely, that coding for hepcidin (HAMP), on

ABSTRACT Climate change is responsible for salinity intrusion in coastal areas, which is significantly threatening the sustainability of aquaculture. This investigation focused on evaluating growth performance, proximate composition, blood morphology and histopathological modifications in Nile tilapia (Oreochromis niloticus) exposed to varying salinity

Severe Lactic Acidosis in Decompensated Cirrhosis Despite Nondiagnostic Imaging
ABSTRACT Lactic acidosis is a strong predictor of mortality in cirrhosis, reflecting both impaired hepatic clearance and systemic tissue hypoxia. We describe a 38‐year‐old man with decompensated alcohol‐associated cirrhosis who developed severe lactic acidosis despite stable hemodynamics and initially nondiagnostic vascular imaging.

Hemochromatosis and alcoholic liver disease
The close association of excessive alcohol consumption and clinical expression of hemochromatosis has been of widespread interest for many years. In most populations of northern European extraction, more than 90% of patients with overt hemochromatosis ...

ABSTRACT Hereditary hemochromatosis (HH) is an inherited disorder of iron metabolism characterized by progressive iron accumulation in multiple organs. While most cases are associated with HFE mutations, non‐HFE variants such as mutations in the transferrin receptor‐2 (TFR2) gene represent rare causes of iron overload.

Hemochromatosis is a hereditary disease caused by the mutation of genes responsible for regulating iron metabolism in the body. The mutation results in elevated iron absorption from the food that is deposited and stored in various organs and tissues. Due
