## Background: Porphyria cutanea tarda (pct) is associated in most cases with iron overload, which may participate in decreased activity of uroporphyrinogen decarboxylase in the liver. the aetiology of this iron overload remains unknown; however, it has been demonstrated that mutations of hfe, the
Specific binding of ferric bovine transferrin to the human transferrin receptor was investigated using K562 cells propagated in serum-free medium without transferrin supplemented with elemental iron. Affinit chromatography of solubilized extracts of K562 cells surface-labeled with 5l was performed u
