Serum transferrin receptors were measured by a sandwich radioimmunoassay
procedure in patients with iron deficiency anemia, autoimmune hemolytic
anemia and aplastic anemia. The mean circulating transferrin receptor
concentration of normal subjects and patients with iron deficiency anemia,
autoimmune hemolytic anemia and aplastic anemia are 253 +/- 82 ng/mL, 730
+/- 391 ng/mL, 1,426 +/- 1,079 ng/mL, and 182 +/- 39 ng/mL, respectively.
The values for those with iron deficiency anemia and autoimmune hemolytic
anemia were significantly higher than that of normal controls and the
values for those with aplastic anemia were lower than that of normal
controls. After iron supplementation in iron deficiency anemia, the serum
transferrin receptor values increased twofold over those of pretreatment
values. This increase parallels an increase in peripheral reticulocytes.
Therefore, the number of circulating transferrin receptors in anemic
patients may reflect the level of bone marrow erythropoiesis and is a
potentially useful new index for red cell production.
