HFE

The HFE H63D is a single-nucleotide polymorphism in the HFE gene (c.187C>G, rs1799945), which results in the substitution of a histidine for an aspartic acid at amino acid position 63 of the HFE protein (p.His63Asp). HFE participates in the regulation of iron absorption.[1][2][3]

Homozygous H63D variant can occasionally be the cause of hemochromatosis. It is also associated with the occurrence of other conditions like hypotransferrinemia,[4][5] liver dysfunction,[6][7] bone and joint issues, diabetes mellitus, heart disease, hormone imbalances, porphyria cutanea tarda (PCT), infertility, stroke,[8] neurodegenerative and brain damages,[9] some cancers, venous and peripheral artery disease.[10][11]

Health impacts

The primary risk associated with the H63D mutation is brain damage, as iron accumulation can cause oxidation within affected cells, ultimately leading to cell death and scarring of the brain tissue.[12][13] Another potential consequence is abnormal levels of tau proteins and alpha-synuclein, which play a role in conditions like Alzheimer's,[14] Lewy body dementia, and Parkinson’s;[15][16][17][18] patients homozygous for the H63D mutation show a higher risk of earlier signs of cognitive impairment and earlier onset of dementias compared to individuals with normal or heterozygous genotypes.[citation needed]

A study in 2020 predicted that the H63D variant may be a risk factor for incidental amyotrophic lateral sclerosis in a Han Chinese population.[19]

Some individuals with the homozygous H63D variant may show signs of heart disease, cardiomyopathies, and disturbances in the calcium channels in particular.[20][21]

The homozygous H63D variant is an indicator of the iron metabolism disorder hemochromatosis, which may increase the risk of developing a fatty liver.[22] In patients with a cirrhotic liver, the mutation can increase the rate of liver cancer.[6][23][24]

Athletic advantage

A 2020 study revealed that the homozygous H63D variant (as well as the heterozygous one) is significantly higher in elite endurance athletes comparing to ethnically-matched controls in Russian and Japanese populations, and is associated with high V̇O2max in male athletes.[25]
