The literature surrounding norepinephrine and its role in the development of iron deficient hypertrophy documents the following facts: 1) prolonged iron deficiency causes cardiac hypertrophy [ 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 23 ] , 2) the pool of stored norepinephrine in the heart is decreased with iron deficiency [ 17 21 ] , 3) plasma and urine concentrations of norepinephrine are increased with iron deficiency [ 19 20 21 22 68 ] , and 4) chronic administration of reserpine (which depletes norepinephrine) prevents the development of iron deficient hypertrophy [ 12 ] , but not hypertrophy that results from aortic banding [ 23 ] . This, combined with other studies that relate chronic adrenergic stimulation to hypertrophy, led Rossi to the conclusion that iron deficiency hypertrophy was caused by chronic sympathetic stimulation.
