The use of BeWo cells as an in vitro model for placental iron transport.

TL;DR: Evaluated structural and functional properties of confluent b30 BeWo cell layers grown in bicameral chambers suggest these cells are very efficient at transporting iron and, under carefully controlled conditions, can be a valuable tool for the study of iron transport in the placenta.

6 Diagnosis and clinical evaluation of iron overload

TL;DR: In combination with screening parameters such as serum ferritin and TIBC saturation these new but expensive diagnostic tools may simplify and shorten the diagnostic process and may also be useful for monitoring the treatment of iron overload by phlebotomy or chelating drugs.
Journal ArticleDOI

Erythropoiesis and iron kinetics.

TL;DR: The flow of iron from the plasma to the marrow dominates the picture of iron metabolism and it has long seemed possible that monitoring this pathway would provide an indirect reflection of erythroid activity, but it is only more recently that the early promise has begun to be realized.

Estimation of iron absorption in humans using compartmental modelling

TL;DR: Results indicate that a compartmental model can be used to estimate labelled iron absorption although it is unlikely that this new method will be used in favour of an existing one.
Journal ArticleDOI

Quantification of unlabelled non-haem iron absorption in human subjects: a pilot study.

TL;DR: A method for measuring unlabelled Fe absorption has been investigated in a pilot study using a simple mathematical model and initial results are encouraging, but further work needs to be undertaken with smaller doses, as typically found in meals.
