The role of iron in normal and impaired testicular function
Abstract Iron plays a critical role in testicular physiology, impacting spermatogenesis, testosterone production, and overall testicular function. Iron homeostasis is maintained through systemic and cellular regulatory mechanisms, including hepcidin‐mediated systemic iron control and the iron‐responsive element/iron regulatory protein (IRE/IRP) system ...

Variable expressivity of HJV related hemochromatosis: “Juvenile” hemochromatosis?
International audienceJuvenile hemochromatosis is a rare autosomal recessive disease due to variants in the Hemojuvelin (HJV) gene. Although biological features mimic HFE hemochromatosis, clinical presentation is worst with massive iron overload ...

Mechanisms of Thrombocytosis in Iron‐Deficiency Anemia
ABSTRACT Iron‐deficiency anemia is frequently accompanied by reactive thrombocytosis, yet the mechanisms underlying this association remain incompletely understood. Beyond impaired erythropoiesis, iron availability has emerged as an active regulator of hematopoietic lineage decisions.
