Figure 1 Mechanism of iron-related tissue injury in thalassemia patients. At transferrin saturation levels > 60% to 70%, levels of nontransferrin-bound serum iron (NTBI) and labile plasma iron (LPI) increase, resulting in iron-related damage to the liver, heart, bone marrow, and bones in situations of chronic iron overload after chronic transfusion therapy for thalassemia.
