Studying protein-protein interactions using peptide arrays [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
Screening of arrays and libraries of compounds is well-established as a high-throughput method for detecting and analyzing interactions in both biological and chemical systems. Arrays and libraries can be composed from various types of molecules, ranging

Time-course analysis of serum hepcidin, iron and cytokines in a C282Y homozygous patient with Schnitzler’s syndrome treated with IL-1 receptor antagonist

open access: yesHaematologica, 2009
It is currently unknown if the increase of the hepatic iron regulatory hormone hepcidin during inflammation in man depends on an intact HFE-protein. Here we describe the temporal relationship of serum hepcidin, serum iron and cytokines in a patient with ...

Correction of the iron overload defect in beta-2-microglobulin knockout mice by lactoferrin abolishes their increased susceptibility to tuberculosis. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2002
As a resident of early endosomal phagosomes, Mycobacterium tuberculosis is connected to the iron uptake system of the host macrophage. beta-2-microglobulin (beta2m) knockout (KO) mice are more susceptible to tuberculosis than wild-type mice, which is ...

Hemojuvelin N-terminal mutants reach the plasma membrane but do not activate the hepcidin response

open access: yesHaematologica, 2008
Background Hemojuvelin is a glycosylphosphatidylinositol-anchored protein, expressed in liver, skeletal muscle and heart. As a co-receptor of bone morphogenetic protein, membrane hemojuvelin positively modulates the iron regulator hepcidin.

Hemochromatosis-like disease in Brazilian tapirs (Tapirus terrestris) in Pará state, Brazil

open access: yes, 2022
We report two cases of hemochromatosis-like disease in captive Brazilian tapirs, Tapirus terrestris in Pará state, Brazil. Both animals presented symptoms of chronic hepatopathy associated with marked accumulation of hemosiderin.

Hereditary hemochromatosis: pathogenesis, symptoms, diagnosis and current treatment - literature review

open access: yesJournal of Education, Health and Sport
Introduction: Hereditary hemochromatosis is the most common genetic disorder in Northern Europe. It involves an overload of iron in the tissues due to a deficiency of the protein hepcidin.

The extrahepatic role of TFR2 in iron homeostasis

open access: yesFrontiers in Pharmacology, 2014
Transferrin receptor 2 (TFR2), a protein homologous to the cell iron importer transferrin receptor 1 (TFR1), is expressed in the liver and erythroid cells and is reported to bind diferric transferrin, although at lower affinity than TFR1.

Genetic disruption of NRF2 promotes the development of necroinflammation and liver fibrosis in a mouse model of HFE-hereditary hemochromatosis

open access: yesRedox Biology, 2017
Background and Aims: In hereditary hemochromatosis, iron deposition in the liver parenchyma may lead to fibrosis, cirrhosis and hepatocellular carcinoma.

CHAPTER 1.1. Disulfide Bonds in Protein Folding and Stability [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Disulfide bonds are unique among post-translational modifications, as they add covalent crosslinks to the polypeptide chain. Accordingly, they can exert pronounced effects on protein folding and stability. This is of particular importance for secreted or
