Hepcidin and its role in iron absorption.
Maintaining the correct iron balance is crucial to good health. Disorders of iron homeostasis have a global distribution. As iron is not actively excreted by the body, understanding the role of proteins involved in regulating iron uptake is essential to our understanding of disease involving iron homeostasis. Over the past 10 years, major advances have been made in understanding the genetics of...
متن کاملEvaluation of Nonlinear Dynamic Response of Rigid and Semi-Rigid Steel Frames under Far-Field Earthquake Records
The purpose of this research was to evaluate the nonlinear dynamic response of rigid and semi-rigid steel frames under Far-Fault Earthquake Records. Accordingly, the fragility curve of the moment frames with rigid and semi-rigid connections was determined. Considering the analytical knowledge of structures in the past, the analysis and design of steel frames based on the assumptions of rigid or...
متن کاملElectromagnetic waves a new tool for cellular communications
Distant cells can communicate with each other in a variety of ways. Electrical and chemical mechanisms are two known mechanisms for the establishment of intercellular connections. In recent years, research has shown that many cells influence each other's behavior by sending electromagnetic waves together. The existence of such connections can justify many unknown cellular behaviors. The article...
متن کاملAtmospheric iron deposition: global distribution, variability, and human perturbations.
Atmospheric inputs of iron to the open ocean are hypothesized to modulate ocean biogeochemistry. This review presents an integration of available observations of atmospheric iron and iron deposition, and also covers bioavailable iron distributions. Methods for estimating temporal variability in ocean deposition over the recent past are reviewed. Desert dust iron is estimated to represent 95% of...
متن کاملCovariant glacial-interglacial dust fluxes in the equatorial Pacific and Antarctica.
Dust plays a critical role in Earth's climate system and serves as a natural source of iron and other micronutrients to remote regions of the ocean. We have generated records of dust deposition over the past 500,000 years at three sites spanning the breadth of the equatorial Pacific Ocean. Equatorial Pacific dust fluxes are highly correlated with global ice volume and with dust fluxes to Antarc...
