Wenger M.J., Murray-Kolb L.E., Haas J.D. Variations in body iron status determine variations in body energy expenditure and brain dynamics as a function of perceptual and cognitive workload. FASEB J. 2013; 27 :840.Wenger, M.J.; Murray-Kolb, L.E.; Haas, J.D. Variations in body ...
recently shown to be essential for iron binding20. To investigate the function of VIT, the coding region was amplified fromT. gondiicDNA and cloned into a constitutive yeast expression vector and expressed in wild type (BY4742) and Δccc121S. cerevisiae(...
The maintenance of iron homeostasis is essential for proper cardiac function. A growing body of evidence suggests that iron imbalance is the common denominator in many subtypes of cardiovascular disease. In the past 10 years, ferroptosis, an iron-dependent form of regulated cell death, has become ...
Iron is essential for immune function. A deficiency canincrease susceptibilityto infections and lead to prolonged recovery from illnesses. 4. Pregnancy complications A deficiency in ironincreases the riskof: Preterm birth. Low birth weight. Developmental issues in the baby. ...
Thus, the main function of O2 in aerobes is to serve as a sink to accept the electrons generated during oxidative catabolism of carbon-based fuels for efficient energy production. However, a small portion of O2 undergoes partial reduction in the respiratory chain, but also during other ...
Other iron-regulatory proteins, such as IRP1 and IRP2, contribute to cancer in ways that are less well understood. Iron is crucial to many fundamental cellular processes, including DNA synthesis, proliferation, cell cycle regulation and the function of proteins containing iron–sulphur clusters. ...
Iron deficiency continues to be the most common specific nutritional deficiency seen in North America and in the rest of the world. This discussion addresses itself to the function of iron in the body, the prevalence of iron deficiency, its diagnosis, the mechanisms by which it may develop, tr...
Moreover, iron homeostasis plays a key role in macrophage function. On one hand, macrophages process the majority of ionic iron liberated from phagocytes senescent and damaged erythrocytes, returning this iron to the circulation or sequestering cytoplasmic iron in ferritin, thereby maintaining iron ...
it is proposed that there is one cause underlying the numerous phenotypes of this disease and that the responsible molecular pathway is a deficiency of iron in the lung tissues. This deficiency can be either absolute (e.g. asthma in the neonate and during both pregnancy and menstruation) or ...
Multi-function hair iron {3-WAY HAIR IRON} To provide a multi-function hair iron capable of producing various hair designs. A multi-function hair iron includes a first body (11) and a second body (12), one end of which is rotatably connected at a predetermined angle with a hinge ......
