Serum ferritin is elevated in conditions of iron overload, liver disease, alcohol abuse, nicotine product abuse (used to stop smoking) and in people who are sick with illnesses, which causes inflammation. SF is naturally elevated in newborns and infants. Serum ferritin is low in people who are iron deficient. Read about elevated serum ferritin in infants and newborns or about Anemia of Chronic Disease (ACD) also called anemia of inflammatory response.

Although ferritin does act as an “iron storage” facility, another key function of ferritin is to contain iron withholding the metal from harmful invaders. As part of  the body’s natural defense system iron gets shuttled to ferritin. This function is activated and stepped up when inflammation is present in the body.

The TIBC is the total iron binding capacity; it equals UIBC(Unsaturated Iron Binding Capacity)plus the serum iron measurement. ......
