Clinical Disorders of Iron Metabolism in the Elderly

Clinics in Geriatric Medicine, 1985
When iron deficiency occurs in the elderly, it is usually due to bleeding and not to nutritional lack or malabsorption. Iron deficiency early in life may lead to irreversible changes (for example, gastric achlorhydria) that are troublesome in later life. The nonhematologic effects of iron deficiency still need to be studied in the elderly.

Review: Iron metabolism and the role of iron in neurodegenerative disorders

Neuropathology and Applied Neurobiology, 2014
Iron plays a role for the biogenesis of two important redox‐reactive prosthetic groups of enzymes, iron sulphur clusters (ISC) and heme. A part of these biosynthetic pathways takes plays in the mitochondria. While several important proteins of cellular iron uptake and storage and of mitochondrial iron metabolism are well‐characterized, limited ...

Introduction: Hereditary disorders of iron metabolism

Seminars in Hematology, 2002
IRON IS REQUIRED bymost organisms and is used for the synthesis of hemoproteins and proteins containing iron-sulfur clusters or di-iron groups. The ability of iron to readily alter its oxidation state is responsible for the biological activity of these proteins.

Iron Metabolism Disorders

2014
Hereditary hemochromatosis is characterized by iron accumulation in several tissues, i.e., in the parenchymal cells of the liver, heart, pancreas, and other endocrine organs. This toxic accumulation occurs as a result of increased intestinal uptake of dietary iron.

Disorders of Iron Metabolism

1996
Abstract The anemias due to abnormalities of iron metabolism include iron-deficiency anemia, sideroblastic anemia, and anemia of chronic disease. These anemias share deficient hemoglobin synthesis due to defective incorporation of iron into heme.

Iron Metabolism Disorder in Lymphangioleiomyomatosis

American Journal of Respiratory and Critical Care Medicine
Abstract Background: Lymphangioleiomyomatosis (LAM) is a rare multisystem neoplastic disease that predominantly affects women at the fertile age. Sirolimus, the therapy choice for lymphangioleiomyomatosis (LAM), displayed cytostatic but not cytocidal action, with disease recurrence after withdrawal.

Little, Brown & Co., 34 Beacon St, Boston 6, Mass., 1962 Iron deficiency, the world's most common cause of anemia, has been found in the United States in more than one fourth of young children and in more than one tenth of young and middle-aged women. It always represents a need

Iron Metabolism and Its Disorders

Archives of Internal Medicine, 1977
The report of this conference is organized into four sections on iron balance, iron deficiency, iron overload, and the treatment of iron deficiency and overload. Each section is composed of eight or nine separate short papers ranging from biochemical and electron microscopic observations to clinical studies of iron metabolism.
