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

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

Association Between Norepinephrine Levels and Abnormal Iron Status in Patients With Chronic Heart Failure: Is Iron Deficiency More Than a Comorbidity?

Journal of the American Heart Association: Cardiovascular and Cerebrovascular Disease, 2019
Background Mechanisms underlying iron homeostasis dysregulation in patients with chronic heart failure remain unsettled. In cardiomyocyte models, norepinephrine may lead to intracellular iron depletion, but the potential association between ...

Accelerated Transferrin Degradation in HFE-Deficient Mice Is Associated with Increased Transferrin Saturation [PDF]

The Journal of Nutrition, 2006
HFE, a major histocompatibility complex class I-related protein, is implicated in the iron overload disease, hereditary hemochromatosis. Whereas patients with hereditary hemochromatosis have low serum transferrin levels, little is known about transferrin turnover in HFE deficiency states.

Avaliação das necessidades em ferro durante o tratamento da anemia com eritropoietina humana recombinante nos doentes com insuficiência renal crónica em hemodiálise.

Acta Médica Portuguesa, 1992
Iron deficiency occurs often in patients with recombinant human Erythropoietin (rhEPO) therapy in chronic renal failure (CRF) associated anemia. We have studied 10 patients with CRF on regular hemodialysis (HD), female = 8, male = 2, average age = 49 [32

Genetically predicted iron status was associated with the risk of prostate cancer

Frontiers in Oncology, 2022
IntroductionObservational studies have reported a relationship between iron status and the risk of prostate cancer. However, it remains uncertain whether the association is causal or due to confounding or reverse causality.

Increased Serum Transferrin Saturation Is Associated with Lower Serum Transferrin Receptor Concentration [PDF]

Clinical Chemistry, 1999
AbstractBackground: Serum transferrin receptor (sTfR) concentrations are increased in iron deficiency. We wished to examine whether they are decreased in the presence of potential iron-loading conditions, as reflected by increased transferrin saturation (TS) on a single occasion.Methods: We compared sTfR concentrations between 570 controls with normal ...

The Effect of Transferrin Saturation on Internal Iron Exchange

Experimental Biology and Medicine, 1986
Radioiron was introduced into the intestinal lumen to evaluate absorption, injected as nonviable red cells to evaluate reticuloendothelial (RE) processing of iron, and injected as hemoglobin to evaluate hepatocyte iron processing. Redistribution of iron through the plasma was evaluated in control animals and animals whose transferrin was saturated by ...

Status of Transferrin Saturation in Diabetic Nephropathypatients

Journal of Pharmaceutical Research International, 2021
Serum transferrin saturation (TSAT%) ratio is a commonly used laboratory measure of iron deficiency and iron overload in clinical practice. It has  become a  first step in the routine screening of iron deficiency anaemia in  patients with chronic kidney disease  and  for  the  detection of pathological iron overload in assessment for hemochromatosis ...

STUDY ON THE LATENT IRON DEFICIENCY IN PATIENTS WITH TRICHURIASIS [PDF]

Iranian Journal of Public Health, 1998
Trichuriasis is an intestinal parasitic disease which is caused by Trichuris trichiura, a soil transmitted helminth. In order to evaluate the iron status of trichuriasis in patients a total of 120 (49 males and 71 females) cases with Trichuris trichiura ...
