Nature's Nanotech Warriors: The Role of Metalloproteins and Protein Cages for Environmental Remediation

open access: yesAdvanced Sustainable Systems, Volume 10, Issue 6, June 2026.
Cartoon representation of five major classes of metalloproteins and their brief mechanisms of bioremediation. The five classes include metallothioneins, metal‐precipitating enzymes, P.‐type ATPases, protein cages, and synthetic metalloproteins (de novo‐designed proteins/peptides for selective adsorption). These natural and engineered protein structures

RETRACTED: The Role of Ubiquitination in Hepcidin-Independent and Hepcidin-Dependent Degradation of Ferroportin

open access: yesCell Metabolism, 2011
The iron exporter ferroportin (Fpn) is essential to transfer iron from cells to plasma. Systemic iron homeostasis in vertebrates is regulated by the hepcidin-mediated internalization of Fpn. Here, we demonstrate a second route for Fpn internalization; when cytosolic iron levels are low, Fpn is internalized in a hepcidin-independent manner dependent ...

Homozygous TFR2 (c.2093_2096del) Mutation in an Asymptomatic Patient With Type 3 Hereditary Hemochromatosis, First Report From Saudi Arabia

open access: yesClinical Case Reports, Volume 14, Issue 6, June 2026.
ABSTRACT Hereditary hemochromatosis (HH) is an inherited disorder of iron metabolism characterized by progressive iron accumulation in multiple organs. While most cases are associated with HFE mutations, non‐HFE variants such as mutations in the transferrin receptor‐2 (TFR2) gene represent rare causes of iron overload.

Hepcidin Expression in Psoriasis Patients

open access: yesIndian Journal of Dermatology, 2014
Background: Iron is an essential nutrient for mammals. Accelerated loss of nutrients through hyperproliferation and desquamation from the skin in psoriasis is known. Hepcidin is an important and recently discovered regulator of iron homeostasis.

Gene expression profiles of white bass (Morone chrysops) and hybrid striped bass (M. chrysops x M. saxatilis) gill tissue following Flavobacterium covae infection

open access: yesComparative Immunology Reports
Columnaris disease is a prevalent disease in freshwater environments caused by the ubiquitous aquatic pathogen Flavobacterium species. Adhesion to the external mucosal surfaces of fishes is the initial stage of infection, and the gills specifically have ...

Diagnostic Accuracy of Inflammatory Biomarkers in Differentiating Acute Appendicitis From Other Acute Abdomen and Predicting Disease Severity: A Prospective Comparative Cross‐Sectional Study

open access: yesHealth Science Reports, Volume 9, Issue 6, June 2026.
ABSTRACT Introduction Acute appendicitis (AA) is one of the most common clinical conditions for emergency surgery. The diagnosis of acute appendicitis remains challenging for surgeons. Researchers are still looking for a parameter that is less expensive and easily available for diagnosis.

Hepcidin and Cytokines in Anaemia

open access: yesHematology, 2004
Hepcidin is a cytokine-induced antibacterial protein which is produced in the liver, circulates in the blood, and is excreted in the urine. It is a major regulator of iron balance in the intestinal mucosa, and appears to have a significant role in the pathogenesis of haemochromatosis and related disorders.

Hepcidin is decreased in TFR2 hemochromatosis

open access: yesBlood, 2005
Abstract The hepatic peptide hepcidin is the key regulator of iron metabolism in mammals. Recent evidence indicates that certain forms of hereditary hemochromatosis are caused by hepcidin deficiency. Juvenile hemochromatosis is associated with hepcidin or hemojuvelin mutations, and these patients have low or absent urinary hepcidin ...

Relationship of Genetic Variability (HIF‐1Α (rs11549465; P582S), TMPRSS6 (rs855791; V736A) and ABO (rs651007) and Iron Deficiency in Repeated Blood Donors in 2023: A Cross‐Sectional Study Towards Individualized Health Management

open access: yesHealth Science Reports, Volume 9, Issue 6, June 2026.
ABSTRACT Background and Aims Frequent blood donation can significantly increase the risk of iron deficiency, influenced by demographic, dietary, environmental, and genetic factors. This study aims to evaluate the association between iron deficiency and specific genetic variations (HIF‐1α (rs11549465; P582S), TMPRSS6 (rs855791; V736A), and ABO (rs651007)

Single‐Agent Selinexor Versus Physician's Choice in Previously Treated Myelofibrosis: Results From the Phase 2 XPORT‐035 Study

open access: yeseJHaem, Volume 7, Issue 3, June 2026.
ABSTRACT Background Janus kinase inhibitors (JAKis), the current standard of care for myelofibrosis (MF), provide clinical benefit, but responses are frequently incomplete, non‐durable, and associated with cytopenias, underscoring the need for therapies with novel mechanisms of action.
