QuestionAnswer
increase absorption of nonheme ironhydrochloric acid
decrease serum iron = decrease transferrin Saturationincrease of iron binding capacity
Ferric = Ferrous via what enzymeDuodenal cytochrome B
aka master regulator of iron in the circulationHepcidin
absorbable form of ironFe2
carrier form of iron in the circulationFe3
enzyme that transport Iron to enterocyteHeme carrier transporter 1 (HCP1)
Enzyme that separates Heme and FerrousHeme oxygenase 1 (HO1)
Heme contains what form of ironFerrous (Fe 2)
non heme has a ______ type of ironferric(Fe 3)
Ferric = Ferrous via what enzymeDuodenal cytochrome B
DCYTB has an enzyme that reduces Fe3 to Fe2 ;Ferric Reductase
co-factor of non-heme transportvitamin C
increase activity of Ferric Reductasevitamin c
carries transformed non heme Fe2 into the enterocyteDivalent metal transporter (DMT1)
_____is only absorbable compound of ironFerrous (Fe2)
when there is an increase in iron it will be stored as ___Ferritin
allows Fe2 to enter the circulation through this transportFerroportin transporter
Regulates the release of Fe2 into the circulationHepcidin
aka master regulator of iron in the circulationHepcidin
Fe2 released by the Ferroportin must become a Fe3 due toFe2 cannot transported by the transferrin
