Exosomes are involved in iron transport from human blood-brain barrier endothelial cells and are modified by endothelial cell iron status

Kondaiah Palsa et al.

Summary: Iron is vital for brain development and function. This study investigated the role of exosomes in transporting iron across the blood-brain barrier endothelial cells (BBBECs). The results showed that iron activity in the exosome fraction was higher than in the supernatant fraction. The release of exosomes containing iron was regulated by the iron concentration in the endothelial cells and was independent of hepcidin regulation.

Dynamics of Nigral Iron Accumulation in Parkinson's Disease: From Diagnosis to Late Stage

Guangwei Du et al.

Summary: Higher nigral iron has been reported in Parkinson's disease (PD) patients. Nigral iron is lower before the start of dopaminergic medication and then increases throughout the disease until it plateaus at late stages. PD medications may have differential associations with iron accumulation that need further investigation.

Astrocyte-derived hepcidin controls iron traffic at the blood-brain-barrier via regulating ferroportin 1 of microvascular endothelial cells

Linhao You et al.

Summary: Brain iron dysregulation associated with aging is closely related to motor and cognitive impairments in neurodegenerative diseases. The study reveals that astrocytes regulate iron transport into the brain by controlling the expression of FPN1 in brain microvascular endothelial cells (BMVECs) through the secretion of hepcidin. The results provide potential therapeutic targets for iron dysregulation-related neurological diseases.

Regulation of brain iron uptake by apo- and holo-transferrin is dependent on sex and delivery protein

Stephanie L. Baringer et al.

Summary: This study demonstrates the significant regulatory effects of apo- and holo-transferrin on brain iron uptake, which is influenced by both sex and type of iron delivery protein. The microvasculature acts as a reservoir of iron and releases it in response to cues from the brain interstitial fluid. These findings are important for understanding the regulation of brain iron uptake and drug delivery in disease treatment.
