Sentence examples for circulation of iron from inspiring English sources

Extensive research has been done to improve the biocompatibility and blood circulation of iron oxide nanoparticles by numerous surface modification and functionalization strategies for various biomedical applications [13, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18].

There is a rapid circulation of iron between plasma, bone marrow and spleen (residence times below 1 day), but a spectrum of longer residence times in the other organs (intestinal segments: ~ 2-3 days; inner organs: 5 to 13 days; and erythrocytes, brain and integument: 16 days and longer).

Acquired methemoglobinemia may arise as a result of contact with certain drugs and chemicals that produce oxidant compounds in the circulation, causing the oxidation of iron to occur faster than the enzyme system can keep it in the reduced state.

Given that maternal circulation constitutes the only source of iron to the developing fetus [38], and that HAMP down-regulates FPN1 [62], which is essential for the transport of iron through the materno-fetal interface [63] [67], we rationalized that the inflammation-induced reduction in maternal iron will restrict the amounts being transported through the materno-fetal interface.

SI represents combined TF iron in the blood circulation and reflects the amount of iron used for haematopoiesis in nucleated red blood cells in the bone marrow.

Hepcidin binds to ferroportin and induces its internalization and degradation, therefore suppressing the transport of iron into the circulation [10].

Patients with HH have defects in the control of iron entry into circulation, which allows for the toxic accumulation of iron in parenchymal cells of vital organs (Pietrangelo, 2010; Weiss, 2010).

This dynamo effect would result from the circulation of the planet's iron-rich liquid core.

The main regulator of iron levels in the circulation is hepcidin.

While increased ferroportin levels may enhance transfer of iron from the enterocyte to circulation, manganese export out of the enterocyte may be blocked.
