The effect of acute inflammation on iron metabolism in rats. 1983

T Uchida, and T Igarashi, and T Suzuki, and K Kokubun, and S Matsuda, and S Kariyone

Iron metabolism in rats with acute turpentine-induced inflammation was evaluated. In acute inflammation, reduced plasma iron and total iron-binding capacity values, shortened plasma iron disappearance time and lower plasma iron turnover were observed. The administration of 59Fe chondroitin ferrous sulfate in order to evaluate the reticuloendothelial (RE) function revealed a significantly increased 59Fe retention in the liver and lower incorporation into red blood cells. Radioactivity in hepatic RE cells was higher in acute inflammation than in control. These results suggest the possibility of a block in the transfer of iron from RE cells to the plasma iron pool during acute inflammation.

D007249 Inflammation A pathological process characterized by injury or destruction of tissues caused by a variety of cytologic and chemical reactions. It is usually manifested by typical signs of pain, heat, redness, swelling, and loss of function.

D012157 Mononuclear Phagocyte System Mononuclear cells with pronounced phagocytic ability that are distributed extensively in lymphoid and other organs. It includes MACROPHAGES and their precursors; PHAGOCYTES; KUPFFER CELLS; HISTIOCYTES; DENDRITIC CELLS; LANGERHANS CELLS; and MICROGLIA. The term mononuclear phagocyte system has replaced the former reticuloendothelial system, which also included less active phagocytic cells such as fibroblasts and endothelial cells.

D001853 Bone Marrow The soft tissue filling the cavities of bones. Bone marrow exists in two types, yellow and red. Yellow marrow is found in the large cavities of large bones and consists mostly of fat cells and a few primitive blood cells. Red marrow is a hematopoietic tissue and is the site of production of erythrocytes and granular leukocytes. Bone marrow is made up of a framework of connective tissue containing branching fibers with the frame being filled with marrow cells.

D005293 Ferritins Iron-containing proteins that are widely distributed in animals, plants, and microorganisms. Their major function is to store IRON in a nontoxic bioavailable form. Each ferritin molecule consists of ferric iron in a hollow protein shell (APOFERRITINS) made of 24 subunits of various sequences depending on the species and tissue types. Basic Isoferritin,Ferritin,Isoferritin,Isoferritin, Basic
D000818 Animals Unicellular or multicellular, heterotrophic organisms, that have sensation and the power of voluntary movement. Under the older five kingdom paradigm, Animalia was one of the kingdoms. Under the modern three domain model, Animalia represents one of the many groups in the domain EUKARYOTA.
