Autophagosome marker, LC3, is released extracellularly via several distinct pathways
This study establishes a novel HiBiT‐tagging system for ultrasensitive detection of LC3, revealing multiple pathways for its extracellular secretion. It demonstrates that LC3 is released via both autophagy‐dependent and ‐independent mechanisms, including a novel route for nonlipidated LC3‐I.

Association between serum ferritin levels and risk of the metabolic syndrome in Chinese adults: a population study. [PDF]
Ferritin is a ubiquitous intracellular protein that can store and release iron and act as a buffer against iron deficiency and iron overload. Ferritin is widely used as a clinical biomarker to evaluate iron status. Increased serum ferritin concentrations

Comparison of serum levels of hepcidin and pro-hepcidin in hemodialysis patients and healthy subjects [PDF]
Hepcidin prevents absorption of iron from the intestine and inhibits release of iron from macrophages and hepatocytes. For this reason, it seems that high levels of hepcidin are a predisposing factor for anemia in chronic inflammatory conditions such as ...

Plasma Glial Fibrillary Acidic Protein Correlates With Brain Metal Burden in Wilson's Disease
ABSTRACT Objective Neuroinflammation driven by extracellular copper contributes to neuronal damage in Wilson's disease (WD). This study investigated the relationship between brain metal burden and peripheral neuroinflammation markers in WD. Methods We conducted a cross‐sectional study involving 89 participants, including patients with WD (n = 63 ...
