Evaluation of Urine Ferritin Concentration as a Non-Invasive Test for Iron Status of Preterm Neonates [PDF]

Ain Shams Medical Journal
Background: Preterm neonates are at high risk of iron deficiency due to low iron store at birth. Recent research has shown a link between low iron stores in neonates and poor neurocognitive outcome.

Transferrin receptor 1‐mediated iron uptake supports thermogenic activation in human cervical‐derived adipocytes

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
In this study, we found that human cervical‐derived adipocytes maintain intracellular iron level by regulating the expression of iron transport‐related proteins during adrenergic stimulation. Melanotransferrin is predicted to interact with transferrin receptor 1 based on in silico analysis.
