Determination of ferritin and hemosiderin iron in patients with normal iron stores and iron overload by serum ferritin kinetics.
We attempted to clarify the storage iron metabolism from the change in the serum ferritin level. We assumed that the nonlinear decrease in serum ferritin was caused by serum ferritin increase in iron mobilization. Under this assumption, we determined both ferritin and hemosiderin iron levels by computer-assisted simulation of the row of decreasing assay-dots of serum ferritin in 11 patients wit...
متن کاملTransformation rate between ferritin and hemosiderin assayed by serum ferritin kinetics in patients with normal iron stores and iron overload
Ferritin iron, hemosiderin iron, total iron stores and transformation rate were determined by serum ferritin kinetics. The transformation rate between ferritin and hemosiderin is motivated by the potential difference between them. The transformer determines transformation rate according to the potential difference in iron mobilization and deposition. The correlations between transformation rate...
متن کاملMimicking liver iron overload using liposomal ferritin preparations.
Close monitoring of liver iron content is necessary to prevent iron overload in transfusion-dependent anemias. Liver biopsy remains the gold standard; however, MRI potentially offers a noninvasive alternative. Iron metabolism and storage is complicated and tissue/disease-specific. This report demonstrates that iron distribution may be more important than iron speciation with respect to MRI sign...
متن کاملFerritin in the serum of normal subjects and patients with iron deficiency and iron overload.
The concentration of ferritin in serum gives a quantitative measure of the amount of storage iron in normal subjects and those with iron deficiency or overload. The mean level in normal men is 69 ng/ml, compared with 35 ng/ml in normal women. A concentration below 10 ng/ml is associated with a low transferrin saturation and iron-deficient erythropoiesis.
متن کاملFerritin in serum: diagnosis of iron deficiency and iron overload in infants and children.
Ferritin in serum was quantitated by radioimmunoassay to determine the usefulness of this assay in reflecting iron stores during normal development and in the diagnosis of iron deficiency and iron overload in infants and children. In the adult, serum ferritin has been reported to correspond to the magnitude of iron stores throughout a wide range. In 573 normal infants and children, we found the...
