Iron is very important in many biological processes and the ferritin protein family has evolved to store iron and to maintain cellular iron homeostasis. The deletion of the coding gene for the H subunit of ferritin leads to early embryonic death in mice and mutations in the gene for the L subunits in humans has been observed in neurodegenerative ...

Characterization of ferritin and ferritin-binding proteins in canine serum
Biometals, 2000Ferritin and ferritin-binding proteins in canine serum were characterized. A certain percentage of ferritin in canine serum, but no tissue ferritin, was precipitated by centrifugation at 16,000 x g for 30 min. The precipitated ferritin was found to contain two subunits corresponding to the H and L subunits of canine liver ferritin by immunoblotting ...

Nuclear ferritin: A new role for ferritin in cell biology
Biochimica et Biophysica Acta (BBA) - General Subjects, 2010Ferritin has been traditionally considered a cytoplasmic iron storage protein. However, several studies over the last two decades have reported the nuclear localization of ferritin, specifically H-ferritin, in developing neurons, hepatocytes, corneal epithelial cells, and some cancer cells.

Ferritin—a mediator of apoptosis?
Journal of Cellular Physiology, 2007AbstractPreviously we have demonstrated an apoptosis inducing activity for a rat hepatocyte conditioned medium (CM) presumably mediated by acidic isoferritins. Here, we present support for this assumption since isoferritins purified from different rat hepatocyte CM significantly enhanced the frequency of apoptotic cells in primary rat hepatocytes, an ...

Serum ferritin: Does it differ from tissue ferritin?
Journal of Gastroenterology and Hepatology, 1996ABSTRACTSerum ferritin isolated from the horse was structurally compared with horse spleen ferritin and was found to differ markedly in molecular weight, iron content, carbohydrate, subunit size and amino acid sequence. The results are summarized and initial results obtained with candidate clones of pieces of two serum ferritin subunits are ...

Enzyme Encapsulation by a Ferritin Cage.
Angewandte Chemie, 2017Ferritins, conserved across all kingdoms of life, are protein nanocages that evolved to mineralize iron. The last several decades have shown that these cages have considerable technological and medical potential owing to their stability and tolerance to ...

Characterization of the binding of ferritin to the rat liver ferritin receptor
Biochimica et Biophysica Acta (BBA) - General Subjects, 1985The binding characteristics and specificity of the rat hepatic ferritin receptor were investigated using ferritins prepared from rat liver, heart, spleen, kidney and serum, human liver and serum, guinea pig liver and horse spleen as well as ferritins enriched with respect to either H- or L-type subunit composition, prepared by chromatofocusing of rat ...
