THE RELATIONSHIP BETWEEN ALUMINIUM TOXICITY AND IRON METABOLISM IN RATS
The relationship between aluminium toxicity and iron metabolism was studied. Male rats were exposed to aluminium by daily intraperitoneal injection of 40pmolelkg body weight. After 45 days, aluminium intoxified rats had a significant loweredserum ferritin (55%), iron (42%), TIBC (25%) and hemoglobin(31%). At thesame time the serum ceruloplasmin level was elevated by 60%. This result shows t...
متن کاملIron, lactoferrin and iron regulatory protein activity in the synovium; relative importance of iron loading and the inflammatory response.
OBJECTIVES To determine the ability of lactoferrin in rheumatoid arthritis (RA) synovial fluid to bind "free" iron, and to study the regulatory mechanisms therein that control iron homeostasis. METHODS "Free" iron was determined by the bleomycin assay and lactoferrin concentrations by enzyme linked immunosorbent assay. The activities of iron regulatory protein (IRP) and NF-kappa B in synovial...
متن کاملIron metabolism, sickle cell disease, and response to cyanate.
In an attempt to understand the variability of the hematologic response to oral sodium cyanate, iron metabolism was studied in a group of 39 patients with sickel cell disease. Eleven of the 39 patients were found to have no stainable iron in the marrow despite the fact that patients with sickle cell disease are generally considered to have hemosiderosis. The mean per cent saturation and total i...
متن کاملHemochromatosis and Iron Metabolism
Hereditary hemochromatosis Hereditary hemochromatosis (HH) is characterized by abnormal iron absorption from the diet resulting in progressive iron overload, causing tissue damage of several organs, particularly the liver (1). Historically HH has been regarded as an extremely rare inborn error of metabolism causing "bronze diabetes", liver cirrhosis and hepatocellular carcinoma due to heavy iro...
