MTOR controls transferrin uptake by regulation of the number of transferrin receptors per vesicle and not endocytosis or recycling rates

open access: yes, 2011
Effect of rapamycin on the time-course of fluorescent transferrin endocytosis (left) and recycling (right). Means ± standard error of the mean (SEM; = 4 replicates). Lack of effect of rapamycin on the rate constants for endocytosis and recycling.

Lilrb4a Suppression Reprograms Microglia to Mitigate APOE4‐Associated Amyloid Plaques and Cerebral Amyloid Angiopathy in Association With a PPAR‐Linked Pro‐Clearance State

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Targeting Lilrb4a in Apolipoprotein E4 (APOE4)‐associated Alzheimer's disease (AD) reprograms microglia toward a beneficial, phagocytic state. Genetic deletion or antisense inhibition of Lilrb4a suppresses p‐SHP2/NF‐κB/STAT1 signaling, restores PPAR‐linked lipid and energy metabolism, and reduces amyloid plaque burden and cerebral amyloid angiopathy ...

Mysteries of the Transferrin-Transferrin Receptor 1 Interaction Uncovered [PDF]

open access: yesCell, 2004
How does the iron (Fe) binding protein, transferrin (Tf), bind to the transferrin receptor 1 (TfR1) to donate Fe to cells? In this issue of Cell, Cheng et al., describe the molecular structure of the human TfR1-Tf complex, This atomic model shows that Tf binds laterally to the TfR1 dimer and extends into the gap between the bottom of the receptor ...

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 ...

ACLY‐Driven Metabolic Reprogramming Promotes Histone Acetylation and Inflammation‐Associated Fibrosis in Chronic Kidney Disease

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
This study reveals a citrate–ACLY–H3K27ac metabolic–epigenetic axis driving inflammatory gene activation and kidney fibrosis, highlighting ACLY inhibition as a potential therapeutic strategy for chronic kidney disease (CKD). ABSTRACT The mechanisms by which metabolic stress drives epigenetic dysregulation and fibrosis in chronic kidney disease (CKD ...

Special status of iron transfer proteins in the serum of breast cancer patients

open access: yesDiscover Oncology
Cancer cells have a greater requirement for iron because of their continuous and rapid proliferation. To do that, iron homeostasis is altered in cancer cells to meet this excessive demand.

Dynamic Self‐Clickable Decellularized Matrix Hydrogels for Regulating Vascularity and Enhancing Muscle Regeneration

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Dynamic decellularized hydrogels are prepared using bovine decellularized small intestine submucosa (SIS) norbornene (dSIS‐NB). Bovine dSIS contained significant amounts of disulfide‐rich fibrillin‐I, enabling ‘self‐clickable’ thiol‐norbornene gelation and spatiotemporal tuning of hydrogel physicochemical properties.

A Plug‐and‐Play Platform for Customizing Multivalent Degraders and Degrader‐Drug Conjugates

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Membrane proteins remain challenging targets for conventional TPD approaches. Here, the authors develop UPTAB, a modular platform leveraging ultrahigh‐affinity orthogonal Im/CL protein pairs for lysosomal degradation of membrane proteins. Mono‐targeted (Type‐I), dual‐targeted (Type‐II), and tri‐targeted (Type‐III) UPTABs enable simultaneous degradation

Effects of overexpression of the transferrin receptor on the rates of transferrin recycling and uptake of non-transferrin-bound iron

open access: yes
The possibilities that the recycling of the transferrin receptor is a rate-limiting step in the efflux of endocytosed transferrin, and that the receptor functions as a trans-membrane Fe transporter were investigated in untransfected Ltk- cells and in ...

Binding of Transferrin

open access: yes, 2013
Transferrin (purple rhombus) binds two ferric iron atoms (orange squares) and circulates in the bloodstream until it comes into contact with transferrin receptors, which pair together to form dimers (red torpedo shapes) on the plasma membrane surface of ...
