The protein DMT-1 is involved in transfer of iron from the lumen of the gut across the enterocyte microvilli (Fig. 5). Ferroportin at the basolateral surface controls exit of iron from the cell into portal plasma. 5 The regulation of iron absorption. Dietary ferric (Fe3+) iron is reduced to Fe2+ and its entry to the enterocyte is through the divalent cation binder DMT-1.

Chapter 3 Hypochromic anaemias / 45 cell antibodies, Helicobacter infection and serum gastrin level may help to diagnose autoimmune gastritis. In difficult cases a camera in a capsule can be swallowed which relays pictures of the gastrointestinal tract electronically.

G. thalassaemia major, megaloblastic anaemia, myelodysplasia, myelofibrosis Chronic inflammatory or malignant disease anaemia because of erythropoietin increase and be higher the more severe the anaemia. This is particularly so when there has been time for erythroid hyperplasia to develop in the marrow as in chronic haemolysis. After an acute major haemorrhage there is an erythropoietin response in 6 hours, the reticulocyte count rises within 2–3 days, reaches a maximum in 6–10 days and remains raised until the haemoglobin returns to the normal level.
