Soluble transferrin receptor and immature reticulocytes are not useful for distinguishing iron-deficiency anemia from heterozygous beta-thalassemia

São Paulo Medical Journal
Iron deficiency and heterozygous beta-thalassemia are important causes of hypochromic-microcytic anemia. Two laboratory parameters are suggested for the differentiation of such anemia.

THE ROLE OF SERUM TRANSFERRIN RECEPTORS MEASUREMENT [PDF]

Zdravniški Vestnik, 2004
Background. The transferrin receptors are transmembrane proteins. They have a critical role in iron metabolism by controlling the flow of transferrin iron into body cells.

Chelator-facilitated removal of iron from transferrin: Relevance to combined chelation therapy [PDF]

, 2008
Current iron chelation therapy consists primarily of DFO (desferrioxamine), which has to be administered via intravenous infusion, together with deferiprone and deferasirox, which are orally-active chelators.

Delivery of drugs, proteins and genes into cells using transferrin as a ligand for receptor-mediated endocytosis [PDF]

, 1994
Transferrin, an iron-transporting serum glycoprotein, is efficiently taken up into cells by the process of receptor-mediated endocytosis. Transferrin receptors are found on the surface of most proliferating cells, in elevated numbers on erythroblasts and

Gene transfer to respiratory epithelial cells via the receptor-mediated endocytosis pathway [PDF]

, 1992
Gene-based therapies for a variety of inherited and acquired pulmonary diseases will require the development of vectors capable of safe and efficient transfer of DNA to the respiratory epithelium.

The significance of soluble transferrin receptors in diagnosing iron deficiency anemia

Romanian Journal of Laboratory Medicine, 2015
Introduction. In recent years, determination of soluble transferrin receptor levels has been emerging as a test that can reliably indicate iron deficiency in various states, and that is non-invasive and easy to use.
