Frequency and influence of hemochromatosis gene mutations in kidney transplant recipients with or without hepatitis C virus infection.

Transplantation proceedings - 1 Jan 2000

Ramírez E, Pacho A, Morales J M, De Castro I, Paz-Artal E, Morales P

Abstract excerpt

Mutations in hemochromatosis gene cause an inappropriately high absorption of iron that induces iron overload and deposition in several tissues, such as liver, pancreas, and heart. Iron overload in the liver has been associated with a high risk of hepatocarcinoma and susceptibility to viral and bacterial infections. The aim of this study was to describe the frequencies of HFE mutations among a kidney transplant...
