Iron metabolism after renal transplantation.

چکیده
1. The oral absorption and the rate of loss from the body of radioactive iron were measured by whole-body monitoring in patients with functioning renal homografts. The incorporation of radioactive iron into erythrocytes was also measured. 2. The results were compared with corresponding values in normal subjects and in non-dialysed and dialysed patients with chronic renal failure. 3. The mean oral absorption and incorporation into erythrocytes of radioactive iron was intermediate between that of normal subjects and of both non-dialysed and dialysed patients with chronic renal failure. 4. The mean rate of loss from the body was not significantly different from that in normal subjects and non-dialysed patients with chronic renal failure but it was significantly less than that in dialysed patients.

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 کاملAlteration of mRNA expression of molecules related to iron metabolism in adenine-induced renal failure rats: a possible mechanism of iron deficiency in chronic kidney disease patients on treatment.
BACKGROUND Recombinant human erythropoietin (rHuEpo) is a definitive treatment for anaemia in chronic kidney disease (CKD). During long-term rHuEpo treatment most patients develop and show persistent iron deficiency in spite of oral iron supplementation. Abnormalities of iron absorption and transport in the duodenum may contribute to this deficiency. METHODS To investigate changes in iron abs...
متن کاملChange in iron metabolism in rats after renal ischemia/reperfusion injury
Previous studies have indicated that hepcidin, which can regulate iron efflux by binding to ferroportin-1 (FPN1) and inducing its internalization and degradation, acts as the critical factor in the regulation of iron metabolism. However, it is unknown whether hepcidin is involved in acute renal ischemia/reperfusion injury (IRI). In this study, an IRI rat model was established via right renal ex...
متن کاملAluminium toxicity: its relationship with bone and iron metabolism.
Chronic renal failure leads to secondary hyperparathyroidism; the spontaneous evolution of this entity results in high bone remodelling. However, throughout the last decades we have learnt that several medical interventions, particularly those which involve a high degree of aluminium exposure, may change the evolution of secondary hyperparathyroidism, leading to other diseases such as aluminium...
