Pathophysiological consequences and benefits of HFE mutations: 20 years of research

open access: yesHaematologica, 2017
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

Intersecting Molecular Pathways in Cardiovascular Disease and Diabetes Mellitus: Emerging Roles of Inflammation and Therapeutics

open access: yesDiabetes/Metabolism Research and Reviews, Volume 42, Issue 4, May 2026.
Central illustration: Pathophysiological mechanisms linking diabetes mellitus and cardiovascular disease. Chronic hyperglycaemia, insulin resistance, and low‐grade inflammation contribute to endothelial dysfunction, myocardial fibrosis, and cardiomyocyte apoptosis.

Carrier screening in the reproductive setting—Are there medical implications for the heterozygote?—A guide for clinicians

open access: yesPregnancy, Volume 2, Issue 3, May 2026.
Abstract Carrier screening for genetic conditions performed preconception or during pregnancy allows identification of fetal risk for inherited autosomal recessive and X‐linked conditions. The goal is to identify at‐risk patients/couples and offer them reproductive options such as preimplantation genetic diagnosis, prenatal testing, or targeted newborn

Hemochromatosis: Hereditary hemochromatosis and HFE gene

open access: yes, 2019
Hereditary Hemochromatosis (HH) is an autosomal recessive genetic disease, characterized by an excessively increased absorption of dietary iron. Excess iron can be accumulated because of the lack of an effective excretory mechanism leading to toxic effects. HH is one of the most common genetic disorders in individuals of European descent.

Associations between use of aspirin and magnetic resonance imaging‐derived liver fat and fibroinflammation

open access: yesDiabetes, Obesity and Metabolism, Volume 28, Issue 5, Page 3895-3902, May 2026.
Abstract Background The effects of aspirin on hepatic steatosis and fibroinflammation are unclear. The study aimed to examine the association between aspirin use and liver magnetic resonance imaging (MRI)‐derived liver fat and corrected T1 (cT1). Methods We used UK Biobank imaging cohort data.

Adaptations to iron deficiency: cardiac functional responsiveness to norepinephrine, arterial remodeling, and the effect of beta-blockade on cardiac hypertrophy. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2002
BackgroundIron deficiency (ID) results in ventricular hypertrophy, believed to involve sympathetic stimulation. We hypothesized that with ID 1) intravenous norepinephrine would alter heart rate (HR) and contractility, 2) abdominal aorta would be larger ...

Global consensus on the management of melanin hyperpigmentation disorders

open access: yesJournal of the European Academy of Dermatology and Venereology, Volume 40, Issue 5, Page 760-772, May 2026.
A global Delphi consensus of 10 dermatology experts established evidence‐based recommendations for melanin hyperpigmentation disorders, providing unified classification, photoprotection guidance and treatment algorithms. This framework harmonizes terminology and supports individualized management across diverse skin types and health systems.

HFE-Associated Hereditary Haemochromatosis

open access: yesCanadian Journal of Gastroenterology, 2000
Hereditary hemochromatosis is a common inherited disorder of the iron metabolism. Screening studies indicate that it has a prevalence of one in 200 to 400, depending on the population studied, and a carrier rate of about one in seven to one in 10.

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

open access: yes, 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.

Hemochromatosis Treatment by Venipuncture Through History: Applying Venipuncture in the Treatment of Hemochromatosis

open access: yesSoutheastern European Medical Journal, 2018
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
