The Role of Ferritin in Health and Disease: Recent Advances and Understandings

Kotla, Nikhil Kumar, Dutta, Priyata, Parimi, Sanjana, Das, Nupur K.·2022·Metabolites

Abstract

Systemic iron homeostasis needs to be tightly controlled, as both deficiency and excess iron cause major global health concerns, such as iron deficiency anemia, hemochromatosis, etc. In mammals, sufficient dietary acquisition is critical for fulfilling the systemic iron requirement. New questions are emerging about whether and how cellular iron transport pathways integrate with the iron storage mechanism. Ferritin is the intracellular iron storage protein that stores surplus iron after all the cellular needs are fulfilled and releases it in the face of an acute demand. Currently, there is a surge in interest in ferritin research after the discovery of novel pathways like ferritinophagy and ferroptosis. This review emphasizes the most recent ferritin-related discoveries and their impact on systemic iron regulation.

Figures

Figure 1 Recent advances in understanding the regulation of cellular iron storage mechanism. After cellular uptake, PCBPs act as iron chaperones to deliver iron to ferritin. During conditions of increased demand, NCOA4 acts as a cargo receptor for lysosomal degradation of ferritin, followed by increased labile iron pool (LIP) level. Excess iron contributes to lipid peroxidation-mediated ferroptosis.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
