Abstract:
Transferrin is an essential growth factor for African trypanosomes. Here we show that expression of the trypanosomal transferrin receptor, which bears no structural similarity with mammalian transferrin receptors, is regulated by iron availability. Iron depletion of bloodstream forms of Trypanosoma brucei with the iron chelator deferoxamine resulted in a 3-fold up-regulation of the transferrin receptor and a 3-fold increase of the transferrin uptake rate. The abundance of expression site associated gene product 6 (ESAG6) mRNA, which encodes one of the two subunits of the trypanosome transferrin receptor, is regulated 5-fold by a post-transcriptional mechanism. In mammalian cells the stability of transferrin receptor mRNA is controlled by iron regulatory proteins (IRPs) binding to iron-responsive elements (IREs) in the 3′-untranslated region (UTR). Therefore, the role of a T. brucei cytoplasmic aconitase (TbACO) that is highly related to mammalian IRP-1 was investigated. Iron regulation of the transferrin receptor was found to be unaffected in δaco::NEO/δaco::HYG null mutants generated by targeted disruption of the TbACO gene. Thus, the mechanism of post-transcriptional transferrin receptor regulation in trypanosomes appears to be distinct from the IRE/IRP paradigm. The transferrin uptake rate was also increased when trypanosomes were transferred from medium supplemented with foetal bovine serum to medium supplemented with sera from other vertebrates. Due to varying binding affinities of the trypanosomal transferrin receptor for transferrins of different species, serum change can result in iron starvation. Thus, regulation of transferrin receptor expression may be a fast compensatory mechanism upon transmission of the parasite to a new host species.

Abstract:
During endochondral bone formation, avascular cartilage differentiates to hypertrophic cartilage that then undergoes erosion and vascularization leading to bone deposition. Resting cartilage produces inhibitors of angiogenesis, shifting to production of angiogenic stimulators in hypertrophic cartilage. A major protein synthesized by hypertrophic cartilage both in vivo and in vitro is transferrin. Here we show that transferrin is a major angiogenic molecule released by hypertrophic cartilage. Endothelial cell migration and invasion is stimulated by transferrins from a number of different sources, including hypertrophic cartilage. Checkerboard analysis demonstrates that transferrin is a chemotactic and chemokinetic molecule. Chondrocyte-conditioned media show similar properties. Polyclonal anti-transferrin antibodies completely block endothelial cell migration and invasion induced by purified transferrin and inhibit the activity produced by hypertrophic chondrocytes by 50–70% as compared with controls. Function-blocking mAbs directed against the transferrin receptor similarly reduce the endothelial migratory response. Chondrocytes differentiating in the presence of serum produce transferrin, whereas those that differentiate in the absence of serum do not. Conditioned media from differentiated chondrocytes not producing transferrin have only 30% of the endothelial cell migratory activity of parallel cultures that synthesize transferrin. The angiogenic activity of transferrins was confirmed by in vivo assays on chicken egg chorioallantoic membrane, showing promotion of neovascularization by transferrins purified from different sources including conditioned culture medium. Based on the above results, we suggest that transferrin is a major angiogenic molecule produced by hypertrophic chondrocytes during endochondral bone formation.

Abstract:
Transferrins are a superfamily of iron-binding proteins and are recognized as multifunctional proteins. In the present study, transcriptomic and proteomic methods were used to identify transferrins in the reproductive organs and sperm of out-of-spawning and spermiating sterlet (Acipenser ruthenus) males. The results showed that seven transferrin transcripts were identified in the transcriptome of sterlet, and these transcripts were qualified as two different transferrin genes, serotransferrin and melanotransferrin, with several isoforms present for serotransferrin. The relative abundance of serotransferrin isoforms was higher in the kidneys and Wolffian ducts in the spermiating males compared to out-of-spawning males. In addition, transferrin was immunodetected in sterlet seminal plasma, but not in sterlet spermatozoa extract. Mass spectrometry identification of transferrin in seminal plasma but not in spermatozoa corroborates immunodetection. The identification of transferrin in the reproductive organs and seminal plasma of sterlet in this study provides the potential function of transferrin during sturgeon male reproduction.

