... and promoting chondrogenesis in condylar growth is vital for treatment of SMH patients. Transferrin (TF) was highly expressed in condylar cartilage of newborn mice and was gradually declined as the condyle ceased growing. Interestingly, serum level of TF in SMH patients was significantly lower than normal...

...Amanda Loban; Robert Kime; Hilary Powers 1. The extracellular proteins caeruloplasmin and transferrin have important antioxidant properties by virtue of the fact that they inhibit iron-dependent free radical production, and ensuing damage to cells. 2. Albumin is a plasma protein which can loosely...

...G. M. Rocker; D. Pearson; M. Stephens; D. J. Shale 1. The accumulation in the lung of the plasma protein transferrin was determined in 44 patients with widespread pulmonary infiltrates of various causes and in 11 healthy volunteers using a double-isotope method based on labelling in vivo...

...N. J. Verhoef; P. J. Noordeloos 1. The binding of transferrin and the uptake of iron by rat bone-marrow-cell suspensions was investigated by the use of transferrin doubly labelled with 125 I and 59 Fe. 2. The pattern of transferrin binding was found to depend on the transferrin concentration...

...N. J. Verhoef; H. G. Van Eijk 1. Transferrin was isolated from umbilical cord blood by means of gel filtration on Sephadex G-150 and ion-exchange chromatography on DEAE-Sephadex A-50, and its properties were compared with those of transferrin isolated from human adult blood. 2. Both glycoproteins...

... and immunodiffusion experiments showed that this effect is the function of two serum protein fractions. 3. One fraction was identified as transferrin. The second fraction includes caeruloplasmin. 4. Studies with radioactively labelled α-tocopherol showed that serum tocopherol in the physiological concentration range...

...K.-L. Wong; P. A. Charlwood; M. W. C. Hatton; E. Regoeczi 1. Experiments are reported which aimed at determining whether transferrin loses sialyl residues from the carbohydrate side-chains during the biological lifetime of the molecule. To explore this possibility, transferrin fractions...

...C. H. W. Horne; P. G. Toner 1. A radial immunodiffusion technique was used to determine the concentrations of five rat serum proteins, slow α 1 - and α 2 -globulin, transferrin, albumin and γ 2 -globulin before and after the induction of immune complex nephritis. 2. Four weeks after immunization...
