Iron Metabolism & Its Disorders

ciency or ferroportin Q248H had lower circulating tumor necrosis factor-α concentrations than iron-replete children with WT ferroportin, led us to hypothesize that ferroportin Q248H has reduced sensitivity to hepcidin but that this property would be observed at lower concentrations of hepcidin than those used in previous studies. Here, we analyzed the sensitivity of ferroportin Q248H to hepcidi...

Magnesium metabolism and its disorders.

Magnesium is the fourth most abundant cation in the body and plays an important physiological role in many of its functions. Magnesium balance is maintained by renal regulation of magnesium reabsorption. The exact mechanism of the renal regulation is not fully understood. Magnesium deficiency is a common problem in hospital patients, with a prevalence of about 10%. There are no readily availabl...

Radioactive Iron and Its Metabolism in Anemia

Artificially produced radioactive iron is an extremely sensitive agent for use in following iron in the course of its changes in body metabolism, lending itself to studies of absorption, transport, exchange, mobilization, and excretion. The need of the body for iron in some manner determines the absorption of this element. In the normal dog when there is no need for the element, it is absorbed ...
