Abstract excerpt
Extensive investigation into the molecular basis of iron overload disorders has provided new insights into the complexity of iron metabolism and related cellular pathways. The possible involvement of genes affecting iron homeostasis, including HFE, SLC40A1, HAMP and CYBRD1, was investigated in individuals who were referred for confirmation or exclusion of a diagnosis of haemochromatosis, but who tested negative...
