Chen H, Wang X, Chang Z, Zhang J, Xie D. Evidence for genetic causality between iron homeostasis and Parkinson's disease: A two-sample Mendelian randomization study. J Trace Elem Med Biol 2024; 84:127430. [PMID: 38484633 DOI: 10.1016/j.jtemb.2024.127430] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/01/2024] [Revised: 03/07/2024] [Accepted: 03/09/2024] [Indexed: 05/27/2024]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Parkinson's disease (PD) is a degenerative disease of the central nervous system, and its specific etiology is still unclear. At present, it is believed that the main pathological basis is the reduction of dopamine concentration in the brain striatum. Although many previous studies have believed that iron as an important nutrient element participates in the occurrence and development of PD, whether there is a causal correlation between total iron binding capacity(TIBC), transferring saturation(TSAT), ferritin and serum iron in iron homeostasis indicators and PD, there has been a lack of effective genetic evidence. METHODS We used Mendelian randomization (MR) as an analytical method to effectively evaluate the genetic association between exposure and outcome, based on the largest genome-wide association study (GWAS) data to date. By using randomly assigned genetic instrumental variables (SNPs, Single Nucleotide Polymorphisms) that are not affected by any causal relationship, we effectively evaluated the causal relationship between iron homeostasis indicators and PD while controlling for confounding factors. RESULTS By coordinated analysis of 86 SNPs associated with iron homeostasis markers and 12,858,066 SNPs associated with PD, a total of 56 SNPs were finally screened for genome-wide significance of iron homeostasis associated with PD. The results of inverse variance weighting(IVW) analysis suggested that iron( β = - 0.524; 95%cl=-0.046 to -0.002; P=0.032) was considered to have a genetic causal relationship with PD. Cochran's Q, Egger intercept and MR-PRESSO global tests did not detect the existence of heterogeneity and pleiotropy (P>0.05). Mr Steiger directionality test further confirmed our estimation of the potential causal direction of iron and PD (P=0.001). In addition, TIBC (β=-0.142; 95%Cl=-0.197-0.481; P=0.414), TSAT (β=-0.316; 95%Cl=-0.861-0.229; P=0.255), and ferritin (β=-0.387; 95%Cl=-1.179-0.405; P=0.338) did not have genetic causal relationships with PD, and the results were not heterogeneous and pleiotropic (P>0.05). In addition, TIBC (β=-0.142; 95%Cl=-0.197-0.481; P=0.414), TSAT (β=-0.316; 95%Cl=-0.861-0.229; P=0.255), and ferritin (β=-0.101; 95%Cl=--0.987 to -0.405; P=0.823) did not have genetic causal relationships with PD, and the results were not heterogeneous and pleiotropic (P>0.05). TIBC (P=0.008), TSAT (P=0.000) and ferritin (P=0.013) were all consistent with the estimation of MR Steiger directivity test. CONCLUSION Our study found that among the four iron homeostasis markers, there was a genetic causal association between serum iron and PD, and the serum iron level was negatively correlated with the risk of PD. In addition, TIBC, TSAT, ferritin had no genetic causal relationship with PD.

Predicting response to iron supplementation in patients with active inflammatory bowel disease (PRIme): a randomised trial protocol. BMJ Open 2024; 14:e077511. [PMID: 38296290 PMCID: PMC10828887 DOI: 10.1136/bmjopen-2023-077511] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/07/2023] [Accepted: 01/15/2024] [Indexed: 02/03/2024] Open
Abstract
INTRODUCTION Iron deficiency anaemia (IDA) is the most common systemic manifestation of inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) that has detrimental effects on quality of life (QoL) and disease outcomes. Iron deficiency (ID), with or without anaemia, poses a diagnostic and therapeutic challenge in patients with IBD due to the multifactorial nature of ID(A) and its frequent recurrence. Elevated hepcidin-a systemic iron regulator that modulates systemic iron availability and intestinal iron absorption-has been associated with oral iron malabsorption in IBD. Therefore, hepcidin could assist in therapeutic decision-making. In this study, we investigate whether hepcidin can predict response to oral and intravenous iron supplementation in patients with active IBD undergoing anti-inflammatory treatment. METHODS AND ANALYSIS PRIme is an exploratory, multicentre, open-label and randomised trial. All adult patients with active IBD and ID(A) will be assessed for eligibility. The participants (n=90) will be recruited at five academic hospitals within the Netherlands and randomised into three groups (1:1:1): oral ferrous fumarate, oral ferric maltol or intravenous iron. Clinical and biochemical data will be collected at the baseline and after 6, 14 and 24 weeks. Blood samples will be collected to measure hepcidin and other biomarkers related to iron status. In addition, patient-reported outcomes regarding QoL and disease burden will be evaluated. The primary outcome is the utility of hepcidin as a predictive biomarker for response to iron therapy, which will be assessed using receiver operating curve analysis. ETHICS AND DISSEMINATION The study has been approved by the Institutional Review Board at the Leiden University Medical Center (IRB No. P21.109) and other study sites. All participants will provide written informed consent to enrol in the study. The findings will be published in a peer-reviewed journal and disseminated at scientific conferences; the dataset will be available on reasonable request. TRIAL REGISTRATION Prospectively registered in the https://clinicaltrials.gov/ and the Eudra registries. First submitted on 10 May 2022 to the ClinicalTrials.gov (ID: NCT05456932) and on 3 March 2022 to the European Union Drug Regulating Authorities Clinical Trials Database (ID: 2022-000894-16).

