Outline of Final Research Achievements |
We found the impaired expression of duodenal iron transporters in heart failure (HF) and chronic kidney disease (CKD) model rats. Duodenal expression of crucial iron transporters, such as duodenal cytochrome b and divalent metal transporter 1 was not increased in both HF and CKD model rats despite being under iron-deficient conditions. As a result, our data suggests that impaired intestinal iron absorption may be a novel therapeutic target in cardio-renal anemia syndrome.
