Iron status influences non-alcoholic fatty liver disease in obesity through the gut microbiome

Xavier Fernandez-Real Girona

Background: The gut microbiome and iron status are known to play a role in the pathophysiology of nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD), although their complex interaction remains unclear. Results: Here, we applied an integrative systems medicine approa ...

Catalytic effects of photogenerated Fe(II) on the ligand-controlled dissolution of Iron(hydr)oxides by EDTA and DFOB

Janet Gordon Hering

Low bioavailability of iron due to poor solubility of iron(hydr)oxides limits the growth of microorganisms and plants in soils and aquatic environments. Previous studies described accelerated dissolution of iron(hydr)oxides under continuous illumination, b ...

Iron sequestration by transferrin 1 mediates nutritional immunity in Drosophila melanogaster

Bruno Lemaitre, Jean Philippe Boquete, Igor Iatsenko, Alice Marra, Jasquelin Peña

Iron sequestration is a recognized innate immune mechanism against invading pathogens mediated by iron-binding proteins called transferrins. Despite many studies on antimicrobial activity of transferrins in vitro, their specific in vivo functions are poorl ...

Laboratory electromagnets: from the beginnings to Electromagnet Laboratories

Jean-François Loude

The mechanical action on iron of the first horseshoe electro-magnets (1824) was obvious. Their use to investigate more subtle magnetic, magneto-optical, atomic or nuclear properties of matter began in 1845 with Faraday. Until the first iron-less Bitter mag ...

Applying a Trojan Horse Strategy to Ruthenium Complexes in the Pursuit of Novel Antibacterial Agents

Paul Joseph Dyson, Lucinda Kate Batchelor, Quentin François Antoine Laurent

Siderophores are iron chelators secreted by bacteria to scavenge iron(III) from their surrounding environment. They possess their own internalization pathway that is sufficiently unselective to be hijacked, making them suitable for Trojan Horse strategy ap ...

Probing perturbed hepatic metabolism in bile-duct-ligated rats with hyperpolarized 13C pyruvate and arginine

Rolf Gruetter, Cristina Ramona Cudalbu, Dmitri Firsov, Hikari Ananda Infinity Yoshihara

Detoxification of ammonia by the urea cycle and maintenance of glucose homeostasis by gluconeogenesis are two critical functions of the liver. The bile duct ligation (BDL) model of cirrhosis was used to test the ability of hyperpolarized [6-13C]arginine an ...