Abstract:
The interaction between ruminant transferrins and receptor proteins on the surface of the ruminant pathogens Pasteuerella haemolytica, Haemophilus somnus, Pasteurella multocida, Haemophilus agnii, and Moraxella bovis was evaluated by a combination of binding assays and affinity isolation procedures. Membranes isolated from P. haemolytica, P. multocida, and H. agnii were capable of binding sheep, goat, and cattle transferrins whereas binding by membranes from H. somnus and M. bovis was specific for bovine transferrin. Proteolytically derived bovine transferrin C-lobe was capable of inhibiting the interaction between bovine transferrin and both Tbpl and Tbp2 from P. haemolytica and M. bovis but only Tbpl from H. somnus and P. multocida. Proteolytically derived N-lobe inhibited the binding of P. multocida and H. somnus Tbp2 to bovine transferrin and the binding of bovine transferrin to the single receptor protein identified in H. agnii. The implications of these results regarding the nature of the ligand–receptor interaction and similarities of this interaction with ligand–receptor interactions in different species are discussed.Key words: iron acquisition, transferrin receptor, binding specificity, Pasteurella, ruminants.

Abstract:
L’érythropoïèse est un processus extrêmement prolifératif, et qui doit donc être très étroitement régulé. L’érythropoïétine (EPO) est l’un des facteurs absolument nécessaires à l’érythropoïèse. Cependant, dans la moelle osseuse, la quantité d'EPO circulante est sous-optimale et la capacité des érythroblastes à survivre dépend donc de leur sensibilité à l'EPO. Les facteurs modulant la réponse à l'EPO au cours de l'érythropoïèse sont encore largement inconnus.Nous avons donc voulu explorer plusieurs facteurs pouvant potentiellement être impliqués dans la régulation de l’érythropoïèse et plus précisément dans la réponse à l’EPO : tout d’abord, la transferrine ainsi que ses récepteurs (TfR), la transferrine et le TfR1 étant également essentiels à l’érythropoïèse, ainsi qu’un phytoestrogène provenant d’une plante nommée Curcuma comosa, les oestrogènes étant eux aussi connus pour favoriser l’érythropoïèse.Concernant la transferrine, nous avons voulu principalement explorer son rôle sur la signalisation, ayant récemment montré au laboratoire que le TfR1, essentiellement connu pour son rôle dans l’endocytose du fer, est également capable d’entraîner une signalisation.Nous avons montré que la transferrine potentialise la stimulation induite par l’EPO des voies ERK, AKT et STAT5. Cet effet est conservé même en l’absence d’endocytose du TfR1. Aucune coopération n’a été trouvée entre la transferrine et le stem cell factor (SCF).Nous avons également observé qu’en l’absence du TfR2, il existe une augmentation de l’expression de l’EPO-R et de la signalisation induite par l’EPO, sans impact de la transferrine dans ce contexte. Par ailleurs, nous avons montré que le Curcuma comosa améliore la prolifération et la différenciation des progéniteurs érythroïdes précoces, par un mécanisme de potentialisation de la signalisation induite par l’EPO impliquant le récepteur aux oestrogènes ER-α.En conclusion, la transferrine et ses récepteurs, ainsi qu’un phytoestrogène et l’ER-α, sont impliqués dans la régulation de l’érythropoïèse via leur action sur la signalisation induite par l’EPO. L’approfondissement de ces données pourrait ouvrir de nouvelles pistes thérapeutiques dans le traitement de l’anémie
Erythropoiesis is an extremely proliferative process and must be very closely regulated. Erythropoietin (EPO) is one of the major factors necessary for erythropoiesis. However, in the bone marrow, the amount of circulating EPO is suboptimal and the ability of erythroblasts to survive therefore depends on their sensitivity to EPO. The factors modulating the response to EPO during erythropoiesis are still largely unknown. We therefore wanted to explore several factors that could potentially be involved in the regulation of erythropoiesis and more specifically in the response to EPO: first, transferrin and its receptors (TfR), transferrin and TfR1 being also essential for erythropoiesis, as well as a phytoestrogen from a plant called Curcuma comosa, as estrogens are also known to promote erythropoiesis. Regarding transferrin, we mainly wanted to explore its role on signaling, having recently shown in the laboratory that TfR1, essentially known for its role in iron endocytosis, is a signaling-competent receptor. We have shown that transferrin potentiates EPO-induced stimulation of the ERK, AKT and STAT5 pathways. This effect is maintained even in the absence of TfR1 endocytosis. No cooperation was found between transferrin and stem cell factor (SCF). We also observed that in the absence of TfR2, there is an increase in EPO-R expression and EPO-induced signaling, without any impact of transferrin in this context.In addition, we have shown that Curcuma comosa improves the proliferation and differentiation of early erythroid progenitors through a mechanism involving the ER-α estrogen receptor, able to potentiate EPO-induced signaling. In conclusion, transferrin and its receptors, as well as a phytoestrogen and ER-α, are involved in the regulation of erythropoiesis through their action on EPO-induced signaling. Further investigation of these data could provide new therapeutic strategies in the treatment of anemia

