Iron deficient blood cells & haemoglobin molecule
Iron-deficiency anaemia and haemoglobin. Artwork of irregularly shaped red blood cells (red) in a patient suffering from iron-deficiency anaemia. At centre is a molecule of haemoglobin, the blood pigment that carries oxygen. Haemoglobin consists of chains of amino acids folded into four globin subunits (blue and pink). The haem groups (green) surround the iron atoms (blue) which can bind to oxygen atoms (red spheres). Iron-deficiency anaemia is caused by a deficiency of iron, an essential component of haemoglobin. Many of the cells are irregularly shaped and this reduces their oxygen-carrying capacity. Symptoms include tiredness, dizziness and a pale skin

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print from Science Photo Library showcases the intricate details of iron-deficient blood cells and the haemoglobin molecule, shedding light on the condition known as iron-deficiency anaemia. The artwork vividly depicts irregularly shaped red blood cells in a patient suffering from this disorder, emphasizing their reduced oxygen-carrying capacity. At the center of attention is the remarkable haemoglobin molecule, responsible for transporting oxygen throughout our bodies. The haemoglobin structure consists of four globin subunits intricately folded chains of amino acids in shades of blue and pink. Surrounding these subunits are vibrant green haem groups that encase essential iron atoms capable of binding to life-giving oxygen molecules represented by red spheres. Iron-deficiency anaemia arises due to an insufficient supply of iron, a vital component required for proper functioning of haemoglobin. As a consequence, many blood cells lose their regular shape, resulting in symptoms such as fatigue, dizziness, and pale skin tone. This visually stunning artwork not only provides valuable insights into this medical condition but also serves as a reminder about the importance of maintaining adequate levels of iron within our bodies. Through its artistic representation combined with scientific accuracy, this image invites contemplation on health care and encourages further exploration into understanding diseases like iron deficiency anaemia.
