      Hereditary hemochromatosis (HH) is an iron metabolism disease clinically characterized by excessive iron deposition in parenchymal organs such as liver, heart, pancreas, and joints. It is caused by ...
    • Novel mutations in the ferritin-L iron-responsive element that only mildly impair IRP binding cause hereditary hyperferritinaemia cataract syndrome 

      Luscieti, Sara; Tolle, Gabriele; Aranda, Jessica; Benet Campos, Carmen; Risse, Frank; Morán, Érica; Muckenthaler, Martina U.; Sanchez-Fernandez, Mayka (Orphanet Journal of Rare Diseases, 2013)
