What diseases are associated with high iron binding capacity?
Low iron will result in poor oxygen uptake, weakness, dizziness and a general feeling of being unhealthy. Anemia is also a result of low iron. It's a decrease in the number of blood cells you have in your body.
Which pigment cause discoloration in bronze diabetes?
iron. hemochromatosis is a disease state in iron metabolism which causes a condition known as bronze diabete. this is a rare disease in which iron is directly deposited in the tissues(liver, spleen, and pancreas). it is sometimes accompanied by hemosiderosis. bronzed pigmentation of the skin, cirrhosis of liver, pancreatic fibrosis are the manifestations.
What disorder linked may high blood iron?
High blood iron levels are commonly associated with hemochromatosis, a genetic disorder that leads to excessive absorption of iron from the diet. This condition can result in iron overload, potentially damaging organs such as the liver, heart, and pancreas. Other disorders linked to elevated iron levels include hemosiderosis and certain types of anemia, such as sideroblastic anemia. Regular monitoring and management are crucial to prevent complications from iron overload.
What conditions lead to a increase in ferritin?
liver disease, iron overload from hemochromatosis, certain types of anemia, acute leukemia, Hodgkin's disease, breast cancer, thalassemia, infections, inflammatory diseases, and hemosiderosis
What is hemosiderin-laden macrophage?
Hemosiderin is an iron-containing pigment derived in humans from ferritin. It can be found in macrophages in small amounts throughout a number of different tissues including the bone marrow, liver and the spleen as a normal way to store iron. Under certain conditions it can pathologically accumulate in excess amounts. In hemosiderosis macrophages are hemosiderin-laden but without associated damage to surrounding tissue. When there more extensive accumulation occurs, it can lead to surrounding tissue damage, scarring and organ dysfunction. This is called hemochromatosis.

What does high ferritin levels mean?
If ferritin is high, there is iron in excess or else there is an acute inflammatory reaction in which ferritin is mobilized without iron excess. For example, ferritins may be high in infection without signalling body iron overload.Ferritin is also used as a marker for iron overload disorders, such as hemochromatosis or hemosiderosis. Adult-onset Still's disease, porphyria, and Hemophagocytic lymphohistiocytosis are diseases in which the ferritin level may be abnormally raised. As ferritin is also an acute-phase reactant, it is often elevated in the course of disease. A normal C-reactive protein can be used to exclude elevated ferritin caused by acute phase reactions.According to a study of anorexia nervosa patients, ferritin can be elevated during periods of acute malnourishment
