pubmed:abstractText |
Hypertransfusional (>8 transfusions/year) iron in liver biopsies collected immediately after transfusions in beta-thalassemia and sickle cell disease correlated with increased expression (RNA) for iron regulatory proteins 1 and 2 (3-, 9- to 11-fold) and hepcidin RNA: (5- to 8-fold) (each p <.01), while ferritin H and L RNA remained constant. A different H:L ferritin ratio in RNA (0.03) and protein (0.2-0.6) indicated disease-specific trends and suggests novel post-transcriptional effects. Increased iron regulatory proteins could stabilize the transferrin receptor mRNA and, thereby, iron uptake. Increased hepcidin, after correction of anemia by transfusion, likely reflects excess liver iron. Finally, the absence of a detectable change in ferritin mRNA indicates insufficient oxidative stress to significantly activate MARE/ARE promoters.
