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

Abstract Background and Aims Metabolic dysfunction–associated steatotic liver disease (MASLD) is the most common chronic liver disease globally, but its prevalence and severity remain poorly characterized in the general population. Our aim was to estimate the prevalence of MASLD and the risk of advanced fibrosis in a large Swedish general population ...

Genetic variants underlying precancerous conditions of hepatocellular carcinoma
Abstract Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is the most common form of liver cancer, accounting for 80% of cases worldwide. While chronic hepatitis B and C infections remain primary risk factors, emerging evidence highlights the increasing contributions of metabolic dysfunction‐associated steatotic liver disease (MASLD) and alcohol‐associated liver disease

Juvenile Hereditary Hemochromatosis: A Case Report [PDF]
Introduction: Hereditary hemochromatosis is an inherited condition where an excess of iron is absorbed from the diet, causing its accumulation in vital organs and subsequent organ damage.

Ferroportin-related haemochromatosis associated with novel Y64H mutation of the SCL40A1 gene [PDF]
In this paper we described the first Polish patient with ferroportin disease. Hereditary haemochromatosis (HH) is a condition associated with universal iron overload, and it is divided into four types, according to the Online Mendelian Inheritance in Man

Type 4B hereditary hemochromatosis associated with a novel mutation in the SLC40A1 gene
Rationale: Hereditary hemochromatosis can be divided into HFE- and non-HFE-related based on genetic mutations in different genes. HFE-related hemochromatosis is the most common inherited genetic disease in European populations but rare in Asia-pacific ...

ABSTRACT Background Doxorubicin (DOX) is a highly effective chemotherapeutic agent whose use can cause respiratory toxicity, increasing patient fatigue and negatively impacting quality of life and survival. These adverse effects occur due to diaphragm muscle mitochondrial accumulation of DOX, where it causes reactive oxygen species production and iron ...

Hereditary Hemochromatosis: Genetics, Pathogenesis, and Clinical Management
Recent findings have led to major advances in our understanding of genetics and pathophysiology of hereditary hemochromatosis. Many crucial genes and molecules have come to light, and the complex interrelationships between them are being studied. However,