Abstract:
There is a well-established connection between anomalous protein aggregates and disease, exemplified by the amyloidoses. Many neurological disorders such as Al heimer’s and Parkinson’s disease also show increased concentrations of iron deposits along with protein fibres. The increased metal concentrations observed in these instances have yet to be fully understood or explained. The research in this thesis is concerned with the aggregation of the protein transferrin, especially on surfaces. Human serum transferrin is an ~80 kDa iron-transporting glycoprotein found at 35 μM in the blood. It is also the body’s generic metal transporter, not only of the “natural” metals iron and manganese but also of metals used to detect or treat disease such as gallium and ruthenium. It has recently been reported from this laboratory that some batches of human serum transferrin can form fibrils on surfaces. This appeared to occur preferentially at lower salt and protein concentrations. The fibres exhibited a distinctive subunit structure with a consistent width of ca. 200 nm, and dark periodic striations along the length of the fibres apparently due to deposition of ferric (oxy)hydroxo mineral, lepidocrocite. The ability of human serum transferrin and recombinant (largely deglycosylated) transferrin to form fibres on surfaces has been investigated. Batches which formed fibres appeared to have normal primary, secondary and tertiary structures, and iron-binding properties, as determined by UV-visible and circular dichroism, spectroscopy, isothermal titration calorimetry, and ion-mobility-mass spectrometry. Dye binding experiments in solution suggested that classical amyloid fibres are not formed in solution. However, investigations of gas-phase conformations of transferrin from fibre-forming solutions, by ion mobility mass spectrometry, revealed an intrinsic transferrin dimer and higher order structures. These were separated by chromatography. Dimeric and monomeric transferrin were imaged on surfaces using transmission electron microscopy and atomic force microscopy. Only the dimer yielded structured aggregates, circular subunits composed of transferrin fibres. Dynamic light scattering and polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis further confirmed the presence of higher order structures in solution. Hence dimerisation of transferrin appears to trigger the initiation formation of fibrils possibly by pre-ordering of the protein in solution. Further atomic force microscopy analysis of deposited transferrin on mica surfaces by atomic force microscopy revealed the deformation (flattening) of the protein perhaps indicating structural flexibility that may be important for fibril formation. Some long, thin fibrils with distinct curvature were detectable by AFM. This appears to support the hypothesis that many proteins can exhibit fibril-like behaviour under specific conditions. If transferrin aggregation can occur when the protein is deposited on natural surfaces in the body, these findings may have important implications for certain physiological disorders including neurological conditions and lead to new treatments.

