RBCs live only 120 days • In macrophages of or spleen: Cells wear out from bending to fit through capillaries – Globin portion is broken down into amino acids and recycled Repair is not possible due to lack of organelles Worn out cells are removed by macrophages in spleen and liver – portion is split into iron Breakdown products are recycled (Fe+3) and (green pigment)

B12 Pernicious anemia is a type of megaloblastic anemia in which the body isn't able to absorb vitamin B12 due to a lack of intrinsic factor in stomach secretions.

Rate of iron absorption depend on the amount of iron stored Transport and storage of iron

-Ferritin: intracellular iron-storage protein -Ferritin that is not combined with iron is called apoferritin. Haemosiderin (insoluble complex molecule, in liver, spleen, bone marrow) Forms of Storage Transport and storage of Ferritin iron (apoferritin + iron)

Form of Transferrin Transportation (apotransferrin + (in plasma) iron)

Daily loss of iron is 0.6 mg in male & 1.3mg/day in females. Destruction of RBC

RBC life span in circulation = 120 days

Old cell has a fragile cell membrane, cell will rupture as it passes in narrow capillaries (and spleen).

Released Hemoglobin is taken up by macrophages in liver, spleen & bone marrow

Iron (get away from the heme)→ Hb is broken into its ferritin (iron without heme) component

Globin Heam

()→ bilirubin→ secreted by Polypeptide → amino acids Iron → ferrtin the liver into . [excess destruction (protein pool = storage) of RBC ] Quiz 1) Which of the following nutrient deficiencies is most often associated with microcytic hypochromic anemia? A) Cobalamin B) Folic acid C) Iron D)

2) The protein responsible for iron transport in plasma is

A) α 1 -anti trypsin B) Ferritin C) Apo-transferrin D) Apo-ferritin key answers: 1) C 3) A 30 years old male is brought to the hospital with history of gastrectomy. His skin appears lemon-yellow.Investigations 2) C reveal hemoglobin 10 g/dl, odd shaped RBCs and Serum Vitamin B 12 is low. He is likely to be sufferingfrom: 3) D A) Hemolytic Anemia C) Pernicious Anemia D) Megaloblastic Anemia 4) A B) Aplastic Anemia 5) C 4) A 34-year-old man with schizophrenia has chronic fatigue for 6 months. He has a good appetite but has developed adislike for vegetables since last 1 year. Hisphysical and neurological examinations are normal.
