Fe (cellular iron), O (dioxygen, antioxidant inducers, hydrogen peroxide), and P (protein phosphorylation) signals combine to regulate DNA activity (transcription/mRNA synthesis) for antioxidant/Phase II response proteins (e.g., ferritin H, ferritin L, thioredoxin reductase I, NAD (P) H quinone oxido-reductase, heme oxygenase1 and beta-globin) and mRNA activity for proteins of iron transport, storage or oxygen metabolism (e.g., ferritin H, ferritin L, transferrin receptor1, ferroportin, mt-aconitase-TCA cycle and aminolevulinate synthase - heme biosynthesis).

BLAST searches revealed that expression of the MDH, PI4-K, ferritin, ICER, NID-2, WDNMI, telethonin, filamin, and desmin (DES) genes increased while that of GAPD, COP VII, ACTA1, CamK II, and nebulin decreased during the late fattening stage.

An iron deficiency was associated (serum iron=7 micromol/l; serum ferritin concentration=24 mg/l; serum transferrin concentration=3,16 g/l).
