Hepcidin is a hepatocellular hormone that inhibits the release of iron from certain cell populations, including enterocytes and reticuloendothelial cells. The regulation of hepcidin (HAMP) gene expression by iron status is mediated in part by the signaling molecule bone morphogenetic protein 6 (BMP6). We took advantage of the low iron status of juvenile mice to characterize the regulation of Bmp6 and Hamp1 expression by iron administered in three forms: 1) ferri-transferrin (Fe-Tf), 2) ferric ammonium citrate (FAC), and 3) liver ferritin. Each of these forms of iron enters cells by distinct mechanisms and chemical forms. Iron was parenterally administered to 10-day-old mice, and hepatic expression of Bmp6 and Hamp1 mRNAs was measured 6 h later. We observed that hepatic Bmp6 expression increased in response to ferritin but was unchanged by Fe-Tf or FAC. Hepatic Hamp1 expression likewise increased in response to ferritin and Fe-Tf but was decreased by FAC. Exogenous ferritin increased Bmp6 and Hamp1 expression in older mice as well. Removing iron from ferritin markedly decreased its effect on Bmp6 expression. Exogenously administered ferritin and the derived iron localized in the liver primarily to sinusoidal lining cells. Moreover, expression of Bmp6 mRNA in isolated adult rodent liver cells was much higher in sinusoidal lining cells than hepatocytes (endothelial > stellate > Kupffer). We conclude that exogenous iron-containing ferritin upregulates hepatic Bmp6 expression, and we speculate that liver ferritin contributes to regulation of Bmp6 and, thus, Hamp1 genes. 相似文献

Following intraperitoneal injection of rats with a large dose of ferric ammonium citrate containing 59Fe, some 35 to 50% of the dose was deposited in the liver within the first 1 to 4 h. Almost all of the deposited iron could be precipitated with a ferritin antiserum from a homogenate of liver heated to 75 °C, but only half of this was precipitable when the unheated homogenate was treated with antiserum. The remainder of the ferritin iron was made available to the antiserum by treatment with deoxycholate, and was therefore presumed to be associated with membranous components of the cell.Subcellular fractionation of the liver following administration of 59Fe-labeled ferric ammonium citrate showed that most of the radioactivity deposited within the first 4 h was equally divided between the cell sap and a light microsome (membrane-rich) fraction. Ferritin in this latter fraction was made available to antibody following deoxycholate treatment. The liver microsome fraction of the young rat contains little unavailable ferritin, but with aging there is an accumulation of ferritin in the microsomal fraction which is unavailable to antibody until the membrane is removed.It is suggested that at least part of the injected iron salt is taken up by pinocytotic vesicles and transferred to ferritin within this fraction, possibly followed by release of some of this ferritin into the cell sap. 相似文献

Xanthine oxidase is able to mobilize iron from ferritin. This mobilization can be blocked by 70% by superoxide dismutase, indicating that part of its action is mediated by superoxide (O2-). Uric acid induced the release of ferritin iron at concentrations normally found in serum. The O2(-)-independent mobilization of ferritin iron by xanthine oxidase cannot be attributed to uric acid, because uricase did not influence the O2(-)-independent part and acetaldehyde, a substrate for xanthine oxidase, also revealed an O2(-)-independent part, although no uric acid was produced. Presumably the amount of uric acid produced by xanthine oxidase and xanthine is insufficient to release a measurable amount of iron from ferritin. The liberation of iron from ferritin by xanthine oxidase has important consequences in ischaemia and inflammation. In these circumstances xanthine oxidase, formed from xanthine dehydrogenase, will stimulate the formation of a non-protein-bound iron pool, and the O2(-)-produced by xanthine oxidase, or granulocytes, will be converted by 'free' iron into much more highly toxic oxygen species such as hydroxyl radicals (OH.), exacerbating the tissue damage. 相似文献

