Iron is essential for crucial neuronal functions but is also highly toxic in excess. Neurons acquire iron through transferrin receptor-mediated endocytosis and via the divalent metal transporter 1 (DMT1). The N-terminus (1A, ...

The subgranular zone (SGZ) of dentate gyrus (DG) is one of the few brain regions in which neurogenesis is maintained throughout adulthood. It is believed that newborn neurons in this region encode temporal information ...

Recent evidence shows that iron induces the endocytosis of the iron transporter dimetal transporter 1 (DMT1) during intestinal absorption. We, and others, have proposed that iron-induced DMT1 internalization underlies the ...

Previous work by our group demonstrated the key role of iron in Schwann cell (SC)maturation through an increase in cAMP, PKA activation and CREB phosphorylation. These studies opened the door to further research on a ...

Several methods for prediction of the load-settlement curves of shallow foundations have been proposed based on in-situ testing data. However, the good accuracy of such prediction depends on the definition of appropriate ...

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 ...
