Human Liver Ferritin
Ferritin is a glycoprotein produced in Human Liver having a molecular mass of 440- 450kDa and pI of 5.5, which stores iron atoms in the ferric state. It is predominantly intracellular, where it forms an exchangeable pool of iron acting as an iron store. Ferritin level in serum is directly proportional to body iron stores and serum levels are an excellent indicator in monitoring iron status in anemia.
It can be used as a marker for inflammation and also used for monitoring and prediction of future events in coronary artery disease.
