Ironing out Ferroportin [PDF]

open access: yesCell Metabolism, 2015
Maintaining physiologic iron concentrations in tissues is critical for metabolism and host defense. Iron absorption in the duodenum, recycling of iron from senescent erythrocytes, and iron mobilization from storage in macrophages and hepatocytes constitute the major iron flows into plasma for distribution to tissues, predominantly for erythropoiesis ...

Hepcidin-Induced Endocytosis of Ferroportin Is Dependent on Ferroportin Ubiquitination [PDF]

open access: yesCell Metabolism, 2012
Ferroportin exports iron into plasma from absorptive enterocytes, erythrophagocytosing macrophages, and hepatic stores. The hormone hepcidin controls cellular iron export and plasma iron concentrations by binding to ferroportin and causing its internalization and degradation. We explored the mechanism of hepcidin-induced endocytosis of ferroportin, the

Molecular Mechanism of Hepcidin-Mediated Ferroportin Internalization Requires Ferroportin Lysines, Not Tyrosines or JAK-STAT [PDF]

open access: yesCell Metabolism, 2012
Ferroportin is the primary means of cellular iron efflux and a key component of iron metabolism. Hepcidin regulates Fpn activity by inducing its internalization and degradation. The mechanism of internalization is reported to require JAK2 activation, phosphorylation of Fpn tyrosine residues 302 and 303, and initiation of transcription through STAT3 ...

Ferroportin-inhibitor salt: patent evaluation WO2018192973

Expert Opinion on Therapeutic Patents, 2021
Iron is a crucial element necessary for blood formation in the body and its normal growth. However, irregular metabolism of iron due to absence of an elimination mechanism may deposit excess iron in the organs (iron overload) leading to metabolic disorders.

Ferroportin-mediated iron transport: Expression and regulation

open access: yesBiochimica Et Biophysica Acta - Molecular Cell Research, 2012
The distinguishing feature between iron homeostasis in single versus multicellular organisms is the need for multicellular organisms to transfer iron from sites of absorption to sites of utilization and storage. Ferroportin is the only known iron exporter and ferroportin plays an essential role in the export of iron from cells to blood. Ferroportin can

Expression of ferroportin in hemochromatosis liver

Blood Cells, Molecules, and Diseases, 2003
Iron-regulated transporter protein 1 (IREG1 or ferroportin 1) is a transmembrane iron transporter that has been described in macrophages and hepatocytes. Ferroportin mutations have been described to result in hepatic iron overload in human pedigrees.

Functional consequences of ferroportin 1 mutations

Blood Cells, Molecules, and Diseases, 2005
The cellular iron exporter ferroportin 1 is expressed in both the duodenum and in cells of the mononuclear phagocyte system. Expression of ferroportin 1 protein on the cell surface is regulated by the interaction of ferroportin 1 with hepcidin. Hepcidin treatment of cells results in internalization and lysosomal degradation of cell surface ferroportin ...

Identification of Mutations in SLC40A1 That Affect Ferroportin Function and Phenotype of Human Ferroportin Iron Overload

Gastroenterology, 2011
Patients with ferroportin iron overload due to loss-of-function mutations in SLC40A1 have macrophage iron overload, hyperferritinemia, and normal transferrin saturation. In contrast, hepatocellular iron storage, hyperferritinemia, and increased saturation of transferrin are a distinct clinical presentation of ferroportin iron overload that results from

Nrf2 regulates ferroportin 1-mediated iron efflux and counteracts lipopolysaccharide-induced ferroportin 1 mRNA suppression in macrophages

Archives of Biochemistry and Biophysics, 2011
Iron is an essential element of hemoglobin, and efficient iron recycling from senescent erythrocytes by splenic macrophages is required for erythrocyte hemoglobin synthesis during erythropoiesis. Ferroportin 1 (Fpn1) is the sole iron exporter in mammals, and it also regulates iron reutilization.

Structural insights into ferroportin mediated iron transport

Biochemical Society Transactions, 2023
Iron is a vital trace element for almost all organisms, and maintaining iron homeostasis is critical for human health. In mammals, the only known gatekeeper between intestinally absorbed iron and circulatory blood plasma is the membrane transporter ferroportin (Fpn).
