The fate of a designed protein corona on nanoparticles in vitro and in vivo
A variety of monodisperse superparamagnetic iron oxide particles (SPIOs) was designed in which the surface was modified by PEGylation with mono- or bifunctional poly(ethylene oxide)amines (PEG).

Transferrin as a source of iron for Campylobacter rectus
Background and Objective: Campylobacter rectus is considered as one of the bacterial species of etiological importance in periodontitis. Iron-containing proteins such as transferrin are found in periodontal sites and may serve as a source of iron for ...

Controversial Role of Transferrin in the Transport of Ruthenium Anticancer Drugs
Ruthenium complexes are at the forefront of developments in metal-based anticancer drugs, but many questions remain open regarding their reactivity in biological media, including the role of transferrin (Tf) in their transport and cellular uptake. A well-

Expression and purification of functional recombinant meningococcal transferrin-binding protein A [PDF]
Pathogenic bacteria of the genus Neisseria have a siderophore-independent iron-uptake system reliant on a direct interaction between the bacterial cell and human transferrin (hTf), a serum protein. In the meningococcus, this uptake system is dependent on two surface-exposed, transferrin-binding proteins (Tbps), TbpA and TbpB.

Isolation of complexes formed between insulin-like growth factor-binding protein-3 and transferrin from the human serum [PDF]
Insulin-like growth factors (IGFs) play an important role in the regulation of cell growth, differentiation and metabolism. The amount of free, biologically active IGFs is regulated by the IGF-binding proteins (IGFBPs).

Homology modelling of transferrin-binding protein A from Neisseria meningitidis [PDF]
Neisseria meningitidis, a causative agent of bacterial meningitis, obtains transferrin-bound iron by expressing two outer membrane located transferrin-binding proteins, TbpA and TbpB. TbpA is thought to be an integral outer membrane pore that facilitates iron uptake.

Transferrin-modified chitosan nanoparticles for targeted nose-to-brain delivery of proteins
Nose-to-brain delivery presents a promising alternative route compared to classical blood–brain barrier passage, especially for the delivery of high molecular weight drugs.

Cloning and expression of a transferrin-binding protein from Actinobacillus pleuropneumoniae [PDF]
An expression library was constructed from Actinobacillus pleuropneumoniae serotype 7. Escherichia coli transformants expressing recombinant proteins were identified by immunoscreening with porcine convalescent serum. One transformant expressing a 60-kDa protein (60K protein) in aggregated form was identified.
