OBJECTIVE To determine the concentration of soluble transferrin receptors (sTfR) in patients with malaria. STUDY DESIGN Cross-sectional, analytical study. PLACE AND DURATION OF STUDY Baqai Institute of Haematology, Baqai Medical University, Karachi, from December 2009 to April 2010. METHODOLOGY Twenty samples from normal male and female subjects each were drawn for establishing the refere...
متن کاملRegulation of HeLa cell transferrin receptors.
HeLa cells were found to have a single class of non-interacting receptors specific for transferrin. Both apotransferrin and diferric transferrin competed equally with 125I-diferric transferrin for receptor binding. Transferrin binding was temperature-dependent and reversible. Binding of transferrin to cells exhibited a KD of 27 nM with a maximum binding capacity of 1.8-3.7 x 10(6) molecules/cel...
متن کاملRole of transferrin, transferrin receptors, and iron in macrophage listericidal activity
It is not yet known what properties distinguish macrophages which can kill facultative intracellular bacteria, such as Listeria monocytogenes, from those which cannot. Listeria is an organism which requires iron for growth, yet macrophage listericidal mechanisms are also likely to be iron dependent. We show here that resident peritoneal macrophages and thioglycollate-elicited macrophages cannot...
متن کاملDelivery of therapeutic nucleic acids via transferrin and transferrin receptors: lipoplexes and other carriers.
INTRODUCTION The overexpression of transferrin (Tf) receptors on cancer cells renders them a useful target for the delivery of small-molecule drugs and nucleic acid therapeutics to these cells. This approach could alleviate the non-target effects of the drugs. AREAS COVERED The function of the Tf receptor, the development of Tf-lipid-DNA complexes (Tf lipoplexes), therapeutic use of lipoplexe...
