Role of the irr protein in the regulation of iron metabolism in Rhodobacter sphaeroides [PDF]
In Rhizobia the Irr protein is an important regulator for iron-dependent gene expression. We studied the role of the Irr homolog RSP_3179 in the photosynthetic alpha-proteobacterium Rhodobacter sphaeroides.

Rhabdomyolysis after Intravenous Ferric Gluconate: A Case Report
Patients with severe iron deficiency, malabsorption or intolerance to oral iron are frequently treated with intravenous iron replacement. We report the case of a 42-year-old woman with non-erosive oligoarticular arthritis with antiparietal cell ...

Iron metabolism and iron disorders revisited in the hepcidin era
Iron is biologically essential, but also potentially toxic; as such it is tightly controlled at cell and systemic levels to prevent both deficiency and overload.

COBALAMIN DEFICIENCY IN THE ELDERLY
Older people are at risk for cobalamin (vitamin B12) deficiency because of a number of common disorders (e.g. autoimmune gastritis) and drugs (e.g. antacids) that may alter its absorption and utilization.

Iron economy in Chlamydomonas reinhardtii. [PDF]
While research on iron nutrition in plants has largely focused on iron-uptake pathways, photosynthetic microbes such as the unicellular green alga Chlamydomonas reinhardtii provide excellent experimental systems for understanding iron metabolism at the ...

Circulating iron levels influence the regulation of hepcidin following stimulated erythropoiesis
The stimulation of erythrocyte formation increases the demand for iron by the bone marrow and this in turn may affect the levels of circulating diferric transferrin.
