    Nutrients 2013, 5, 957-970; doi:10.3390/nu5030957 OPEN ACCESS nutrients ISSN 2072-6643 www.mdpi.com/journal/nutrients Review Regulatory Effects of Cu, Zn, and Ca on Fe Absorption: The Intricate Play between Nutrient Transporters Nathalie Scheers Division of Life Sciences, Food Science, Department of Chemical and Biological Engineering, Chalmers University of Technology, SE-412 96 Gothenburg, Sweden; E-Mail: [email protected]; Tel.: +46-31-772-3821; Fax: +46-31-772-3830 Received: 4 February 2013; in revised form: 8 March 2013 / Accepted: 15 March 2013 / Published: 20 March 2013 Abstract: Iron is an essential nutrient for almost every living organism because it is required in a number of biological processes that serve to maintain life. In humans, recycling of senescent erythrocytes provides most of the daily requirement of iron. In addition, we need to absorb another 1–2 mg Fe from the diet each day to compensate for losses due to epithelial sloughing, perspiration, and bleeding. Iron absorption in the intestine is mainly regulated on the enterocyte level by effectors in the diet and systemic regulators accessing the enterocyte through the basal lamina. Recently, a complex meshwork of interactions between several trace metals and regulatory proteins was revealed. This review focuses on advances in our understanding of Cu, Zn, and Ca in the regulation of iron absorption. Ascorbate as an important player is also considered. Keywords: iron; absorption; Fe; Zn; Cu; Ca; ascorbate 1. Introduction Iron (Fe) is the second most abundant metal on earth and is a necessity for all life. Iron plays the key role in numerous enzymatic reactions due to its ease in shifting between the two common oxidation states, ferrous (Fe2+) and ferric (Fe3+) iron.

  • The Significance of the Evolutionary Relationship of Prion Proteins and ZIP Transporters in Health and Disease
    The Significance of the Evolutionary Relationship of Prion Proteins and ZIP Transporters in Health and Disease by Sepehr Ehsani A thesis submitted in conformity with the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy Department of Laboratory Medicine and Pathobiology University of Toronto © Copyright by Sepehr Ehsani 2012 The Significance of the Evolutionary Relationship of Prion Proteins and ZIP Transporters in Health and Disease Sepehr Ehsani Doctor of Philosophy Department of Laboratory Medicine and Pathobiology University of Toronto 2012 Abstract The cellular prion protein (PrPC) is unique amongst mammalian proteins in that it not only has the capacity to aggregate (in the form of scrapie PrP; PrPSc) and cause neuronal degeneration, but can also act as an independent vector for the transmission of disease from one individual to another of the same or, in some instances, other species. Since the discovery of PrPC nearly thirty years ago, two salient questions have remained largely unanswered, namely, (i) what is the normal function of the cellular protein in the central nervous system, and (ii) what is/are the factor(s) involved in the misfolding of PrPC into PrPSc? To shed light on aspects of these questions, we undertook a discovery-based interactome investigation of PrPC in mouse neuroblastoma cells (Chapter 2), and among the candidate interactors, identified two members of the ZIP family of zinc transporters (ZIP6 and ZIP10) as possessing a PrP-like domain. Detailed analyses revealed that the LIV-1 subfamily of ZIP transporters (to which ZIPs 6 and 10 belong) are in fact the evolutionary ancestors of prions (Chapter 3).

We utilized an informatics-based approach to develop a transcriptional signature of β-cell GA stress using existing RNA sequencing and microarray datasets generated using human islets from donors with diabetes and islets where type 1(T1D) and type 2 diabetes (T2D) had been modeled ex vivo. To narrow our results to GA-specific genes, we applied a filter set of 1,030 genes accepted as GA associated.

  • 4-6 Weeks Old Female C57BL/6 Mice Obtained from Jackson Labs Were Used for Cell Isolation
    Methods Mice: 4-6 weeks old female C57BL/6 mice obtained from Jackson labs were used for cell isolation. Female Foxp3-IRES-GFP reporter mice (1), backcrossed to B6/C57 background for 10 generations, were used for the isolation of naïve CD4 and naïve CD8 cells for the RNAseq experiments. The mice were housed in pathogen-free animal facility in the La Jolla Institute for Allergy and Immunology and were used according to protocols approved by the Institutional Animal Care and use Committee. Preparation of cells: Subsets of thymocytes were isolated by cell sorting as previously described (2), after cell surface staining using CD4 (GK1.5), CD8 (53-6.7), CD3ε (145- 2C11), CD24 (M1/69) (all from Biolegend). DP cells: CD4+CD8 int/hi; CD4 SP cells: CD4CD3 hi, CD24 int/lo; CD8 SP cells: CD8 int/hi CD4 CD3 hi, CD24 int/lo (Fig S2). Peripheral subsets were isolated after pooling spleen and lymph nodes. T cells were enriched by negative isolation using Dynabeads (Dynabeads untouched mouse T cells, 11413D, Invitrogen). After surface staining for CD4 (GK1.5), CD8 (53-6.7), CD62L (MEL-14), CD25 (PC61) and CD44 (IM7), naïve CD4+CD62L hiCD25-CD44lo and naïve CD8+CD62L hiCD25-CD44lo were obtained by sorting (BD FACS Aria). Additionally, for the RNAseq experiments, CD4 and CD8 naïve cells were isolated by sorting T cells from the Foxp3- IRES-GFP mice: CD4+CD62LhiCD25–CD44lo GFP(FOXP3)– and CD8+CD62LhiCD25– CD44lo GFP(FOXP3)– (antibodies were from Biolegend). In some cases, naïve CD4 cells were cultured in vitro under Th1 or Th2 polarizing conditions (3, 4).

