Iron overload.
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...
متن کاملIron Deficiency and Iron Overload.
Iron is essential to most, if not all, living organisms, and the higher animals and man have employed it for many purposes essential to life. The readiness with which iron undergoes oxidation and reduction is utilized in many of the enzymes of electron transport, and in a number of other enzymes whose function is not understood. Furthermore, the combination of iron with porphyrin and protein le...
متن کاملHydrophilic Phytochelators in Iron Overload Condition
Background: Iron overload can cause many complications and damage many organs as well as physiologic functions. Consumption of phetochemicals and flavonoids with iron chelating ability, instead of synthetic iron chelators, can be less harmful and more effective. The aim of this review is to investigate hydrophilic phytochelators in iron overload condition. Methods: In this review, the possible ...
متن کاملGenetic disorders of iron overload and the novel "ferroportin disease".
A positive iron balance inevitably leads to iron overload. 1 Excluding red blood cell transfusion, iron loading usually reflects an altered mucosal regulation of iron absorption, observed both in genetic conditions not associated with anemia and in iron-loading anemias. 2,3 The best characterized form of genetic iron overload is a common recessive HLA-linked disorder, initially called idiopathi...
متن کاملEvidence of genetic transmission in African iron overload.
Iron overload in Africa was previously regarded as purely due to excessive iron in traditional beer, but we recently found evidence that transferrin saturation and unsaturated iron binding capacity may be influenced by an interaction between dietary iron content and a gene distinct from any HLA-linked locus. To determine if serum ferritin follows a genetic pattern and to confirm our previous ob...
