One third of people suffer from anemia, with iron (Fe) deficiency being the most common reason. The human diet includes seeds of staple crops, which contain Fe that is poorly bioavailable. One reason for low bioavailability is that these seeds store Fe in cellular compartments that also contain antinutrients, such as phytate. Thus, several studies have focused on decreasing phytate concentrations. In theory, as an alternative approach, Fe reserves might be directed to cellular compartments that are free of phytate, such as plastids. However, it is not known if seed plastid can represent a major Fe storage compartment in nature. To discover distinct types of Fe storage in nature, we investigated metal localizations in the seeds of more than twenty species using histochemical or X-ray based techniques. Results showed that in Rosids, the largest clade of eudicots, Fe reserves were primarily confined to the embryo of the seeds. Furthermore, inside the embryos, Fe accumulated specifically in the endodermal cell layer, a well-known feature that is mediated by VACUOLAR IRON TRANSPORTER1 (VIT1) in model plant Arabidopsis thaliana. In rice, Fe enrichment is lost around the provasculature in the mutants of VIT1 orthologs. Finally, in Carica papaya, Fe accumulated in numerous organelles resembling plastids; however, these organelles accumulated reserve proteins but not ferritin, failing to prove to be plastids. By investigating Fe distribution in distinct plant lineages, this study failed to discover distinct Fe storage patterns that can be useful for biofortification. However, it revealed Fe enrichment is widely conserved in the endodermal cell layer in a VIT1-dependent manner in the plant kingdom.

The association between metabolic syndrome and its components with systemic lupus erythematosus: a comprehensive systematic review and meta-analysis of observational studies
Hallajzadeh, J.; Khoramdad, M.; Izadi, N.; Karamzad, N.; Almasi-Hashiani, A.; Ayubi, E.; Qorbani, M.; Pakzad, R.; Sullman, M. J. M.; Safiri, S. (2018-05-01)
Objectives: Based upon inflammatory-related factors in chronic systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE), as well as the long-term prescription of corticosteroids, metabolic syndrome (MetS) prevalence is expected to be higher in SLE patients than among those without SLE. The aim of this study was to systematically analyze: (1) the worldwide prevalence of MetS in patients with SLE using different criteria, (2) the risk of MetS in patients with SLE compared with those without SLE, and (3) the risk of MetS component ...
A direct role of collagen glycation in bone fracture
Poundarik, Atharva A.; Wu, Ping-Cheng; Evis, Zafer; Sroga, Grazyna E.; Ural, Ani; Rubin, Mishaela; Vashishth, Deepak (2015-12-01)
Non-enzymatic glycation (NEG) is an age-related process accelerated by diseases like diabetes, and causes the accumulation of advanced glycation end-products (AGEs). NEG-mediated modification of bone's organic matrix, principally collagen type-I, has been implicated in impairing skeletal physiology and mechanics. Here, we present evidence, from in vitro and in vivo models, and establish a causal relationship between collagen glycation and alterations in bone fracture at multiple length scales. Through atomi...
The effects of high cholesterol/high fat diet on endoplasmic reticulum stress and neuronal dysfunction in the hippocampus and cerebral cortex of APOE-/- MICE
Mengi, Naz; Yanık, Tülin; Department of Molecular Biology and Genetics (2019)
Hyperlipidemia is an obesity-associated lipid metabolism disorder with high serum total cholesterol (TC) levels and is known to be a risk factor for neurodegenerative diseases. High-fat diet (HFD) induced elevated inflammation levels accompanied by increased levels of apoptosis markers and decreased levels of synaptic proteins in the hippocampus points out a possible neuronal loss. Protein kinase RNA-like endoplasmic reticulum kinase (PERK) pathway is activated by endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress. The acti...
Assessment of the impacts of hyperlipidemia on brain and modulation of perk pathway against hyperlipidemia- induced synaptic impairment on hippocampus
Aşkın, Bilge; Yanık, Tülay.; Department of Molecular Biology and Genetics (2019)
Hyperlipidemia is characterized by elevated total cholesterol levels in the circulation, and it is often associated with co-occurrence of neuronal dysfunction and subsequent neurodegeneration. Hyperlipidemia-induced inflammation, synaptic damage and neuronal loss in hippocampus as well as in other regions of the brain consequently leads to cognitive decline. Due to its role in protein translation and cell fate determination, PKR-like endoplasmic reticulum kinase (PERK) arm of the Endoplasmic Reticulum (ER) ...
Investigation of diabetes-induced effect on apex of rat heart myocardium by using cluster analysis and neural network approach: An FTIR study
Toyran, Neslihan; Severcan, Feride; Severcan, Mete; Turan, Belma (Hindawi Limited, 2007)
Diabetes mellitus (DM) is a progressive chronic disorder, which affects people belonging to all age groups of the population. This disease is accompanied by a greatly increased risk of cardiovascular death. In the present study, the effects of streptozotocin (STZ)-induced type 1 diabetes on apex myocardium of the rat heart have been investigated using Fourier Transform Infrared (FTIR) spectra. The cluster analysis has been applied to FTIR spectra to differentiate the diabetic samples from the normal control...
