Hepcidin, a peptide hormone that is mostly secreted by hepatocytes, inactivates ferroportins and triggers their endocytosis [53], which leads to a decrease in the concentration of free Fe3+ in the blood. Accordingly, hepcidin level has a significant effect on iron metabolism. A large number ...
15.Objective To study the influence of duration of blood donor on ferritin(SF), transferrin(TF) levels. 目的探讨献血员献血时间对血清铁蛋白(SF)、转铁蛋白(TF)含量的影响。 16.While monitoring ferritin is a good way to measure iron, it would be more accurate to measure the actual iron levels...

By measuring ALT and AST levels in blood, it was shown that giving mice continuous oral HDN (300 mg/kg) for 6 and 8 weeks helped to mitigate the liver damage brought on by oral DON (200 μg/kg) (Fig. 1B-C). Subsequent to HE staining of pathological Discussion Extreme weather ...
The acoustic measurements of the front-back distinction (second formant, the difference of the first and second formants [Ladefoged, 1993]) show that the effect of adjacent back vowels on the front quality of the TVs is only weakly significant. The articulatory measurements of the same data, ...
Trematodes of the genus Schistosoma live in iron-rich blood, feed on red blood cells and store abundant iron in vitelline cells. Ferritins are multi-meric proteins that store iron inside cells. Three ferritin isoforms in Schistosoma japonicum are known, namely SjFer0, SjFer1 and SjFer2; ...

The present study is a continuation of the work on Thalassemia major patients and is carried out on the same patients in which the sero-prevalence of viral hepatitis and HIV was determined, published in the Tropical Dr. Journal [10]. However, the objectives are entirely different from the one...

Here we report an unusual intronless gene on chromosome 5q23.1 that encodes a 242-amino acid precursor of a ferritin H-like protein. This 30-kDa protein is targeted to mitochondria and processed to a 22-kDa subunit that assembles into typical ferritin shells and has ferroxidase activity. ...
