}Systemic iron requirements are met predominantly through the recycling of iron from senescent erythrocytes by macrophages, a process in which the iron exporter ferroportin (Fpn1) is considered to be essential. Yet the role of Fpn1 in macrophage iron recycling and whether it influences innate immune responses are poorly understood in vivo. We inactivated Fpn1 in macrophages by crossing Fpn1-floxed animals with macrophage-targeted LysM-Cre or F4/80-Cre transgenic mice. Macrophage Fpn1 deletion…

Fpn1 is critical for both hepatocyte iron mobilization and macrophage iron recycling during conditions of dietary iron deficiency, revealing new insights into the relationships between Fpn1‐mediated iron mobilization, iron storage, and intestinal iron absorption and how these processes interact to maintain systemic iron homeostasis.
Ferroportin deficiency in erythroid cells causes serum iron deficiency and promotes hemolysis due to oxidative stress.

Impaired iron recycling from erythrocytes is an early iron-dependent hallmark of aging

RPM dysfunction is identified as an early hallmark of physiological aging and dietary iron reduction improves iron turnover efficacy and it is found that feeding mice an iron-reduced diet alleviates iron accumulation and reactive oxygen species build-up in RPMs, restores mitochondrial and lysosomal functions, and improves their ability to clear erythrocytes.

Physiological functions of ferroportin in the regulation of renal iron recycling and ischemic acute kidney injury.

FPN deletion in the proximal tubules alleviated ischemic acute kidney injury, possibly by upregulating FTH1 to limit catalytic iron and by priming antioxidant mechanisms, indicating that FPN could be deleterious in the pathophysiology of isChemic acute kidneys injury (AKI) and thus may be a potential target for the prevention and mitigation of ischymic AKI.

Results provide compelling evidence that iron plays a key role in triggering Slc7a11‐mediated ferroPTosis and suggest that ferroptosis may be a promising target for treating hemochromatosis‐related tissue damage.
Hepatic Transferrin Plays a Role in Systemic Iron Homeostasis and Liver Ferroptosis.

Treating hepatocyte-specific Trf knockout mice with the ferroptosis inhibitor ferrostatin-1 potently rescued liver fibrosis induced by either high dietary iron or carbon tetrachloride (CCl4) injections, and deleting hepatic Slc39a14 expression in Trf-LKO mice significantly reduced hepatic iron accumulation, indicate that hepatic transferrin plays a protective role in maintaining liver function.

The findings suggest that the enhancement of ferroportin 1‐mediated iron efflux, the upregulation of the haem‐degrading enzyme haem oxygenase 1 and the induction of lipocalin 2 following infection concordantly aim at withholding iron from intracellular S. typhimurium and to increase antimicrobial immune effector pathways thus limiting pathogen proliferation.

The data support a model in which the lack of hepcidin is responsible of the high inflammatory response to LPS in iron deficiency, and the proinflammatory status associated with chronic iron deficiency could explain the resistance to infection seen in this condition.
