Mutações no gene HFE (C282Y, H63D, S65C) em uma população brasileira [PDF]
Hereditary hemochromatosis (HH) is the most common genetic disorder occurring in individuals of northern European descent. The clinical characteristic of this disease is the gradual accumulation of iron in internal organs, which ultimately leads to organ

Iron overload in hereditary spherocytosis: Are genetic factors the cause?
Summary Non‐transfusional iron overload (IOL) in hereditary spherocytosis (HS) is poorly documented compared with other red blood cell disorders. We studied 13 HS adults with confirmed IOL to identify potential genetic factors. Using a next‐generation sequencing panel of 46 genes related to HS, anaemia and iron metabolism, we found no association ...

Novel loci affecting iron homeostasis and their effects in individuals at risk for hemochromatosis. [PDF]
Variation in body iron is associated with or causes diseases, including anaemia and iron overload. Here, we analyse genetic association data on biochemical markers of iron status from 11 European-population studies, with replication in eight additional ...

Genetic iron-overload disorders, mainly hereditary hemochromatosis and untransfused β-thalassemia, affect a large population worldwide. The primary etiology of iron overload in these diseases is insufficient production of hepcidin by the liver, leading ...

In iron‐refractory iron deficiency anaemia, inappropriately elevated hepcidin levels impair enteral iron absorption and iron release from macrophages by interacting with ferroportin. Oral iron supplements (containing ~30 mg Fe2+ per 100 mg) are generally ineffective due to this hepcidin–ferroportin interaction although, in some cases, this can be ...

Abstract Insulin has been discovered for more than a century; however, its benefits to people with diabetes are yet to be fully realized due to barriers related to access, quality of care and costs. Insulin therapy remains the cornerstone of diabetes management. The multicausality of diabetes and its subtypes calls for comprehensive phenotyping and use

Anemia with jaundice: An unusual cause
Anemia and jaundice are two important clinical signs in medicine. Occurrence of these two signs together in a patient suggests hemolytic disorders. Hemochromatosis is a disease characterized by hyperpigmentation, arthralgia and diabetes.

1-quasi-hereditary algebras [PDF]
Motivated by the structure of the algebras associated to the blocks of the BGG-category O we define a subclass of quasi-hereditary algebras called 1-quasi-hereditary. Many properties of these algebras only depend on the defining partial order. In particular, we can determine the quiver and the form of the relations.

Pathological significance of intranuclear structures in liver biopsy samples
Schematic representation of the potential significance of three distinct nuclear structures. Glycogenated nuclei reflects excessive glycogen accumulation in the hepatocytes. Nucleoplasmic lipid droplets form in the nucleus during hepatocyte injury. Cytoplasmic lipid droplets in the nucleoplasmic reticulum are suppressed when there is excessive fat ...

Bull's eye maculopathy associated with hereditary hemochromatosis
Purpose: To report a case of bull's eye maculopathy, a novel finding in a patient with iron overload secondary to hereditary hemochromatosis with a homozygous mutation of the HFE gene.
