TLDR
Iron has the capacity to accept and donate electrons readily, interconverting between ferric (Fe2+) and ferrous (Fe3+) forms, which makes it a useful component of cytochromes, oxygen-binding molecules, and many enzymes.Abstract:

TL;DR: In this paper, three coordination polymers were assembled by reactions using Ag+ as a node with the pyridyl ligand 1,2,4,5-tetrakis(4-pyridine)benzene (bztpy) or 9,10-bis(4pyrideyl)anthracene (Bpa) and an auxiliary chelating carboxylic ligand.

TL;DR: Investigation of the association between three polymorphisms of the TF gene found a decrease in KC occurrence associated with the A/G genotype of the g.3296G>A polymorphism, while the G allele was negatively correlated with it and no association was found between all three polymorphism and FECD occurrence.

TL;DR: Using linkage-disequilibrium and full haplotype analysis, this paper identified a 250-kilobase region more than 3 megabases telomeric of the major histocompatibility complex (MHC) that is identical-by-descent in 85% of patient chromosomes.

A novel MHC class-I-like gene is mutated in patients with hereditary haemochromatosis
TL;DR: Using linkage–disequilibrium and full haplotype analysis, a region more than 3 megabases telomeric of the major histocompatibility complex (MHC) that is identical–by–descent in 85% of patient chromosomes is identified, containing a gene related to the MHC class I family, termed HLA–H, containing two missense alterations.

Prevalence of Iron Deficiency in the United States
TL;DR: Iron deficiency and iron deficiency anemia are still relatively common in toddlers, adolescent girls, and women of childbearing age and were more likely in those who are minority, low income, and multiparous.

Microcytic anaemia mice have a mutation in Nramp2, a candidate iron transporter gene.
Joseph V. Gray,Keith J. Johnson +1 more
TL;DR: A positional cloning strategy is undertaken to identify the causative mutation in mice with microcytic anaemia, and it is suggested that the phenotype is a consequence of a missense mutation in Nramp2 (ref. 5), a previously identified gene of unknown function.
