Background Iron toxicity is key factor for tissue damage in ironoverloaded patients, with induced heart failure as the main cause of death. T2*-weighted MRI has been established as the method of choice for evaluating iron-content with strong correlation with biopsy, where T2* < 20 ms and T2* < 10 ms at 1.5T indicate iron overload and severe iron overload, respectively. Recently-introduced duale...
Labile plasma iron (LPI) represents a component of non-transferrin-bound iron (NTBI) that is both redox-active and chelatable, capable of permeating into organs and inducing tissue iron overload. It appears in various types of hemosiderosis (transfusional and non-transfusional) and in other iron-overload conditions. Sustained levels of LPI could over time compromise organ (e.g. heart) function ...
Iron overload is the most important cause of mortality in patients with thalassaemia major. Iron chelation is therefore a critical issue in the management of these patients and others with transfusion-dependent haemoglobinopathies and congenital anaemias. In recent years, significant developments have been made in the assessment of iron overload, including the use of magnetic resonance imaging ...
Iron overload is highly prevalent, but its molecular pathogenesis is poorly understood. Recently, DMT1 was shown to be a major apical iron transporter in absorptive cells of the duodenum. In vivo, it is the only transporter known to be important for the uptake of dietary non-heme iron from the gut lumen. The expression and subcellular localization of DMT1 protein in 3 mouse models of iron overl...
Dietary copper in the U.S. often is lower than that proved insufficient for men and women under controlled conditions. Iron overload can have adverse effects on copper nutriture and can produce cardiac disease in people. The hypothesis that iron can interfere with copper utilization to produce adverse effects related to cardiovascular function was tested. Rats were fed a diet high in iron and m...
Our current understanding of iron absorption under normal conditions is presented, together with an overview of the clinical disorders of iron overload and the molecular processes that contribute to increased iron deposition in iron overload. Recently, a number of new genes involved in iron metabolism have been identified which is allowing the molecular mechanisms of iron absorption to be eluci...
Background Frequent blood transfusion is often associated with iron overload. Proper use of iron chelators to treat iron overload requires an accurate measurement of iron levels. Magnetic resonance T2-star (T2* MRI) can measure iron level in the heart and liver. Our goal was to see whether an association exists between serum ferritin level and T2* MRI in patients with major beta thalassemia. ...
