Serum Transferrin Receptor and Erythrocyte Zinc Protoporphyrin in Patients with Anemia

Indicators of the iron status of populations: free erythrocyte protoporphyrin and zinc protoporphyrin; serum and plasma iron, total iron binding capacity and transferrin saturation; and serum transferrin receptor

Zinc protoporphyrin in anemia of chronic disorders.

Hematofluorometric determination of zinc protoporphyrin (ZPP) is a screening method for the assessment of iron deficiency (ID). Chronic disorders are frequently accompanied by anemias of unclear origin, most probably caused by an impairment of iron metabolism. We investigated the relevance of ZPP for the detection of derangements of iron metabolism in anemias of chronic disorders (ACD). In 19 p...

Light-induced release of protoporphyrin, but not of zinc protoporphyrin, from erythrocytes in a patient with greatly elevated erythrocyte protoporphyrin.

A patient with greatly increased erythrocyte protoporphyrin, but normal porphyrins in urine and feces, is described. The patient later developed a malignant lymphoma, and the reason why she accumulated protoporphyrin in her erythrocytes is not known. The protoporphyrin in the erythrocytes consisted of two types of protoporphyrin, free protoporphyrin (30%) and zinc protoporphyrin (70%). Upon irr...
