Wolbachia Interferes with Ferritin Expression and Iron Metabolism in Insects
Wolbachia is an intracellular bacterium generally described as being a facultative reproductive parasite. However, Wolbachia is necessary for oogenesis completion in the wasp Asobara tabida. This dependence has evolved recently as a result of interference with apoptosis during oogenesis. Through comparative transcriptomics between symbiotic and aposymbiotic individuals, we observed a differenti...
متن کاملChemistry and Pharmacokinetics of Gallium Maltolate, a Compound With High Oral Gallium Bioavailability
Gallium maltolate, tris(3-hydroxy-2-methyl-4H-pyran-4-onato)gallium (GaM), is an orally active gallium compound for therapeutic use. It is moderately soluble in water (10.7 +/- 0.9 mg/mL at 25 composite functionC) with an octanol partition coefficient of 0.41+/-0.08. The molecule is electrically neutral in aqueous solution at neutral pH; a dilute aqueous solution (2.5 x10-(-5) M) showed little ...
متن کاملPharmacokinetics of gallium maltolate after intragastric administration in neonatal foals.
OBJECTIVE To determine the pharmacokinetics of gallium maltolate (GaM) after intragastric administration in healthy foals. ANIMALS 6 healthy neonatal foals. PROCEDURES Each foal received GaM (20 mg/kg) by intragastric administration. Blood samples were obtained before (time 0) and at 0.25, 0.5, 1, 2, 4, 8, 12, 24, 36, and 48 hours after GaM administration for determination of serum gallium ...
متن کاملHepatocellular carcinoma detection by gallium scan and subsequent treatment by gallium maltolate: rationale and case study.
Gallium is antiproliferative to many types of cancer, due primarily to its ability to act as a non-functional mimic of ferric iron (Fe(3+)). Because Fe(3+) is needed for ribonucleotide reductase activity--and thus DNA synthesis--gallium can inhibit DNA production and cell division. Diagnostic gallium scans have shown that hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is commonly avid for gallium. Furthermore,...
متن کاملGallium disrupts iron metabolism of mycobacteria residing within human macrophages.
Mycobacterium tuberculosis and M. avium complex (MAC) enter and multiply within monocytes and macrophages in phagosomes. In vitro growth studies using standard culture media indicate that siderophore-mediated iron (Fe) acquisition plays a critical role in the growth and metabolism of both M. tuberculosis and MAC. However, the applicability of such studies to conditions within the macrophage pha...