Ferritin is a cytosolic protein that stores excess iron, thereby protecting cells from iron toxicity. Ferritin-stored iron is believed to be utilized when cells become iron deficient; however, the mechanisms underlying the extraction of iron from ferritin have yet to be fully elucidated. Here, we demonstrate that ferritin is degraded in the lysosome under iron-depleted conditions and that the acidic environment of the lysosome is crucial for iron extraction from ferritin and utilization by cells. Ferritin was targeted for degradation in the lysosome even under iron-replete conditions in primary cells; however, the mechanisms underlying lysosomal targeting of ferritin were distinct under depleted and replete conditions. In iron-depleted cells, ferritin was targeted to the lysosome via a mechanism that involved autophagy. In contrast, lysosomal targeting of ferritin in iron-replete cells did not involve autophagy. The autophagy-independent pathway of ferritin delivery to lysosomes was deficient in several cancer-derived cells, and cancer-derived cell lines are more resistant to iron toxicity than primary cells. Collectively, these results suggest that ferritin trafficking may be differentially regulated by cell type and that loss of ferritin delivery to the lysosome under iron-replete conditions may be related to oncogenic cellular transformation. 相似文献

The erythrocyte ferritin content was measured in patients with either idiopathic haemochromatosis or alcoholic liver disease and iron overload to define its value as a marker for an excess of tissue iron. The mean erythrocyte ferritin content in patients with untreated idiopathic haemochromatosis was increased 60-fold and fell with phlebotomy. After phlebotomy many patients had an increased red cell ferritin content despite normal serum ferritin concentrations. That this reflected persistent iron overload with inadequate phlebotomy was suggested by the higher serum iron concentrations, percentage transferrin saturation, and urinary excretion of iron after administration of desferrioxamine, together with a lower annual iron loss by phlebotomy in this group compared with patients with treated disease and normal red cell ferritin content. The mean erythrocyte ferritin content in patients with alcoholic liver disease and iron overload was increased only sevenfold, and the ratio of erythrocyte to serum ferritin clearly discriminated these patients from those with idiopathic haemochromatosis. The determination of erythrocyte ferritin content is a useful non-invasive test for diagnosing idiopathic haemochromatosis, monitoring the effect of phlebotomy in this disorder, and distinguishing patients with this disorder from those with alcoholic liver disease with iron overload. 相似文献

In the diffuse epitheliochorial porcine placenta iron is secreted as uteroferrin by the maternal epithelium of the areola-gland subunit of the placenta. To elucidate the intracellular pathways of physiological iron in uterine gland epithelium material from 10 sows at 15 to 111 days of gestation was processed for electron microscopy by different routine methods with or without postfixation in osmium tetroxide. Ferritin particles were identified by their size and shape and the content of iron was confirmed by X-ray energy dispersive microanalysis of accumulated ferritin particles. Distinct ferritin particles were not observed in the extracellular space either basal to or luminal to the epithelial cells. Intracellular ferritin was observed apparently free in the cytoplasm, but in variable amounts. Transfer tubules and dense bodies were located basally in the secretory cells. Both of these organelles contained ferritin particles, showed reaction sites for acid phosphatase and were stained by periodic acid-thiocarbohydrazide-silver proteinate. The ciliated cells differed by having apically located dense bodies containing numerous ferritin particles. Our finding of native ferritin in cells with hormonally regulated iron transport supports the concept that transfer tubules as part of the lysosomal complex are part of the endocytic pathway in secretory cells and indicate that ferritin here is an intracellular transport or storage intermediate. 相似文献

In iron deficiency anaemia basic red cell content of ferritin is appreciably reduced. This variable was determined in 62 patients with rheumatoid arthritis to evaluate conventional laboratory indices for iron deficiency in the anaemia of rheumatoid arthritis. For 23 patients with rheumatoid arthritis and normocytic anaemia irrespective of plasma ferritin concentration, red cell ferritin content did not differ significantly from that for non-anaemic patients with rheumatoid arthritis. For 27 patients with rheumatoid arthritis and microcytic anaemia, the mean red cell ferritin content for patients with a plasma ferritin concentration in the 13-110 micrograms/l range was appreciably reduced. It was indistinguishable from that for patients with rheumatoid arthritis and classical iron deficiency anaemia, indicated by plasma ferritin concentrations of less than 12 micrograms/l. In contrast, the mean red cell ferritin content for patients with rheumatoid arthritis, microcytic anaemia, and plasma ferritin concentrations above 110 micrograms/l did not differ from that for patients with rheumatoid arthritis and normocytic anaemia. Oral treatment with iron in patients with rheumatoid arthritis, microcytic anaemia, and appreciably reduced red cell ferritin concentrations was accompanied by significant increases in haemoglobin concentration (p less than 0.01), mean corpuscular volume (p less than 0.01), and red cell ferritin contents (p less than 0.05). This treatment, however, did not produce any appreciable change in haemoglobin concentration in patients with rheumatoid arthritis, normocytic anaemia, and normal red cell ferritin contents. These findings suggest that the indices for iron deficiency in patients with rheumatoid arthritis and anaemia should include peripheral blood microcytosis together with a plasma ferritin concentration of less than 110 micrograms/l. 相似文献

