homeostasis/metabolism
• young adults exhibit high transferrin saturation and a marked increase in serum ferritin levels
• increase in amylase and elastase levels but lower than in homozygotes
• increase in plasma lipase levels but lower than in homozygotes
• iron accumulation in the exocrine pancreas, but to a smaller extent than in homozygotes
• decrease in splenic iron levels at 8 and 24 weeks of age
• selective iron depletion is seen within iron-recycling macrophages of the red pulp

hematopoietic system
• decrease in splenic iron levels at 8 and 24 weeks of age
• selective iron depletion is seen within iron-recycling macrophages of the red pulp

cellular
