Transient elevation of serum ferritin in a Sri Lankan with homozygosity for H63D mutation in the HFE gene: a case report

Journal of Medical Case Reports, 2020
Introduction Hereditary hemochromatosis is an inherited disorder of iron metabolism, characterized by excessive iron deposition in major organs of the body, leading to multi-organ dysfunction. It is a genetically heterogeneous disease caused by mutations

Neogenin-mediated hemojuvelin shedding occurs after hemojuvelin traffics to the plamsa membrane [PDF]

, 2008
Hemochromatosis type 2 gene (HFE2) is highly expressed in skeletal muscle and liver hepatocytes. Its encoded protein, hemojuvelin (HJV), is a co-receptor for the bone morphogenetic proteins 2 and 4 (BMP2 and BMP4) and enhances the BMP-induced hepcidin ...
