| 11. | Transcriptional regulation of transferrin is upregulated by retinoic acid.
|
| 12. | Most siderophores are unable to remove iron from transferrin.
|
| 13. | These are referred to as " carbohydrate-deficient transferrins ".
|
| 14. | Thus, this form of the disease leads to elevated transferrin saturation levels.
|
| 15. | Transferrin glycoproteins bind iron tightly, but reversibly.
|
| 16. | Transferrin plays a key role in areas where erythropoiesis and active cell division occur.
|
| 17. | Transferrin receptor production depends on a similar mechanism.
|
| 18. | Especially transferrin and albumin are good binding partners.
|
| 19. | Because iron export is impaired, iron is unavailable for transport by circulating transferrin.
|
| 20. | Transferrin acts as a growth factor for the cancerous cells and is dependent on iron.
