DNA-binding transferrin conjugates as functional gene-delivery agents: synthesis by linkage of polylysine or ethidium homodimer to the transferrin carbohydrate moiety [PDF]

open access: yes, 1991
We have previously demonstrated that transferrin-polycation conjugates are efficient carrier molecules for the introduction of genes into eucariotic cells.

An RNA Alternative to Human Transferrin: A New Tool for Targeting Human Cells

open access: yesMolecular Therapy: Nucleic Acids, 2012
The transferrin receptor, CD71, is an attractive target for drug development because of its high expression on a number of cancer cell lines and the blood brain barrier. To generate serum-stabilized aptamers that recognize the human transferrin receptor,

Controversial Role of Transferrin in the Transport of Ruthenium Anticancer Drugs

open access: yesBiomolecules, 2022
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-

Vacuolar ATPase depletion contributes to dysregulation of endocytosis in bloodstream forms of Trypanosoma brucei [PDF]

open access: yes, 2020
BACKGROUND Vacuolar H-ATPase (V-ATPase) is a highly conserved protein complex which hydrolyzes ATP and pumps protons to acidify vacuolar vesicles.

Methods to assess iron and iodine status [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
Four methods are recommended for assessment of iodine nutrition: urinary iodine concentration, the goitre rate, and blood concentrations of thyroid stimulating hormone and thyroglobulin.

Upregulation of transferrin receptor-1 induces cholangiocarcinoma progression via induction of labile iron pool

open access: yesTumor Biology, 2017
Labile iron pool is a cellular source of ions available for Fenton reactions resulting in oxidative stress. Living organisms avoid an excess of free irons by a tight control of iron homeostasis.

The small GTPase RAB10 regulates endosomal recycling of the LDL receptor and transferrin receptor in hepatocytes

open access: yesJournal of Lipid Research, 2022
The low-density lipoprotein receptor (LDLR) mediates the hepatic uptake of circulating low-density lipoproteins (LDLs), a process that modulates the development of atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease.

CD71 (Transferrin Receptor) [PDF]

open access: yesAmerican Journal of Clinical Pathology, 2010
Abstract Accurate analysis of the erythroid lineage is essential in evaluating bone marrow biopsy specimens and can be particularly challenging in the setting of dyserythropoiesis. Transferrin receptor (CD71) mediates the uptake of transferrin-iron complexes and is highly expressed on the surface of cells of the erythroid lineage ...

Anticancer drug delivery with transferrin targeted polymeric chitosan vesicles [PDF]

open access: yes, 2004
The study reports the initial biological evaluation of targeted polymeric glycol chitosan vesicles as carrier systems for doxorubicin (Dox). Transferrin (Tf) was covalently bound to the Dox-loaded palmitoylated glycol chitosan (GCP) vesicles using ...
