Iron-regulatory proteins limit hypoxia-inducible factor 2α expression in iron deficiency
(Springer Nature, 2007)
Hypoxia stimulates erythropoiesis, the major iron-utilization pathway. We report the discovery of a conserved, functional iron-responsive element (IRE) in the 5′ untranslated region of the messenger RNA ...
An Hfe-dependent pathway mediates hyposideremia in response to lipopolysaccharide-induced inflammation in mice
(Springer Nature, 2004)
Inflammation influences iron balance in the whole organism. A common clinical manifestation of these changes is anemia of chronic disease (ACD; also called anemia of inflammation). Inflammation reduces ...
Matriptase-2 mutations in iron-refractory iron deficiency anemia patients provide new insights into protease activation mechanisms
(Oxford University Press, 2009)
Mutations leading to abrogation of matriptase-2 proteolytic activity in humans are associated with an iron-refractory iron deficiency anemia (IRIDA) due to elevated hepcidin levels. Here we describe two ...
Identification of target mRNAs of regulatory RNA-binding proteins using mRNP immunopurification and microarrays
(Springer Nature, 2007)
RNA-binding proteins (RBPs) frequently regulate the post-transcriptional fate of target mRNAs. To identify novel target mRNAs of RBPs, we incubate total RNA with recombinant RBP and immunoselect the ...