Abstract
Inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) is an autoimmune intestinal disease that includes ulcerative colitis, Crohn's disease, and indeterminate colitis. Patients with IBD are often at risk for malnutrition, including micronutrient deficiencies, due to dietary restrictions and poor intestinal absorption. Micronutrients, including vitamins and minerals, play an important role in the human body's metabolism and maintenance of tissue functions. This article reviews the role of micronutrients in IBD. Micronutrients can affect the occurrence and progression of IBD by regulating immunity, intestinal flora, oxidative stress, intestinal barrier function, and other aspects. Monitoring and timely supplementation of micronutrients are important to delay progression and improve clinical symptoms in IBD patients.

Effect of Intravenous Iron Administration on Bone Mineral and Iron Homeostasis in Patients with Inflammatory Bowel Disease—Results of a Prospective Single-Centre Study. J Pers Med 2023; 13:jpm13030458. [PMID: 36983640 PMCID: PMC10056873 DOI: 10.3390/jpm13030458] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/15/2023] [Revised: 02/23/2023] [Accepted: 02/28/2023] [Indexed: 03/05/2023] Open
Abstract
Introduction: Anaemia and bone metabolism alterations are common in inflammatory bowel disease (IBD), which is a heterogeneous group of diseases that include Crohn’s disease (CD) and ulcerative colitis (UC) with a rich intestinal and extraintestinal symptomatology. All these make the diagnostic procedures complicated and difficult. Purpose and scope: The aim of this study was to assess the effect of parenteral iron administration on biomarkers of mineral and bone homeostasis over time. Materials and methods: The study was a single-centre non-randomised prospective study. It was carried out between 2016 and 2020 in a group of patients in the Department of Internal Medicine and Gastroenterology Subunit of Inflammatory Bowel Diseases at the National Institute of Medicine of the Ministry of the Interior and Administration in Warsaw. At the first examination, the baseline disease severity, initial evaluation of anaemia (morphology, iron (Fe), total iron binding capacity (TIBC), ferritin, vitamin B12, folic acid) and bone mineral metabolism including C-reactive protein (CRP), albumins, alkaline phosphatase (ALP), Calcium, osteocalcin, phosphate in serum and in urine, parathyroid hormone (PTH), vitamin D3, fibroblast growth factor (iFGF23) and procollagen type 1N propeptide (P1NP) C-terminal telopeptide (CTX), was initially assessed. On the basis of peripheral blood counts, an appropriate dose of iron (iron derisomaltose or caboxymaltose) was administered. During the subsequent appointments on week 1, 4, and 12 morphology, iron (Fe), total iron binding capacity (TIBC), ferritin, vitamin B12, folic acid, C-reactive protein (CRP), albumins, alkaline phosphatase (ALP), Calcium, osteocalcin, phosphate in serum and in urine, parathyroid hormone (PTH), vitamin D3, fibroblast growth factor (iFGF23) and procollagen type 1N propeptide (P1NP) C-terminal telopeptide (CTX), were evaluated. Results: A total of 56 patients were enrolled into the study: 24 women and 32 men. In the group, 32 patients had Crohn’s disease (CD) and 24 had ulcerative colitis (UC). We found a statistically significant increase in the concentration of albumin (p = 0.031), haemoglobin (p < 0.001), haematocrit (p < 0.001), MCV (p < 0.001), MCHC (p = 0.001), iron (p < 0.001) and ferritin (p < 0.001) after the administration of parenteral iron. The influence of individual iron formulations on the analysed parameters (phosphate concentration in serum and in the urine, iFGF23, P1NP, PTH, vitamin D, haemoglobin and ferritin) was similar. Interestingly, an inverse correlation was found between the concentration of phosphorus in the blood and iFGF23 at certain time-points; however, in the study group they did not significantly affect the disturbances of calcium and phosphate metabolism. Conclusions: In the study group, transient and non-significant disorders of phosphate metabolism were found, which does not constitute a contraindication to treatment with parenteral iron in inflammatory bowel disease patients, which was safe and efficient.

Abstract
Depression is one of the most common diseases in the older population. Difficulties in recognizing its etiology and recurrence make depression a major challenge for health care professionals. The risk of developing depression is influenced by many factors, including lifestyle and diet. Research studies have shown a relationship between the consumption of specific macro- and microelements and depression. However, so far, no nutritional recommendations on how to reduce the risk of the disease and its relapses in older adults have been developed. This review outlines research results of conducted studies and focuses on both basic and potentially promising elements of diet, such as proteins, carbohydrates, fats, dietary fiber, vitamins (D, E, C, and B), and microelements such as magnesium, zinc, selenium, or iron.

Abstract
Introduction: Iron Deficiency Anemia (IDA) is a leading cause of anemia in Inflammatory Bowel disease (IBD). IDA affects quality of life (QoL) and lead to developmental and cognitive abnormalities. Diagnosis of IDA in IBD is complicated as biochemical tests available at present cannot help distinguish between IDA and anemia of chronic disease. Soluble transferrin receptor ferritin index has been gaining popularity as it can diagnose IDA in presence of chronic inflammation. ECCO guidelines recommend a Hb increase of >2 g/dL and a TfS of >30% within 4 weeks as adequate therapeutic response. IV iron is preferred over oral iron as it bypasses gastrointestinal tract, rapidly increases haemoglobin, and is not associated with intestinal inflammation. Our aim in this review is to provide apathway for physicians to help them diagnose and appropriately treat IDA in IBD.Areas covered: In this review article, we have discussed current diagnosis and treatment in detail and have proposed new directions on how future research can help manage IDA in IBD effectively.Expert opinion: Understanding the pathogenesis of IDA in IBD will further lead to exploring new potential diagnostic tests and treatment regimens for effective management of IDA in IBD.