Ao final da gestação o neonato deve estar preparado, por meio de modificações funcionais e estruturais de órgãos e sistemas para dar início à vida extra-uterina. Os animais prematuros nascem antes deste processo estar completo, apresentando falhas na maturação. O objetivo deste estudo foi tentar identificar por meio da técnica de eletroforese em gel de poliacrilamida em dodecil sulfato de sódio (SDS-PAGE) proteínas de fase aguda, dentre elas, albumina, ceruloplasmina, transferrina, haptoglobina, glicoproteína ácida e imunoglobulinas A e G, que possam indicar a maturação no neonato prematuro. Os cordeiros foram divididos em seis grupos experimentais (parto normal, cesárea a termo, cesárea prematura, cesárea prematura com administração pré-parto materna de dexametasona, cesárea com administração de surfactante nos prematuros e cesárea prematura com administração pré-parto materna de dexametasona e surfactante ao neonato). Os resultados indicaram que após a administração de colostro, independente do tratamento, os valores séricos de proteína total e imunoglobulinas G aumentaram, indicando que há transferência de imunidade passiva através do trato gastrointestinal.

The lambs were divided into six experimental groups (normal birth, full-term cesarean section at normal time of gestation, premature cesarean section, premature cesarean section whose mothers received prepartum dexamethasone, cesarean section giving surfactante to the prematures and premature cesarean giving prepartum dexamethasone to the mothers and surfactant to the neonate). The results indicated that after administration of colostrum, regardless of treatment, total serum protein and immunoglobulins increased, showing the transfer of passive immunity through the gastrointestinal tract. Transferrin has higher levels in animals with higher gestational age, demonstrating potential as a marker of neonatal maturation.

Abstract:
Helminthic parasites have evolved with immune modulating machinery to manipulate their host's immune response and thus survive unscathed for years and in some cases even decades. However, the underlying molecular mechanisms governing the host-parasite relationship are still largely unknown. Therefore detailed investigation and evaluation of parasitic molecules is desirable. One such molecule worthy of attention is IPSE/a-1 (lnterleukin-4 inducing principle from schistosome eggs). IPSE/a-1 is a secretory glycoprotein produced exclusively by the egg stage of Schistosoma mansoni, which activates human basophils in non-antigen specific IgE dependent mechanisn;t. Sequence analyses of IPSE/a-1 using bioinformatic subcellular localisation prediction tools revealed a putative nuclear localisation signal (NLS) at the C-terminus. The present work was conducted to confirm whether this sequence ('125-PKRRRTY-131') was both necessary and sufficient for nuclear localisation of IPSE/a-1 and other heterologous GFP proteins. A plasmid encoding EGFP-IPSE/a-1, as well as a truncated mutant lacking amino acids 125-134, was transfected into Huh7 and U2-0S cell lines, and fluorescence of the fusion protein was determined by confocal laser scanning microscopy. EGFP-IPSE/a-1 was found to be exclusively nuclear, whereas the mutant displayed both nuclear and cytoplasmic staining. Furthermore, insertion of the IPSE/a-1 NLS into a tetra-EGFP construct showed nuclear localisation, and alanine scanning mutagenesis revealed a requirement for the KRRR residues. IPSE/a-l also binds to transferrin, which lead to downstream effect on cellular proliferation. Besides, fluorescence microscopy revealed that recombinant IPSE/a-l protein added exogenously to culture medium was internalized by variant Chinese hamster ovary (CRO) cells expressing the human transferrin receptor and was found in the nuclei of these cells Western blotting further confirmed this temporal relocalisation of IPSE/a-l from cytosolic to nuclear fractions. In addition, IPSE/a-l exhibited a DNA-binding activity that appeared to be dependent on the C-terminal NLS sequence. In summary, the main achievement of this work is the identification and characterization of a NLS in IPSE/a-l that is functional in mammalian cells, which will form the basis for further investigations into the biological significance of this nuclear targeting and DNA interaction e.g. IPSE/a-l may function as transcription factor in the nucleus. The properties of IPSE/a-l described here also make it an interesting potential vehicle for intracellular and nuclear drug delivery.
