THE ROLE OF SERUM TRANSFERRIN RECEPTORS MEASUREMENT
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.

Characterization of Tfrc-mutant mice with microcytic phenotypes
: To identify novel regulators of erythropoiesis, we performed independent forward genetic screens using the chemical mutagen ENU in mice. Among progeny displaying microcytic red-cell phenotypes, 7 independent mouse strains harboring mutations within the

Mechanism of active targeting in solid tumors with transferrin-containing gold nanoparticles [PDF]
PEGylated gold nanoparticles are decorated with various amounts of human transferrin (Tf) to give a series of Tf-targeted particles with near-constant size and electrokinetic potential.

Intrinsically disordered protein‐inspired nanovectors (IDP‐NVs) form stable nanocoacervates (NCs) with diverse biomacromolecules. In situ conformational changes confer stability and adaptability to NCs under dynamically changing physiological conditions.

Disruption of HOX activity leads to cell death that can be enhanced by the interference of iron uptake in malignant B cells. [PDF]
The HOX genes encode a family of transcription factors that are dysregulated in several malignancies and have been implicated in oncogenesis and cancer cell survival.

Transferrin‐Directed Internalization and Cycling of Transferrin Receptor 2 [PDF]
Transferrin receptor 2 (TfR2) is a homologue of transferrin receptor 1 (TfR1) but has distinct functions from TfR1 in iron homeostasis. In keeping with its proposed role in iron sensing, previous studies showed that TfR2 has a short half‐life and that holo‐Tf stabilizes TfR2 by redirecting it from a degradative pathway to a recycling pathway.

Kelvin Probe Force Microscopy in Bionanotechnology: Current Advances and Future Perspectives
Kelvin probe force microscopy (KPFM) enables the nanoscale mapping of electrostatic surface potentials. While widely applied in materials science, its use in biological systems remains emerging. This review presents recent advances in KPFM applied to biological samples and provides a critical perspective on current limitations and future directions for

HFE and transferrin directly compete for transferrin receptor in solution and at the cell surface [PDF]
Transferrin receptor (TfR) is a dimeric cell surface protein that binds both the serum iron transport protein transferrin (Fe-Tf) and HFE, the protein mutated in patients with the iron overload disorder hereditary hemochromatosis.

Mutations in human dynamin block an intermediate stage in coated vesicle formation [PDF]
The role of human dynamin in receptor-mediated endocytosis was investigated by transient expression of GTP-binding domain mutants in mammalian cells. Using assays which detect intermediates in coated vesicle formation, the dynamin mutants were found to ...
