Increased iron deficiency and iron deficiency anemia in children with zinc deficiency

The Eurasian Journal of Medicine, 2017
Abstract   Objective: The aim of the present study is to determine the presence of iron (Fe) deficiency and Fe deficiency anemia in children with zinc (Zn) deficiency.   Materials and Methods: This retrospective study comprised 560 patients aged 6 months to 16 years in whom Zn levels in hair samples were measured concurrently with serum ...

Emerging experimental and computational methods for studying redox‐regulated structural transitions

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Redox reactions can reshape proteins and alter how they behave in cells, with important consequences for health and disease. This review explores emerging experimental and computational approaches for discovering these redox‐sensitive protein switches, revealing their structural effects, and predicting their behavior, opening new opportunities to ...

Functional comparison of EncB and EncC cargo proteins in iron storage within the Myxococcus xanthus encapsulin

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Encapsulins are protein nanocompartments that play an important role in iron storage. In the Myxococcus xanthus encapsulin system, two cargo proteins called EncB and EncC contribute to iron mineralization. Here, we show that EncB and EncC generate iron‐containing minerals with distinct chemical compositions, suggesting that the composition of stored ...

Hidden hunger: Approaches to tackling micronutrient deficiencies

, 2021
AROUND THE WORLD, more than 2 billion people are thought to be affected by an often invisible form of malnutrition: micronutrient malnutrition, commonly known as hidden hunger.1 Vitamin and mineral deficiencies—at least in mild to moderate forms—may not ...

Evaluation of mineral and near-infrared forecasting of wheat yield varieties using spectrophotometric techniques [PDF]

Global Journal of Environmental Science and Management
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVE: Iron, an essential micronutrient, significantly contributes to growth, immune health, and cognitive development in human health. Inadequate dietary iron intake leads to iron deficiency anemia, affecting nearly 1.6 billion people,

L‐aspartate oxidase provides new insights into fumarate reduction in anaerobic darkness in Synechocystis sp. PCC6803

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Synechocystis strains deficient in succinate dehydrogenase (SDH) secrete more succinate than the WT under dark anaerobic conditions, supporting that SDH then primarily acts as SDH, not as a fumarate reductase. L‐aspartate oxidase (Laspo) from Synechocystis is functional under anaerobic conditions, reducing fumarate to succinate.

The heterodimeric amino acid transporters (HAT) of the SLC7/SLC3 family: A structure−function relationships and relevance to human pathology

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Heterodimeric amino acid transporters consist of SLC7 and SLC3 family proteins arranged in a conserved structural organization. They regulate nutrient transport across cell membranes, supporting essential cellular functions. These transporters also contribute to xenobiotic/drug uptake and distribution.

HbA1c Levels in Controlled Diabetics with and without Iron Deficiency Anemia: A Tertiary Care Experience [PDF]

Journal of Basic Research in Medical Sciences
Introduction: Glycated hemoglobin (HbA1c) is widely used to assess long-term glycemic control in diabetic patients. However, non-glycemic factors such as iron deficiency anemia (IDA) may alter HbA1c levels, potentially affecting its accuracy.

Beyond Iron Deficiency: Unveiling the Prevalence of Folate and Vitamin B12 Deficiencies in Major Surgical Patients

Transfusion Medicine and Hemotherapy
Introduction: Preoperative anaemia is associated with increased morbidity and mortality in surgical patients. While iron deficiency is a well-recognized cause, the contribution of other nutritional deficiencies, such as folate and vitamin B12,
