In this #webinar, Prof Christiaan Leeuwenburgh from the Department of Physiology and Ageing in University of Florida, United States, spoke about iron deregulation and ageing. His research focus is on understanding the molecular mechanisms of mitochondrial dysfunction, iron transport deregulation, autophagy and oxidative damage to Mt DNA in advanced age in animal models and humans.

One way to deal with it is draw blood monthly and just use it for prp for whatever you want- like hair growth boosting or skin improvement. By doing this draw every month, you will rid of some accumulated iron.

I love this webinar series! By any chance, is there any aging seminar, PhD course, or online course from NUS that can be taken from external people (students, PhDs, postdocs)? Thank you and keep up the good work!

Prof Leeuwenburgh presented his research area very clearly and interesting. I enjoyed very much the Q and A section of this talk!

Any datas on aging of hemochromatosis people? What would we expect, based on epidemiologic studies, for hemochromatosis patient with normal ferritin(~60-70ng/mL) moderately high Iron (>180ug/dL) and moderately high transferrin saturation (>50%)?

Can one use standard blood panels markers like hsCRP, ferritin, transferrin, etc to infer iron dysregulation? For example, is ferritin a useful marker of tissue accumulation and should we be looking to keep it towards low end of reference range?
