17 Απρ 2023 · Iron is an essential element of various metabolic processes in humans, including DNA synthesis, electron transport, and oxygen transport. Unlike other minerals, iron levels in the human body are controlled only by absorption.
1 Οκτ 2017 · Systemic iron homeostasis is concerned with the adequate supply of iron for key physiological processes such as erythropoiesis, and developmental processes such as bone growth and neuronal development (where iron is required for myelination).
12 Ιουν 2020 · There are many iron-containing proteins in addition to hemoglobin which play a very important role in many biochemical pathways including the tricarboxylic acid cycle, DNA synthesis and the metabolism of proteins, lipids, carbohydrates and nucleic acids (Table 1).
Human iron metabolism is the set of chemical reactions that maintain human homeostasis of iron at the systemic and cellular level. Iron is both necessary to the body and potentially toxic. Controlling iron levels in the body is a critically important part of many aspects of human health and disease.
6 Μαρ 2024 · Iron is required for cellular respiration and various biochemical processes that ensure the proper functioning of cells and organs in the human body, including the brain. Iron also plays an important role in the production of free radicals, which can be beneficial or harmful to cells under various conditions.
I. Introduction. Iron has several vital functions in the body. It serves as a carrier of oxygen to the tissues from the lungs by red blood cell haemoglobin, as a transport medium for electrons within cells, and as an integrated part of important enzyme systems in various tissues.
25 Ιουλ 2016 · Iron (Fe) is an essential, multifunctional micronutrient that has been shown to function in oxygen transport through its role in hemoglobin, as a crucial cofactor in the electron transport chain, and as a cofactor during DNA synthesis (Beard et al. 1996).
