Iron metabolism
Iron is important for formation of Hb,myoglobin and other substances such asthe cytochromes,cytochromeoxidase,peroxidase and catalases

Iron stores About two-thirds of the total body iron is in the circulation ashaemoglobin (2.5 3 g in a normal adult man).
Iron is stored in reticuloendothelial cells, hepatocytes and
skeletal musclecells (500 1500 mg). About two-thirds of this isstored as ferritin and one-third as haemosiderin in normalindividuals.
Small amounts of iron are also found in plasma (about 4 mgbound to transferrin), with some in myoglobin andenzymes.

Requirements Each day 0.5 1.0 mg of iron is lost in the faeces, urine andsweat.
Menstruating women lose 30 40 mL of blood permonth, an average of about 0.5 0.7 mg of iron per day.
Blood loss through menstruation in excess of 100 mL willusually result in iron deficiency as increased iron absorptionfrom the gut cannot compensate for such losses of iron.
The demand for iron also increases during growth (about0.6 mg per day) and pregnancy (1 2 mg per day).
In the normal adult the iron content of the body remainsrelatively fixed

Dietary intake
The average daily dietcontains 15 20 mg of iron,although normally only10% of this is absorbed.Absorption may beincreased to 20 30% iniron deficiency andpregnancy.

Liver,eggLeafy vegitables
Whole wheatJaggeryRazma
cereals
Heam iron(animalorigin)
Non Heam Iron

Non-haem iron is mainly derived fromcereals, vegitables and grains . it forms
the main part of dietary iron.Haem iron is derived from haemoglobinand myoglobin in organ meats.
Haem iron is better absorbed thannon-haem iron,

Absorption of Iron:
Mainly from Duodenum.Heme-Fe +2 from Meat (Myoglobin,hemoglobin)
Non heme iron (Fe +3 reduced by VitC & ferrireductase (FR) to Fe +2 forabsorption)

Factors affecting Iron Absorption
Haem iron is absorbed better than non-haem iron
Ferrous iron is absorbed better than ferric ironGastric acidity helps to keep iron in the ferrous state and
soluble in the upper gut
Formation of insoluble complexes with phytate orphosphate decreases iron absorptionIron absorption is increased with low iron stores and
increased erythropoietic activity, e.g. bleeding,
haemolysis, high altitudeThere is a decreased absorption in iron overload , except in
hereditary haemochromatosis, where it is increased

Dietary haem iron is more rapidly absorbed than nonhaemiron derived from vegetables and grain.
Most haem is absorbed in the proximal intestine.
The intestinal haem transporter(haem carrier protein 1) has been identified and found tobe highly expressed in the duodenum. It is upregulated by
hypoxia and iron deficiency.
Iron Absorption
-
8/4/2019 Iron Deficiency Aneamia
17/50
Non-haem iron absorption occurs primarily in the duodenum.
Non-haem iron is dissolved in the low pH of the stomachand reduced from the ferric to the ferrous form by a brushborder ferrireductase .
Enterocytes are able to sense the bodys ironrequirements
Iron Absorption

18/50
Once inside the mucosal cell, iron may be transferred
across the cell to reach the plasma, or be stored asFerritin.the bodys iron status is probably the crucial
deciding factor.
Iron stored as ferritin will be lost into thegut lumen when the mucosal cells are shed; thisregulates iron balance
Iron Absorption

Transport in the blood
The normal serum iron level is about 13 32 mol/L Iron is transported in the plasma bound to transferrin, a -globulin that is synthesized in the liver.
Each transferrin molecule binds two atoms of ferriciron and is normally one-third saturated.

Iron absorption in Iron deficiency(more TF less Ferritin is formed)Iron absorption in iron overload(More Ferritin shed with stool)

Most of the iron bound to transferrin comes frommacrophages in the reticuloendothelial system and not fromiron absorbed by the intestine.
Transferrin-bound iron becomes attached by specificreceptors to erythroblasts and reticulocytes in the
marrow and the iron is removed
In an average adult male, 20 mg of iron, chiefly obtained
from red cell breakdown in the macrophages of thereticuloendothelial system, is incorporated into Hb every day.

Iron is stored in reticuloendothelial cells,hepatocytes and skeletal musclecells (500 1500mg). About two-thirds of this is stored as ferritinand one-third as haemosiderin in normalindividuals.

Ferritin is a water-soluble complex of iron and protein. Itis more easily mobilized than haemosiderin for Hbformation.It is present in small amounts in plasma.
Haemosiderin is an insoluble iron protein complexfound in macrophages in the bone marrow, liver andspleen.Unlike ferritin, it is visible by light microscopy in tissuesections and bone marrow films after staining by Perls reaction.

Iron metabolismIron = 4-5g Per personHb 65 % of total ironReticuloendothelial system + liver = 15-30 %
Myoglobin = 4%Intracellular oxidating heme compounds = 1%Transferrin = 0.1 %Absorption of Iron:
Mianly from Duodenum.
Heme-Fe+2
from Meat (Myoglobin, hemoglobin)Fe+2 from small intestine (Fe +3 reduced by Vit C & ferrireductase (FR) to Fe +2 for absorption)
Transport of Iron:Iron + Apotransferrin [protein from liver] Transferrin (Bound) is takenup by endocytosis into erythroblasts and cells of the liver, placenta, etc. withthe aid of transferrin receptors.
Storage & Recycling:Ferritin one of the chief forms in which iron is stored in the body, storageoccurs mainly in the intestinal mucosa, liver, bone marrow, red blood cells,and plasma. (4500 Fe +3 ions i.e. 600mg as readily available store).
Hemosidrin In marcophages of liver and bone marrow (250mg) slowrelease.
97 % recycled by phagocytes of liver, spleen and bone marrow 26