Oligodendrocytes stain more strongly for iron than any other cell in the CNS, and they require iron for the production of myelin. For most cell types transferrin is the major iron delivery protein, yet neither transferrin receptor protein nor mRNA are detectable in mature oligodendrocytes. Thus an alternative iron delivery mechanism must exist. Given the significant long term consequences of developmental iron deficiency and the iron requirements for normal myelination, identification of the iron delivery mechanism for oligodendrocytes is important. Previously we have reported that oligodendrocytes bind H‐ferritin and that H‐ferritin binds to white matter tracts in vivo. Recently, T cell immunoglobulin and mucin domain‐containing protein‐2 (Tim‐2) was shown to bind and internalize H‐ferritin. In the present study we show that Tim‐2 is expressed on oligodendrocytes both in vivo and in vitro. Further, the onset of saturable H‐ferritin binding in CG4 oligodendrocyte cell line is accompanied by Tim‐2 expression. Application of a blocking antibody to the extracellular domain of Tim‐2 significantly reduces H‐ferritin binding to the differentiated CG4 cells and primary oligodendrocytes. Tim‐2 expression on CG4 cells is responsive to iron; decreasing with iron loading and increasing with iron chelation. Taken together, these data provide compelling evidence that Tim‐2 is the H‐ferritin receptor on oligodendrocytes suggesting it is the primary mechanism for iron acquisition by these cells. 相似文献

The short term response of the L-6 cell line of rat skeletal myoblasts to elevated extracellular iron concentrations was studied. It was found in all cases that iron as the nitrilotriacetate (NTA) chelate was effective at donating iron to the cells and at stimulating ferritin synthesis. After 48 h in 50 microM ferric NTA, the cellular ferritin levels rose from an undetectable level to 1.11 (+/- 0.07) ng ferritin/microgram cell protein, or 0.1% of total cell protein. Similarly, the total iron in the cells rose under the same conditions from an unmeasurable level to plateau at over 10 fmol iron/cell. In addition, it was found that these cells synthesize ferritin in response to iron in a dose-dependent manner over a range of iron concentrations from 5-1000 microM. A sensitive and specific immunoradiometric assay for rat ferritin was used in these studies to quantitate ferritin in cell lysates. 相似文献

Intracellular ferritin in newt (Triturus cristatus) erythroblasts was accessible to the chelating effects of EDTA and pyridoxal phosphate. EDTA (0.5-1 mM) promoted release of radioactive iron from ferritin of pulse-labelled erythroblasts during chase incubation, but its continuous presence was not necessary for ferritin iron mobilization. Brief exposure to EDTA was sufficient to release 60-70% of ferritin 59Fe content during ensuing chase in EDTA-free medium. EDTA also suppressed cellular iron uptake and utilization for heme synthesis, but these activities were restored upon its removal. Pyridoxal-5'-phosphate (0.5-5 mM) also stimulated loss of radioactive iron from ferritin; however, ferritin iron release by pyridoxal phosphate required its continued presence. Unlike EDTA, pyridoxal phosphate did not interfere with iron uptake or its utilization for heme synthesis. Chelator-mobilized ferritin iron accumulated initially in the hemolysate as a low-molecular-weight component and appeared to be eventually released into the medium. No radioactive ferritin was found in the medium of chelator-treated cells, indicating that secretion or loss of ferritin was not responsible for decreasing cellular ferritin 59Fe content. Moreover, there was no transfer of radioactive iron between the low-molecular-weight component released into the medium and plasma transferrin. These results indicate that chelator-released ferritin iron is not available for cellular utilization in heme synthesis and that ferritin iron released by this process is not an alternative or complementary iron source for heme synthesis. Correlation of these data with effects of succinylacetone inhibition of heme synthesis and with previous studies indicates that the main role of erythroid cell ferritin is absorption and storage of excess iron not used for heme synthesis. 相似文献

