To study the effect of iron-overload on hepatic lipid peroxidation, two rat models of haemochromatosis were employed: in the first model resembling secondary haemochromatosis, repeated i.p. injections with Fe-dextran led to an accumulation of Fe in Kupffer cells, while in the second model resembling
In both hereditary hemochromatosis (HHC) and in the various forms of secondary hemochromatosis, there is a pathological expansion of total body iron stores, due mainly to an inappropriate increase in absorption of dietary iron (1-3). The liver is the major recipient of this excess absorbed iron, and
