Ferrous iron release from transferrin by human neutrophil-derived superoxide anion: effect of pH and iron saturation.
The ability of superoxide anion (O2-) from stimulated human neutrophils (PMNs) to release ferrous iron (Fe2+) from transferrin was assessed. At pH 7.4, unstimulated PMNs released minimal amounts of O2- and failed to facilitate the release of Fe2+ from holosaturated transferrin. In contrast, incubation of phorbol myristate acetate (PMA)-stimulated PMNs with holosaturated transferrin at pH 7.4 en...
متن کاملATP potently modulates anion channel-mediated excitatory amino acid release from cultured astrocytes.
Volume-dependent ATP release and subsequent activation of purinergic P2Y receptors have been implicated as an autocrine mechanism triggering activation of volume-regulated anion channels (VRACs) in hepatoma cells. In the brain ATP is released by both neurons and astrocytes and participates in intercellular communication. We explored whether ATP triggers or modulates the release of excitatory am...
متن کاملProstacyclin receptor-mediated ATP release from erythrocytes requires the voltage-dependent anion channel.
Erythrocytes have been implicated as controllers of vascular caliber by virtue of their ability to release the vasodilator ATP in response to local physiological and pharmacological stimuli. The regulated release of ATP from erythrocytes requires activation of a signaling pathway involving G proteins (G(i) or G(s)), adenylyl cyclase, protein kinase A, and the cystic fibrosis transmembrane condu...
متن کاملPotential of Phytase-Mediated Iron Release from Cereal-Based Foods: A Quantitative View
The major part of iron present in plant foods such as cereals is largely unavailable for direct absorption in humans due to complexation with the negatively charged phosphate groups of phytate (myo-inositol (1,2,3,4,5,6)-hexakisphosphate). Human biology has not evolved an efficient mechanism to naturally release iron from iron phytate complexes. This narrative review will evaluate the quantitat...
متن کاملIsolation and characterisation of crocodile and python ovotransferrins.
Transferrins play a major role in iron homeostasis and metabolism. In vertebrates, these proteins are synthesised in the liver and dispersed within the organism by the bloodstream. In oviparous vertebrates additional expression is observed in the oviduct and the synthesised protein is deposited in egg white as ovotransferrin. Most research on ovotransferrin has been performed on the chicken pro...