Chronic exposure to low doses of arsenite causes transformation of human osteogenic sarcoma (HOS) cells. Although oxidative stress is considered important in arsenite-induced cell transformation, the molecular and cellular mechanisms by which arsenite transforms human cells are still unknown. In the present study, we investigated whether altered iron homeostasis, known to affect cellular oxidative stress, can contribute to the arsenite-mediated cell transformation. Using arsenite-induced HOS cell transformation as a model, it was found that total iron levels are significantly higher in transformed HOS cells in comparison to parental control HOS cells. Under normal iron metabolism conditions, iron homeostasis is tightly controlled by inverse regulation of ferritin and transferrin receptor (TfR) through iron regulatory proteins (IRP). Increased iron levels in arsenite transformed cells should theoretically lead to higher ferritin and lower TfR in these cells than in controls. However, the results showed that both ferritin and TfR are decreased, apparently through two different mechanisms. A lower ferritin level in cytoplasm was due to the decreased mRNA in the arsenite-transformed HOS cells, while the decline in TfR was due to a lowered IRP-binding activity. By challenging cells with iron, it was further established that arsenite-transformed HOS cells are less responsive to iron treatment than control HOS cells, which allows accumulation of iron in the transformed cells, as exemplified by significantly lower ferritin induction. On the other hand, caffeic acid phenethyl ester (CAPE), an antioxidant previously shown to suppress As-mediated cell transformation, prevents As-mediated ferritin depletion. In conclusion, our results suggest that altered iron homeostasis contributes to arsenite-induced oxidative stress and, thus, may be involved in arsenite-mediated cell transformation. 相似文献

Background
Most models for ferritin iron release are based on reduction and chelation of iron. However, newer models showing direct Fe(III) chelation from ferritin have been proposed. Fe(III) chelation reactions are facilitated by gated pores that regulate the opening and closing of the channels.Scope of review
Results suggest that iron core reduction releases hydroxide and phosphate ions that exit the ferritin interior to compensate for the negative charge of the incoming electrons. Additionally, chloride ions are pumped into ferritin during the reduction process as part of a charge balance reaction. The mechanism of anion import or export is not known but is a natural process because phosphate is a native component of the iron mineral core and non-native anions have been incorporated into ferritin in vitro. Anion transfer across the ferritin protein shell conflicts with spin probe studies showing that anions are not easily incorporated into ferritin. To accommodate both of these observations, ferritin must possess a mechanism that selects specific anions for transport into or out of ferritin. Recently, a gated pore mechanism to open the 3-fold channels was proposed and might explain how anions and chelators can penetrate the protein shell for binding or for direct chelation of iron.Conclusions and general significance
These proposed mechanisms are used to evaluate three in vivo iron release models based on (1) equilibrium between ferritin iron and cytosolic iron, (2) iron release by degradation of ferritin in the lysosome, and (3) metallo-chaperone mediated iron release from ferritin. 相似文献15.

1. The ferritin content of liver and spleen in normal and iron-loaded rats decreased during repeated phlebotomy. 2. During increased iron demand, ferritin is degraded in toto. 3. With the ESI and EELS technique the iron distribution was followed in different cell types and cellular compartments. 4. We have demonstrated two methods of iron mobilisation: (a) catabolism of lysosomal ferritin in toto and (b) delivery of ferritin from parenchymal cell into the bile and degradation of ferritin in toto. 相似文献

Background
Elevated endogenous phosphoinositide-3-kinase (PI3K) activity is critical for cell proliferation in gliomas. Iron availability is one of the essential factors for cell growth and proliferation. However, any relation between PI3K and cellular iron homeostasis has not been understood so far.Methods
Glioma cells and human primary astrocytes were treated with class I PI3K inhibitors to examine regulation of iron homeostasis components. Regulation of ferritin was detected at mRNA and translational level. Labile iron pool (LIP) and cell proliferation were examined in glioma cells and human primary astrocytes.Results
Blocking of PI3K activity elevated ferritin level by 6–10 folds in glioma cells by augmenting mRNA expression of ferritin subunits and also by influencing ferritin translation. IRE-IRP interaction was affected due to conversion of IRP1 to cytosolic aconitase that was influenced by increased iron-sulfur scaffold protein iron-sulfur cluster assembly enzyme (ISCU) level. Elevated ferritin sequestered LIP to affect cell proliferation that was reversed in silencing ferritin by siRNAs of ferritin-H and ISCU. Human primary astrocyte with little PI3K activity did not show any change in ferritin level, LIP and cell proliferation by PI3K inhibitors.Conclusions
PI3K inhibition promotes ferritin synthesis by dual mechanism resulting sequestration of iron to limit its availability for cell proliferation in glioma cells but not in primary astrocytes.General Significance: This observation establishes a relation between PI3K signalling and iron homeostasis in glioma cells. It also implies that activated PI3K controls ferritin expression to ensure availability of adequate iron required for cell proliferation. 相似文献17.

