Hereditary hemochromatosis (HH) is an autosomal recessive disorder classically related to HFE mutations. However, since 1996, it is known that HFE mutations explain about 80% of HH cases, with the remaining around 20% denominated non-HFE hemochromatosis.

Abstract Background Neurodegeneration with Brain Iron Accumulation (NBIA) is a heterogeneous group of heritable, mostly recessive, progressive neurodegenerative diseases characterized by iron deposition in the basal ganglia and brainstem. There are no solid global epidemiological data on prevalence and incidence of NBIA subtypes, but registry data and ...

Protein Susceptibility to Peroxidation by 4-Hydroxynonenal in Hereditary Hemochromatosis
Iron overload caused by hereditary hemochromatosis (HH) increases free reactive oxygen species that, in turn, induce lipid peroxidation. Its 4-hydroxynonenal (HNE) by-product is a well-established marker of lipid peroxidation since it reacts with ...

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 ...

Correction of the iron overload defect in beta-2-microglobulin knockout mice by lactoferrin abolishes their increased susceptibility to tuberculosis. [PDF]
As a resident of early endosomal phagosomes, Mycobacterium tuberculosis is connected to the iron uptake system of the host macrophage. beta-2-microglobulin (beta2m) knockout (KO) mice are more susceptible to tuberculosis than wild-type mice, which is ...

Rare Variants in PFIC‐Related Genes Among Adults With Intrahepatic Cholestasis
ABSTRACT Aim Biallelic pathogenic variants in progressive familial intrahepatic cholestasis (PFIC)‐related genes cause severe pediatric cholestasis. However, the clinical significance of heterozygous variants in adult intrahepatic cholestasis remains unclear.

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.

Spontaneous Hepatobiliary Disease in a Breeding Colony of Aotus spp.
ABSTRACT Background Owl monkeys are nonhuman primate species in the genus Aotus. The Michale E. Keeling Center for Comparative Medicine and Research maintains an Owl Monkey Breeding and Research Resource composed of four species of owl monkeys: Aotus nancymai, A. vociferans, A. azarae, and A. griseimembra.
