Transferrin receptors

Experimental and Molecular Medicine
The transferrin receptor (TfR) is one of the key proteins involved in cellular iron uptake. TfR-mediated endocytosis of transferrin-bound iron is the major pathway for iron acquisition by most cells in the body.

Heterotypic interactions between transferrin receptor and transferrin receptor 2 [PDF]

Blood, 2003
Cellular iron uptake in most tissues occurs via endocytosis of diferric transferrin (Tf) bound to the transferrin receptor (TfR). Recently, a second transferrin receptor, transferrin receptor 2 (TfR2), has been identified and shown to play a critical role in iron metabolism.

Transferrin Receptors in Erythropoiesis [PDF]

International Journal of Molecular Sciences, 2020
Erythropoiesis is a highly dynamic process giving rise to red blood cells from hematopoietic stem cells present in the bone marrow. Red blood cells transport oxygen to tissues thanks to the hemoglobin comprised of α- and β-globin chains and of iron-containing hemes.

Transferrin receptor expression and the regulation of placental iron uptake [PDF]

, 1991
Placental transferrin receptors, located at the apical side of syncytiotrophoblast, mediate placental iron uptake. Regulation of transferrin receptors on the fetal-maternal exchange area could be a major determinant in the regulation of trans-placental ...

Anticancer drug delivery with transferrin targeted polymeric chitosan vesicles [PDF]

, 2004
The study reports the initial biological evaluation of targeted polymeric glycol chitosan vesicles as carrier systems for doxorubicin (Dox). Transferrin (Tf) was covalently bound to the Dox-loaded palmitoylated glycol chitosan (GCP) vesicles using ...

Insights from targeting transferrin receptors to develop vaccines for pathogens of humans and food production animals

Frontiers in Cellular and Infection Microbiology, 2023
While developing vaccines targeting surface transferrin receptor proteins in Gram-negative pathogens of humans and food production animals, the common features derived from their evolutionary origins has provided us with insights on how improvements ...

Investigation into the Antigenic Properties and Contributions to Growth in Blood of the Meningococcal Haemoglobin Receptors, HpuAB and HmbR. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2015
Acquisition of iron from host complexes is mediated by four surface-located receptors of Neisseria meningitidis. The HmbR protein and heterodimeric HpuAB complex bind to haemoglobin whilst TbpBA and LbpBA bind iron-loaded transferrin and lactoferrin ...

Differences in the signaling pathways of α1A- and α1B-adrenoceptors are related to different endosomal targeting [PDF]

, 2013
Aims: To compare the constitutive and agonist-dependent endosomal trafficking of α1A- and α1B-adrenoceptors (ARs) and to establish if the internalization pattern determines the signaling pathways of each subtype.

Human amniotic fluid glycoproteins expressing sialyl Lewis carbohydrate antigens stimulate progesterone production in human trophoblasts in vitro [PDF]

, 2004
Background: Progesterone is thought to mediate immune modulator effects by regulating uterine responsiveness. The aim of the study was to clarify the effect of transferrin and glycodelin A (former name PP14) as sialyl Lewis X-expressing glycoproteins on ...