In rats with chronic dietary iron overload, a higher amount of liver ferritin L-subunit mRNA was found mainly engaged on polysomes, whereas in control rats ferritin L-subunit mRNA molecules were largely stored in ribonucleoprotein particles. On the other hand, ferritin H-subunit mRNA was unchanged by chronic iron load and remained in the inactive cytoplasmic pool. In agreement with previous reports, in rats acutely treated with parenteral iron, only the ferritin L-subunit mRNA increased in amount, whereas both ferritin subunit mRNAs shifted to polysomes. This may indicate that, whereas in acute iron overload the hepatocyte operates a translation shift of both ferritin mRNAs to confront rapidly the abrupt entry of iron into the cell, during chronic iron overload it responds to the slow iron influx by translating a greater amount of L-subunit mRNA to synthesize isoferritins more suitable for long-term iron storage. 相似文献

The reticuloendothelial system is responsible for removing old and damaged erythrocytes from the circulation, allowing iron to return to bone marrow for hemoglobin synthesis. Cultured bone marrow macrophages were loaded with 59Fe-labelled erythroblasts and iron mobilization was studied. After erythroblast digestion, iron taken up by macrophages was found in ferritin as well as in a low-molecular-weight fraction. The analysis of iron mobilization from macrophages shows: (1) the iron was mobilized as ferritin. (2) A higher mobilization was observed when apotransferrin was present in the culture medium. (3) In the presence of apotransferrin in the culture medium, part of the iron was found as transferrin iron. (4) Iron transfer from ferritin to apotransferrin was observed in a cell-free culture medium and this process was temperature independent. The results indicate that after phagocytosis of 59Fe-labelled erythroblasts by macrophages, iron is mobilized as ferritin. In the plasma, this iron can be transferred to apotransferrin. 相似文献

Ferritin is an iron-containing protein which is a normal component of serum. The levels of ferritin are increased in the sera of some children with neuroblastoma, and this increase appears to be a potent indicator of prognosis. To determine whether synthesis of ferritin by the tumor cells contributes to these increased serum levels, we examined incorporation of radiolabeled leucine by CHP 126, a neuroblastoma derived cell line, into ferritin. Using sequential immunoprecipitation and gel electrophoresis of sonicates from cells maintained in medium containing iron in amounts standard for tissue culture, incorporation of label into ferritin was 0.04% of that into total protein synthesized over the same time period. Addition of up to 40 micrograms of iron as ferric ammonium citrate increased ferritin synthesis to a maximum of 0.16% without altering synthesis of total protein. The pattern of iron-induced enhancement in the neuroblastoma cells was similar to that which was seen using Chang liver cells, a cell line well known to be capable of ferritin synthesis. These results confirm that neuroblastoma cells can synthesize ferritin and that synthesis is regulated by exogenous iron. 相似文献

Purification of a specific repressor of ferritin mRNA translation from rabbit liver 总被引:31,自引:0,他引:31
The synthesis of ferritin is regulated at the translation level in coordination with iron availability. Under conditions of low iron, translation of ferritin mRNA is repressed and the majority of ferritin mRNA is non-polysomal. Upon an increase in iron, translation of ferritin mRNA is derepressed resulting in as much as a 50-100-fold increase in the rate of ferritin synthesis. This regulation is mediated at least in part by a specific translational repressor which binds to a conserved sequence, the iron responsive element, located in the 5'-untranslated region of ferritin mRNA. In this communication we report the purification of such a repressor from rabbit liver. This repressor, which we call the "ferritin repressor protein," has an apparent molecular mass of 90 kDa when analyzed by gel filtration chromatography. It inhibits translation of ferritin mRNA in a highly specific fashion when added to a wheat germ lysate programmed with liver poly(A+) mRNA. In addition, it binds specifically to sequences contained within the first 92 nucleotides of ferritin mRNA, most likely the iron responsive element. Analysis of highly purified repressor by sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis shows that it is composed primarily of a single polypeptide of approximately 90 kDa. Elution of this 90-kDa polypeptide from a sodium dodecyl sulfate gel followed by renaturation and analysis for repressor activity shows that it both binds to the 5'-untranslated region of ferritin mRNA and represses its translation in vitro. 相似文献
