Charting the course of Sjögren's disease: A historical analysis of scientific progress
Abstract Sjögren's disease (SjD) bears the name of the Swedish ophthalmologist Henrik Sjögren. His 1933 doctoral thesis on keratoconjunctivitis sicca ignited interest, yet much remains under debate. SjD is an autoimmune disorder that primarily affects the exocrine glands, particularly the salivary and lacrimal glands, leading to a dryness of the eyes ...

Revisiting Inherited Metabolic Diseases (IMDs) Through the Lens of Selective Autophagy
ABSTRACT Selective autophagy is increasingly recognized as a fundamental quality‐control mechanism that complements bulk autophagy by enabling the targeted degradation of specific intracellular cargos, including mitochondria, endoplasmic reticulum (ER), lipid droplets, glycogen, peroxisomes, ferritin, ribosomes, and protein aggregates.

Hemochromatosis: Hereditary hemochromatosis and HFE gene
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.

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 ...
