چکیده

We used the Ussing chamber model to study heme iron absorption by rat duodenal mucosa. Heme iron was obtained by enzymic digestion of bovine haemoglobin and concentration of heme (HPH). Its uptake and mucosal transfer was compared to iron gluconate (Gluc), at 100 microM and 1 mM. At 100 microM iron uptake (Qtot), mucosal retention (Qm) and transfer across the mucosa (Qs) was similar for the two sources of iron. Qs was significantly higher at 1 mM for Gluc but not for HPH, and was associated with higher levels of Qm. Addition of L-histidine did not improve iron absorption and indeed it decreased it if iron was provided as Gluc. L-cysteine increased the transfer of iron of both sources. In the in vitro model using rat digestive mucosa, heme iron appeared to be an efficiently used source of iron, which might prevent its accumulation by gut when supplied in excess.

Inhibition of Heme Polymerization, the Mechanism of Antimalarial Activity in Phlomis caucasica Rech.f. (Lamiaceae)

Background: Malaria is one of the most important parasitic diseases in the world caused by Plasmodium species. The malaria parasite digests hemoglobin in vacuole to amino acids and heme. Plasmodium has got several detoxification mechanisms to protect itself from toxic heme. The most important mechanism is heme polymerization. Identifying compounds that inhibit heme polymerization is an approach...

The effect of water borne nickel on iron metabolism and heme biosynthesis in common carp (Cyprinus carpio)

Nickel is an essential element for all living organisms such as microorganisms, plants and animals. When nickel concentration exceeds the necessary concentration, could be toxic, and likewise causes adverse effects in living organisms. In this study, following determining nickel LC50-96h for common carp (Cyprinus carpio), nickel sub-lethal treatments including 0 (control), 0.055, 0.275, 0.572, ...

High specific activity heme-Fe and its application for studying heme-Fe metabolism in Caco-2 cell monolayers.

Heme-Fe is an important source of dietary iron in humans. Caco-2 cells have been used extensively to study human iron absorption with an emphasis on factors affecting nonheme iron absorption. Therefore, we examined several factors known to affect heme iron absorption. Cells grown in bicameral chambers were incubated with high specific activity [59Fe]heme alone or with 1% globin, BSA, or fatty a...
