31
New cards

free iron (non heme) - intake of iron by enterocytes

what do you forget

removal of iron from enterocyte

deposition of iron in liver and release into circulation again

on luminal surface of cells it is reduced from fe3 to fe2 by ferrireductase (duodenal cyt b), transported into enterocyte by divalent metal transporter

iron crosses membrane through ferroportin (crosses basolateral membrane) and hephaestin oxidses it from fe2 to fe3 again

and then fe3+ binds to transferrin and passes into liver + released into circulation again

  • hepatocytes absorb fe3+ + transferrin after it binds to tfr (transferrin receptor)

  • fe2 is released into blood and oxidised to fe3+ by ceruloplasmin and binds to transferring again

32
New cards

heme iron - intake of iron by enterocytes

transported by HCP 1 (hemetransporting protein)

iron is released by heme oxygenase and fe2+ binds to ferretin again

degradation of hemoglobin

localisaiton

main function

macrophages: how is hemohlobim degraded here, what is obtained

in liver?

describe the indirect/direct bilirubin again

macrophages and hepatocytes in the liver

main funct: erythrocutes live for 120 days - after this they degrade

  • globin = into AA (reused)

  • heme = bilirubin )and iron is released which is recycled)

MACROPHAFES:

  • under heme oxygenase, green biliverdin is produced

  • indirect bilirubin is produced (conjugated, blood, hydrophobic)

in liver, it is converted to bilirubin diglucoronide after it is conjugated with udp glucoronic acid to form bilirubin diglucoronide (bile, hydrophilic, direct)

35
New cards

metabolism of bilirubin

  • in macrophage, heme is converted to indirect bilirubin

  • is bound to albumin, transported to liver by blood

  • indirect bilirubin = taken up by parenchymal cells, conjugated to direct bilirubin and secreted into bile

  • in intestines, bilirubin is reduced to urobillonogen

  • in colon, it is oxidised to urobilins (gives poo normal colour)

  • some of urobilinogen enter kidneys and exit via blood stream, while some are reabsorbed by intestines, enter liver and re exreted (enterohepatic circulation)

36
New cards

haemolytic jaundice

reason?

degradation of large amounts of erythrocytes exceeding the capacity of a healthy liver

  • bilirubin in the blood increased (indirect)

  • no bilirubin in urine

disorder name?

reason - due to complete obstruction of bile duct due to tumour / gall stones
