Preparation and characterization of iron-alginate beads with some types of iron used in supplementation and fortification strategies
(Elsevier, 2018)
Our work aimed to develop and characterize different alginate beads with either non-heme iron or a blend of heme/non-heme iron. We chose non-heme iron salts such as ferrous sulfate (FS), ferrous ammonium sulfate (FAS), ...
Iron deficiency in infancy: applying a physiologic framework for prediction
(AMER SOC CLINICAL NUTRITION, 2006-12)
Background: Infants aged 6-24 mo are at high risk of iron deficiency. Numerous studies worldwide have sought to identify predictors of iron deficiency in this age group.
Objective: The objectives of the study were to apply ...
Iron supply determines apical/basolateral membrane distribution of intestinal iron transporters DMT1 and ferroportin 1
(2010)
00168.2009.—Intestinal iron absorption comprises
the coordinated activity of the influx transporter divalent metal
transporter 1 (DMT1) and the efflux transporter ferroportin (FPN). In
this work, we studied the movement ...
Non-heme iron as ferrous sulfate does not interact with heme iron absorption in humans
(2012)
The absorption of heme iron has been described as distinctly different from that of non-heme iron. Moreover, whether heme and non-heme iron compete for absorption has not been well established. Our objective was to investigate ...
Absorption of Iron from Ferritin Is Independent of Heme Iron and Ferrous Salts in Women and Rat Intestinal Segments
(AMER SOC NUTRITION, 2012-03)
Ferritin iron from food is readily bioavailable to humans and has the potential for treating iron deficiency. Whether ferritin iron absorption is mechanistically different from iron absorption from small iron complexes/salts ...
Erythrocyte CuZn superoxide dismutase activity is decreased in iron-deficiency anemia
(2006)
Iron and copper are essential microminerals that are intimately related. The present study was performed to determine the effect of iron-deficiency anemia (IDA) and treatment with iron on laboratory indicators of copper ...
Characterization of a novel encapsulated oral iron supplement to prevent iron deficiency anemia in neonatal piglets
(American Society of Animal Science, 2016)
The aim of this study was to characterize nonheme iron (NHI) and heme iron (HI) microparticles to elaborate a novel oral iron supplement, determining its effect on the iron nutritional status of neonatal piglets. Nonheme ...
Regulatory mechanisms of intestinal iron absorption - uncovering of a fast-response mechanism based on DMT1 and ferroportin endocytosis
(Wiley, 2010)
Knowledge on the intestinal iron transport process and the regulation of body iron stores has greatly increased during the last decade. The liver, through the sensing of circulating iron, is now recognized as the central ...
Effect of various calcium salts on non-heme iron bioavailability in fasted women of childbearing age
(Elsevier, 2018)
Introduction: Micronutrient deficiencies are one of the most important public health issues worldwide and iron (Fe) deficiency anemia is the most prevalent micronutrient deficiency. Iron deficiency often coexists with ...
Mitochondrial iron homeostasis and its dysfunctions in neurodegenerative disorders
(Elsevier, 2015)
Synthesis of the iron-containing prosthetic groups—heme and iron–sulfur clusters—occurs in mitochondria. The
mitochondrion is also an important producer of reactive oxygen species (ROS), which are derived fromelectrons
leaking ...
