摘要
Ferroportin disease is becoming recognized as the most common form of hereditary iron overload after HFE hemochromatosis, but explanations for its autosomal dominant inheritance and heterogeneous clinical presentation have been elusive. Schimanski and colleagues provide the first glimpses of mechanistic understanding of this important clinical entity.
