Functionalizing Ferritin Nanoparticles for Vaccine Development

open access: yesPharmaceutics, 2021
In the last decade, the interest in ferritin-based vaccines has been increasing due to their safety and immunogenicity. Candidates against a wide range of pathogens are now on Phase I clinical trials namely for influenza, Epstein-Barr, and SARS-CoV-2 ...

CD63 is regulated by iron via the IRE-IRP system and is important for ferritin secretion by extracellular vesicles

open access: yesBlood, 2021
The interplay between intracellular and extracellular ferritin is not well understood despite the recognition 3 years ago that cellular ferritin can be exported into plasma by the exosome pathway.

Prognostic Values of Serum Ferritin and D-Dimer Trajectory in Patients with COVID-19

open access: yesViruses, 2021
Cytokine storm syndrome in patients with COVID-19 is mediated by pro-inflammatory cytokines resulting in acute lung injury and multiorgan failure. Elevation in serum ferritin and D-dimer is observed in COVID-19 patients. To determine prognostic values of

Evaluating methods and protocols of ferritin-based magnetogenetics

open access: yesiScience, 2021
Summary: FeRIC (Ferritin iron Redistribution to Ion Channels) is a magnetogenetic technique that uses radiofrequency (RF) alternating magnetic fields to activate the transient receptor potential channels, TRPV1 and TRPV4, coupled to cellular ferritins ...

A ferritin from Dendrorhynchus zhejiangensis with heavy metals detoxification activity. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2012
Ferritin, an iron homeostasis protein, has important functions in transition and storage of toxic metal ions. In this study, the full-length cDNA of ferritin was isolated from Dendrorhynchus zhejiangensis by cDNA library and RACE approaches.

Cytoprotective Effect of Ferritin H in Renal Ischemia Reperfusion Injury. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2015
Oxidative stress is a major contributor to kidney injury following ischemia reperfusion. Ferritin, a highly conserved iron-binding protein, is a key protein in the maintenance of cellular iron homeostasis and protection from oxidative stress.

Ferritin in the fungus Phycomyces [PDF]

open access: yes, 1971
The iron-protein ferritin has been purified from mycelium, sporangiophores, and spores of the fungus Phycomyces blakesleeanus. It has a protein-to-iron ratio of 5, a sedimentation coefficient of 55S, a buoyant density in CsCl of 1.82 g/cm3, and the ...

Ferritin for the clinician [PDF]

open access: yesBlood Reviews, 2009
Ferritin, a major iron storage protein, is essential to iron homeostasis and is involved in a wide range of physiologic and pathologic processes. In clinical medicine, ferritin is predominantly utilized as a serum marker of total body iron stores. In cases of iron deficiency and overload, serum ferritin serves a critical role in both diagnosis and ...

Clinical Characteristics and Efficacy of Iron Treatment for Restless Legs Syndrome Patients with Very Low Ferritin Levels [PDF]

open access: yesSleep Medicine Research, 2018
Restless legs syndrome (RLS) is associated with dopaminergic dysfunction, and iron deficiency, manifesting as low ferritin. However, ferritin levels do not correlate well with demographic data.
