Haptoglobin polymorphism and iron homeostasis.

Clinical chemistry - 1 Dec 2002

Beutler Ernest, Gelbart Terri, Lee Pauline

Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND: There is a marked difference in the degree of expression of the homozygous C282Y HFE genotype that is associated with hereditary hemochromatosis. It has been reported that individuals with the haptoglobin 2-2 type manifest increased iron concentrations, including serum iron, transferrin saturation, and ferritin. METHODS: We studied 232 patients, 115 homozygous for the c.845G-->A (C282Y) mutation and...
