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

open access: yesFEBS 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.

An Overlooked Hepcidin–Cadmium Connection

open access: yesInternational Journal of Molecular Sciences, 2022
Hepcidin (DTHFPICIFCCGCCHRSKCGMCCKT), an iron-regulatory hormone, is a 25-amino-acid peptide with four intramolecular disulfide bonds circulating in blood. Its hormonal activity is indirect and consists of marking ferroportin-1 (an iron exporter) for degradation.

Materials‐Guided Gene‐Ionizable Lipid Nanoparticles to Reverse Iron‐Associated Immune Resistance in Renal Cancer

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Iron overload is a common metabolic disturbance in cancer and contributes to poor outcomes in renal cell carcinoma (RCC), yet its effects on the tumour immune microenvironment remain unclear. Here we identify a previously unrecognized immunosuppressive axis in which iron overload downregulates the palmitoyltransferase ZDHHC12 in CD8+ T cells ...

Hepcidin and iron homeostasis

open access: yesBiochimica et Biophysica Acta (BBA) - Molecular Cell Research, 2012
Despite fluctuations in dietary iron intake and intermittent losses through bleeding, the plasma iron concentrations in humans remain stable at 10-30 μM. While most of the iron entering blood plasma comes from recycling, appropriate amount of iron is absorbed from the diet to compensate for losses and maintain nontoxic amounts in stores.

Iron regulation by hepcidin [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Clinical Investigation, 2013
Hepcidin is a key hormone that is involved in the control of iron homeostasis in the body. Physiologically, hepcidin is controlled by iron stores, inflammation, hypoxia, and erythropoiesis. The regulation of hepcidin expression by iron is a complex process that requires the coordination of multiple proteins, including hemojuvelin, bone morphogenetic ...

Correction of Ineffective Erythropoiesis and Normalization of Iron Homeostasis After Exagamglogene Autotemcel in Transfusion‐Dependent β‐Thalassemia

open access: yesAmerican Journal of Hematology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Exagamglogene autotemcel (exa‐cel) is a one‐time, ex vivo, CRISPR‐Cas9 gene edited cell therapy approved for patients with transfusion dependent β‐thalassemia (TDT) aged 12–35 years. In a Phase 3 study (CLIMB THAL‐111), exa‐cel treatment resulted in reactivation of fetal hemoglobin and increases in total hemoglobin, leading to transfusion ...

Identification of an iron–hepcidin complex [PDF]

open access: yesBiochemical Journal, 2008
Following its identification as a liver-expressed antimicrobial peptide, the hepcidin peptide was later shown to be a key player in iron homoeostasis. It is now proposed to be the ‘iron hormone’ which, by interacting with the iron transporter ferroportin, prevents further iron import into the circulatory system.

Therapeutic Silencing of Tmprss6 Reduces Iron‐Induced Inflammation and Prolongs Survival in MDS Mice

open access: yesAmerican Journal of Hematology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Myelodysplastic syndromes (MDS) are a heterogeneous group of clonal hematopoietic disorders characterized by ineffective hematopoiesis, cytopenias, and an increased risk of progression to acute myeloid leukemia (AML). Despite advances in supportive and targeted therapies, disease‐modifying interventions remain limited.

Improving nutritional assessment in pediatric anorexia nervosa: Clinical value of key serum biomarkers

open access: yesJournal of Pediatric Gastroenterology and Nutrition, EarlyView.
Abstract Objectives Reliable biochemical markers of starvation are needed to improve detection and monitoring of starvation in pediatric anorexia nervosa (AN), thus we explored new and revisited old potential serum biochemical markers. Methods In this prospective cohort study we included 65 pediatric patients with AN.

Iron, hepcidin, and the metal connection [PDF]

open access: yesFrontiers in Pharmacology, 2014
Identification of new players in iron metabolism, such as hepcidin, which regulates ferroportin and divalent metal transporter 1 expression, has improved our knowledge of iron metabolism and iron-related diseases. However, from both experimental data and clinical findings, "iron-related proteins" appear to also be involved in the metabolism of other ...
