Regulation of cell surface transferrin receptor-2 by iron-dependent cleavage and release of a soluble form

Haematologica, 2015
Transferrin receptor-2 is a transmembrane protein whose expression is restricted to hepatocytes and erythroid cells. Transferrin receptor-2 has a regulatory function in iron homeostasis, since its inactivation causes systemic iron overload.

Macrophage colony-stimulating factor differentially regulates low density lipoprotein and transferrin receptors

Journal of Lipid Research, 2004
Endocytosis mediated by both LDL receptors (LDLRs) and transferrin receptors (TfRs) occurs in clathrin-coated pits and requires specific tyrosine-based internalization sequences located in the cytoplasmic domain of these receptors.

Identification of Transferrin Receptor 1 (TfR1) Overexpressed in Lung Cancer Cells, and Internalization of Magnetic Au-CoFe₂O₄ Core-Shell Nanoparticles Functionalized with Its Ligand in a Cellular Model of Small Cell Lung Cancer (SCLC)

Pharmaceutics, 2022
Lung cancer is, currently, one of the main malignancies causing deaths worldwide. To date, early prognostic and diagnostic markers for small cell lung cancer (SCLC) have not been systematically and clearly identified, so most patients receive standard ...

Cell-Based, High-Content Screen for Receptor Internalization, Recycling and Intracellular Trafficking

BioTechniques, 2000
A variety of physiologically important receptors are internalized and then recycled back to the plasma membrane by the endocytic recycling compartment. These include the transferrin receptor and many G-protein coupled receptors (GPCRs).

Single-Molecule Imaging of Membrane Proteins on Vascular Endothelial Cells

Journal of Lipid and Atherosclerosis, 2023
Transporting substances such as gases, nutrients, waste, and cells is the primary function of blood vessels. Vascular cells use membrane proteins to perform crucial endothelial functions, including molecular transport, immune cell infiltration, and ...

Two peptides targeting endothelial receptors are internalized into murine brain endothelial cells.

PLoS ONE, 2021
The blood-brain barrier (BBB) is one of the main obstacles for therapies targeting brain diseases. Most macromolecules fail to pass the tight BBB, formed by brain endothelial cells interlinked by tight junctions.

Two Interconvertible Folds Modulate the Activity of a DNA Aptamer Against Transferrin Receptor

Molecular Therapy: Nucleic Acids, 2014
Thanks to their ability to recognize biomolecular targets with high affinity and specificity, nucleic acid aptamers are increasingly investigated as diagnostic and therapeutic tools, particularly when their targets are cell-surface receptors.

Contributions of HFE polymorphisms to brain and blood iron load, and their links to cognitive and motor function in healthy adults

Neuropsychopharmacology Reports, 2021
Background Brain iron overload is linked to brain deterioration, and cognitive and motor impairment in neurodegenerative disorders and normal aging. Mutations in the HFE gene are associated with iron dyshomeostasis and are risk factors for peripheral ...

Transferrin receptor 1‐mediated iron uptake supports thermogenic activation in human cervical‐derived adipocytes

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
In this study, we found that human cervical‐derived adipocytes maintain intracellular iron level by regulating the expression of iron transport‐related proteins during adrenergic stimulation. Melanotransferrin is predicted to interact with transferrin receptor 1 based on in silico analysis.
