Soluble transferrin receptors in anaemia of pregnancy
Journal of Obstetrics and Gynaecology, 2001 Anaemia is one of the most common disorders in pregnancy. The most common cause is iron deficiency. Iron deficiency anaemia is relatively easy to diagnose using a serum ferritin of

Tohoku Journal of Experimental Medicine, 2004 We aimed to evaluate the diagnostic values of soluble transferrin receptor (sTfR) concentration, transferrin-ferritin index (soluble transferrin receptor concentration/log ferritin), ferritin levels and other related parameters in geriatric patients with anemia of chronic disease (ACD) and iron deficiency (IDA).

Zinc Supplementation Combats Tuberculosis by Reverting Back to Normal Compartmentalized State of Iron and Hence Increasing Blood Hemoglobin Concentration [PDF]
Indian Journal of Medical Biochemistry, 2023 Aim and background: To acquire iron (Fe), Mycobacterium tuberculosis (Mtb) expresses high-affinity Fe+3-specific siderophores for scavenging Fe from host insoluble and protein-bound iron-like transferrin, lactoferrin, ferritin, and hemoglobin−haptoglobin.

Factors associated with iron deficiency in heart failure
Кардиоваскулярная терапия и профилактика, 2023 Aim. To establish the factors associated with iron deficiency (ID) in pa- tients with heart failure (HF).Material and methods. We examined 294 patients with NYHA class II-IV HF as follows: 213 — with ID, 81 — without ID. All patients underwent a clinical

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.

Origin of a soluble truncated transferrin receptor [PDF]
Blood, 1993 Abstract It has recently become evident that elevation of reticulocytes in the circulation of several species, including humans, leads to the formation of a noncellular transferrin receptor (TFR). In humans, the majority of the released receptor is in truncated form (Shih et al: J Biol Chem 265:19077, 1990). In other species (sheep, rat,

Foods, 2022 Iron overload is often associated with type 2 diabetes (T2D), indicating that hepcidin, the master regulator of iron homeostasis, might be involved in diabetes pathogenesis. Alcohol consumption may also result in increased body iron stores.

Immunological study of complex formation between soluble transferrin receptor and transferrin [PDF]
American Journal of Hematology, 2005 Transferrin receptor (TfR) is a dimeric transmembrane protein that provides iron transport from plasma to cells by binding and internalization of iron-loaded transferrin (Tf). Soluble transferrin receptor (sTfR) is an extracellular part of the TfR molecule that is truncated from the cell surface and released into the blood stream.
