Transferrin stimulates iron absorption, exocytosis, and secretion in cultured intestinal cells
(1999)
The cellular mechanism by which basolateral transferrin (Tf) produces an increase in apical-to-basolateral Fe flux in Caco-2 cells was analyzed. After a pulse of 59Fe from the apical medium, three types of basolateral 59Fe ...
Transferrin and thyroid hormone converge in the control of myelinogenesis
(Academic Press Inc Elsevier Science, 2015-03)
Myelination is a concerted mechanism tightly regulated in the brain. Although several factors are known to participate during this process, the complete sequence of events is far from being fully elucidated. Separate effects ...
Combined effects of transferrin and thyroid hormone during oligodendrogenesis In vitro
(Wiley, 2016-07)
Thyroid hormones (THs) and transferrin (Tf) are factors capable of favoring myelination due to their positive effects on oligodendroglial cell (OLG) differentiation. The first notion of a combined effect of apotransferrin ...
Neural and oligodendrocyte progenitor cells: transferrin effects on cell proliferation
(Portland Press, 2013-03)
NSC (neural stem cells)/NPC (neural progenitor cells) are multipotent and self-renew throughout adulthood in the SVZ (subventricular zone) of the mammalian CNS (central nervous system). These cells are considered interesting ...
Oligodendrogenesis: the role of iron
(Wiley, 2010-03)
Iron seems to be an essential factor in myelination and oligodendrocyte (OLGc) biology. However, the specific role of iron in these processes remains to be elucidated. Iron deficiency (ID) imposed to developing rats has ...
Advances on the interaction of polypyridyl Cr(III) complexes with transporting proteins and its potential relevance in photodynamic therapy
(Elsevier Science Inc, 2011-10)
The present study reports a detailed investigation into the interaction of [Cr(phen) 2(dppz)] 3+ and [Cr(phen) 3] 3+ with transferrin, the key protein for the transport of Fe 3+ in blood plasma; its cycle holds promise as ...
Oligodendrocyte differentiation and signaling after transferrin internalization: a mechanism of action
(Elsevier, 2013-10)
Oligodendrocytes are the cells producing the myelin membrane around the axons in the central nervous system and, although apotransferrin (aTf) is required for oligodendrocyte differentiation, the underlying mechanisms are ...
