A case of depression with psychotic features associated with hemoglobin Manukau mutation
Abstract Background It is pertinent to investigate organic possibilities in acute presentation of mental illness. Iron‐deficiency anemia has long been established to cause symptoms of major depressive disorder. The association between depression and hemolytic anemia and hemochromatosis is less understood.

ABSTRACT The iron regulatory hormone hepcidin contributes to the pathogenesis of anemia of inflammation (AI) by inhibiting the iron exporter ferroportin in target cells, causing hypoferremia. Under acute inflammation, hepcidin induction requires hemojuvelin (Hjv), a bone morphogenetic protein co‐receptor, while Fpn mRNA is also suppressed in a hepcidin‐

Do All Hemochromatosis Patients Have the Same Origin? A Pilot Study of Mitochondrial DNA and Y-DNA
BACKGROUND: Mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) and Y-DNA analysis have been widely used to predict ancestral origin. Genetic anthropologists predict that human civilizations may have originated in central Africa one to two million years previously.

ABSTRACT Introduction Type 3 hereditary hemochromatosis (HH) is a rare genetic disease due to mutations in the transferrin receptor 2 (TFR2) gene. Methods and Results Here, we describe the case of an Italian patient presenting with hyperferritinemia and hepatic iron accumulation, not evidenced by magnetic resonance imaging, that was subsequently ...

Mutation Analysis in Hereditary Hemochromatosis
The DNA of 147 patients of European origin clinically diagnosed with idiopathic hemochromatosis and 193 controls was examined for mutations of the HLA-H gene at nt 845 and nt 187. One hundred twenty-one (82.3%) of the hemochromatosis patients were homozygous and 10 (6.8%) heterozygous for the 845A (C282Y) mutation.
