Analytical and Clinical Implications of Soluble Transferrin Receptors in Serum [PDF]
In this study the analytical performances of two recently introduced assays for soluble transferrin receptors in serum were tested. The Ramco transferrin assay was compared with the Eurogenetics assay. In a small clinical study serum samples from patients with anaemia of chronic disease, iron deficiency and myelodysplastic syndrome were analysed, as ...

Soluble transferrin receptor in the study of fetal erythropoietic activity [PDF]
In order to evaluate fetal erythropoiesis we measured red blood cells, hemoglobin, hematocrit, serum transferrin receptor (sTfR), and iron status parameters in fetuses undergoing percutaneous umbilical blood sampling, and in normal newborns at term. We found high levels of sTfR in fetuses and newborns as compared with normal adults (3,149 +/- 181 vs. 1,

Iron in plasma is carried by transferrin delivered to cells through the interaction with a specific membrane receptor, namelytransferrin receptor. The soluble transferrin receptor (sTfR) is a transferrin receptor monomer which lost its first 100 amino acids, andcirculates in the form of transferrin and its receptor complex.

Thalassemia associates anemia and iron overload, two opposite stimuli regulating hepcidin gene expression. We characterized hepatic hepcidin expression in 10 thalassemia major and 13 thalassemia intermedia patients. Hepcidin mRNA levels were decreased in

Background: Iron deficiency anaemia (IDA) is the most frequent form of anaemia in human population. For diagnosing IDA usually conventional laboratory tests such as serum iron, serum ferritin and transferrin saturation are used.

UiO‐66(Zr) metal–organic frameworks are chemically stable, biocompatible, and highly tunable nanomaterials. Their modular structure enables controlled drug delivery, multimodal bioimaging, and light‐activated photodynamic therapy, supporting integrated diagnostic and therapeutic (theranostic) applications in cancer and biomedical research.

Advanced Materials for Biologics Delivery to Brain Tumors
Material innovation is central to unlocking the therapeutic potential of biologics against many central nervous system diseases, including brain cancer. By engineering carriers with controlled transport, targeting, and release properties, advanced materials can overcome the blood–brain barrier and tumor microenvironment, improving the delivery of ...

Labile plasma iron levels predict survival in patients with lower-risk myelodysplastic syndromes
Red blood cell transfusions remain one of the cornerstones in supportive care of lower-risk patients with myelodysplastic syndromes. We hypothesized that patients develop oxidant-mediated tissue injury through the formation of toxic iron species, caused ...