  • Follicular Thyroglobulin Enhances Gene Expression Necessary for Thyroid Hormone Secretion

We have previously shown that follicular thyroglobulin (Tg) has an unexpected function as an autocrine negative- feedback regulator of thyroid hormone (TH) biosynthesis. Tg significantly suppressed the expression of genes necessary for iodide transport and TH synthesis by counteracting stimulation by TSH. However, whether follicular Tg also regulates intracellular TH transport and its secretion from thyrocytes is not known. In the present study, we examined the potential effect of follicular Tg on TH transport and secretion by quantifying the expression of two TH transporters: monocarboxylate transporter 8 (MCT8) and μ-crystallin (CRYM). Our results showed that follicular Tg at physiologic concentrations enhanced both the mRNA and protein expression levels of MCT8 and CRYM in a time- and dose-dependent manner in rat thyroid FRTL-5 cells. Although both the sodium/iodide symporter (NIS), an essential transporter of iodide from blood into the thyroid, and MCT8, a transporter of synthesized TH from the gland, were co-localized on the basolateral membrane of rat thyrocytes in vivo, Tg decreased NIS expression and increased the expression of MCT8 by counteracting TSH action.

Gayle Overend 3 Abstract The insect Malpighian tubule is involved in osmoregulation, detoxification and immune function, physiological processes which are essential for insect development and survival. As the Malpighian tubules contain many ion channels and transporters, they could be an effective tissue for targeting with novel pesticides to control populations of Diptera. Many of the insecticide compounds used to control insect pest species are no longer suited to their task, and so new means of control must be found.

Since then, many cases with DUOX2 mutations have been reported. However, the clinical features and prognosis of individuals with DUOX2 defects have not been clarified. Objective: We investigated the prognosis of patients with congenital hypothyroidism (CH) due to DUOX2 mutations. Patients: Twenty-five patients were identified by a neonatal screening program and included seven familial cases. Their serum TSH values ranged from 18.9 to 734.6 mU/l. Twenty-two of the patients had low serum free thyroxine (fT4) levels (0.17–1.1 ng/dl). Twenty-four of the patients were treated with L-thyroxine. Methods: We analyzed the DUOX2, thyroid peroxidase, NaC/IK symporter, and dual oxidase maturation factor 2 genes of these 25 patients by PCR-amplified direct sequencing. An additional 11 genes were analyzed in 11 of the 25 patients using next-generation sequencing. Results: All patients had biallelic DUOX2 mutations, and seven novel alleles were detected.

  • Supplemental Information
    Supplemental information Dissection of the genomic structure of the miR-183/96/182 gene. Previously, we showed that the miR-183/96/182 cluster is an intergenic miRNA cluster, located in a ~60-kb interval between the genes encoding nuclear respiratory factor-1 (Nrf1) and ubiquitin-conjugating enzyme E2H (Ube2h) on mouse chr6qA3.3 (1). To start to uncover the genomic structure of the miR- 183/96/182 gene, we first studied genomic features around miR-183/96/182 in the UCSC genome browser (http://genome.UCSC.edu/), and identified two CpG islands 3.4-6.5 kb 5’ of pre-miR-183, the most 5’ miRNA of the cluster (Fig. 1A; Fig. S1 and Seq. S1). A cDNA clone, AK044220, located at 3.2-4.6 kb 5’ to pre-miR-183, encompasses the second CpG island (Fig. 1A; Fig. S1). We hypothesized that this cDNA clone was derived from 5’ exon(s) of the primary transcript of the miR-183/96/182 gene, as CpG islands are often associated with promoters (2). Supporting this hypothesis, multiple expressed sequences detected by gene-trap clones, including clone D016D06 (3, 4), were co-localized with the cDNA clone AK044220 (Fig. 1A; Fig. S1). Clone D016D06, deposited by the German GeneTrap Consortium (GGTC) (http://tikus.gsf.de) (3, 4), was derived from insertion of a retroviral construct, rFlpROSAβgeo in 129S2 ES cells (Fig. 1A and C). The rFlpROSAβgeo construct carries a promoterless reporter gene, the β−geo cassette - an in-frame fusion of the β-galactosidase and neomycin resistance (Neor) gene (5), with a splicing acceptor (SA) immediately upstream, and a polyA signal downstream of the β−geo cassette (Fig.
