Iron loading: a risk factor for osteoporosis.

Iron loaded persons are at increased risk for infection, neoplasia,
arthropathy, cardiomyopathy and an array of endocrine and
neurodegenerative diseases. This report summarizes evidence of
increased risk of iron loading for osteoporosis. Iron suppresses bone
remodeling apparently by decreasing osteoblast formation and new bone
synthesis. Low molecular mass iron chelators as well as a natural
protein iron chelator, lactoferrin, may be useful in prevention of
osteoporosis.
