Hereditary hemochromatosis (HHC) is a disorder of iron metabolism with variable penetrance. Oxidative stress plays a central role in the progression to cirrhosis. Several enzymes involved in the production or degradation of reactive oxidants, like myeloperoxidase (MPO) and heme oxygenase (HO)-1 are influenced by promotor polymorphisms. This study assessed the impact of polymorphisms of the MPO (-463G/A) and the HO-1 promotors of Vienna (GT)n on the evolution of cirrhosis in patients with HHC.
