On the other hand, in humans, only low-birth-weight infants, including premature infants, are especially susceptible to developing IDA. In both human and pig neonates, the initial cause of IDA is low birth iron stores. In piglets this shortage of stored iron results mainly from genetic selection over the past few decades for large litter sizes and high birth weights. As a consequence, pregnant sows cannot provide a sufficient amount of iron to the increasing number of developing fetuses. Supplementation with iron is a common practice for the treatment of IDA in piglets. For decades, the preferred procedure for delivering iron supplements during early life stages has been through the intramuscular injection of a large amount of iron dextran. However, this relatively simple therapy, which in general, efficiently corrects IDA, may generate toxic effects, and by inducing hepcidin expression, may decrease bioavailability of supplemental iron. New iron supplements are considered herein with the aim to combine the improvement of hematological status, blunting of hepcidin expression, and minimizing the toxicity of the administered iron. We propose that iron-deficient piglets constitute a convenient animal model for performing pre-clinical studies with iron supplements.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.3390\/ph11040128","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2018,11,23]],"date-time":"2018-11-23T03:41:31Z","timestamp":1542944491000},"page":"128","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.3390\/mdpi_crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":51,"title":["Iron Supplementation in Suckling Piglets: An Ostensibly Easy Therapy of Neonatal Iron Deficiency Anemia"],"prefix":"10.3390","volume":"11","author":[{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-4984-885X","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Mateusz","family":"Szudzik","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Molecular Biology, Institute of Genetics and Animal Breeding, Polish Academy of Sciences, Jastrz\u0119biec, 05-552 Magdalenka, Poland"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Rafa\u0142 R.","family":"Starzy\u0144ski","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Molecular Biology, Institute of Genetics and Animal Breeding, Polish Academy of Sciences, Jastrz\u0119biec, 05-552 Magdalenka, Poland"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Aneta","family":"Jo\u0144czy","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Molecular Biology, Institute of Genetics and Animal Breeding, Polish Academy of Sciences, Jastrz\u0119biec, 05-552 Magdalenka, Poland"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0001-6706-0882","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Rafa\u0142","family":"Mazgaj","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Molecular Biology, Institute of Genetics and Animal Breeding, Polish Academy of Sciences, Jastrz\u0119biec, 05-552 Magdalenka, Poland"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Ma\u0142gorzata","family":"Lenartowicz","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Genetics and Evolution, Institute of Zoology, Jagiellonian University, Gronostajowa 9, 30-387 Krak\u00f3w, Poland"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-0121-4460","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Pawe\u0142","family":"Lipi\u0144ski","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Molecular Biology, Institute of Genetics and Animal Breeding, Polish Academy of Sciences, Jastrz\u0119biec, 05-552 Magdalenka, Poland"},{"name":"Department of Genetics and Animal Breeding, Poznan University of Life Sciences, Wo\u0142y\u0144ska 33, 60-637 Pozna\u0144, Poland"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"1968","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2018,11,22]]},"reference":[{"key":"ref_1","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"225","DOI":"10.1016\/j.blre.2017.02.004","article-title":"New insights into iron deficiency and iron deficiency anemia","volume":"31","author":"Camaschella","year":"2016","journal-title":"Blood Rev."},{"key":"ref_2","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"221","DOI":"10.1016\/j.blre.2010.08.001","article-title":"Anaemia of prematurity: Pathophysiology and treatment","volume":"24","author":"Strauss","year":"2010","journal-title":"Blood Rev."},{"key":"ref_3","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"314","DOI":"10.1016\/S0368-1742(47)80037-2","article-title":"Iron metabolism in piglet anemia","volume":"5","author":"Venn","year":"1947","journal-title":"J.
