Ferrous Ion Alleviates Lipid Deposition and Inflammatory Responses Caused by a High Cottonseed Meal Diet by Modulating Hepatic Iron Transport Homeostasis and Controlling Ferroptosis in Juvenile Ctenopharyngodon idellus

Antioxidants, 2023
To investigate the mechanisms through which ferrous ion (Fe2+) addition improves the utilization of a cottonseed meal (CSM) diet, two experimental diets with equal nitrogen and energy content (low-cottonseed meal (LCM) and high-cottonseed meal (HCM ...

Cation/Proton Antiporter Genes in Tomato: Genomic Characterization, Expression Profiling, and Co-Localization with Salt Stress-Related QTLs

Agronomy, 2022
The cation/proton antiporter (CPA) family represents a class of transmembrane transporter proteins that play a crucial role in plants during high salinity stress by maintaining the cell’s ionic balance and pH homeostasis.

ZIP14 and DMT1 in the liver, pancreas, and heart are differentially regulated by iron deficiency and overload: implications for tissue iron uptake in iron-related disorders

Haematologica, 2013
The liver, pancreas, and heart are particularly susceptible to iron-related disorders. These tissues take up plasma iron from transferrin or non-transferrin-bound iron, which appears during iron overload.

Choroid plexus transport: gene deletion studies

Fluids and Barriers of the CNS, 2011
This review examines the use of transporter knockout (KO) animals to evaluate transporter function at the choroid plexus (the blood-CSF barrier; BCSFB). Compared to the blood-brain barrier, there have been few such studies on choroid plexus (CP) function.

A Drosophila screen identifies NKCC1 as a modifier of NGLY1 deficiency

eLife, 2020
N-Glycanase 1 (NGLY1) is a cytoplasmic deglycosylating enzyme. Loss-of-function mutations in the NGLY1 gene cause NGLY1 deficiency, which is characterized by developmental delay, seizures, and a lack of sweat and tears.

Dysregulated Erythroid Mg2+ Efflux in Type 2 Diabetes

Frontiers in Cell and Developmental Biology, 2022
Hyperglycemia is associated with decreased Mg2+ content in red blood cells (RBC), but mechanisms remain unclear. We characterized the regulation of Mg2+ efflux by glucose in ex vivo human RBC.

Ion accumulation and expression of ion homeostasis-related genes associated with halophilism, NaCl-promoted growth in a halophyte Mesembryanthemum crystallinum L.

Plant Production Science, 2020
A halophyte, the common ice plant (Mesembryanthemum crystallinum L.), shows the maximal growth under salinity, in which almost all crops die. The NaCl-stimulated growth, which is referred to as halophilism, is an important trait for adaptation to ...

Phosphorylation regulation of nitrogen, phosphorus, and potassium uptake systems in plants

Crop Journal, 2023
The uptake of ammonium, nitrate, phosphorus, and potassium ions by roots is mediated by specific ion transporter or channel proteins, and protein phosphorylation regulation events occurring on these proteins and their regulators determine their ultimate ...

Anion transport and GABA signaling

Frontiers in Cellular Neuroscience, 2013
Whereas activation of GABAA receptors by GABA usually results in a hyperpolarizing influx of chloride into the neuron, the reversed chloride driving force in the immature nervous system results in a depolarizing efflux of chloride.

A Missing Link in Radial Ion Transport: Ion Transporters in the Endodermis

Frontiers in Plant Science, 2019
In higher plants, roots have important functions, such as the acquisition of water and ions, as well as transportation into the aerial parts of the plant via the xylem vessels.
