    Abstract Purpose of review: Terminal differentiation of erythropoietic progenitors requires the rapid accumulation of large amounts of iron, which is transported to the mitochondria, where it is incorporated into heme. Ferritin is the sole site of iron storage present in the cytosol. Yet the role of iron accumulation into ferritin in the context of red cell development had not been clearly defined. Early studies indicated that at the onset of terminal differentiation, iron initially accumulates in ferritin and precedes heme synthesis. Whether this accumulation is physiologically important for red cell development was unclear until recent studies defined an obligatory pathway of iron flux through ferritin.
    Recent findings: The iron chaperone functions of poly rC-binding protein 1 (PCBP1) and the autophagic cargo receptor for ferritin, nuclear co-activator 4 (NCOA4) are required for the flux of iron through ferritin in developing red cells. In the absence of these functions, iron delivery to mitochondria for heme synthesis is impaired.
    Summary: The regulated trafficking of iron through ferritin is important for maintaining a consistent flow of iron to mitochondria without releasing potentially damaging redox-active species in the cell. Other components of the iron trafficking machinery are likely to be important in red cell development.

    Abstract Post-transcriptional regulation of cytokine production is crucial to ensure appropriate immune responses. We previously demonstrated that poly-rC-binding protein-1 (PCBP1) can act as a trans-acting factor to stabilize transcripts encoding sortilin, which mediates cytokine trafficking. Here, we report that PCBP2, which strongly resembles PCBP1, can stabilize sortilin transcripts in macrophages using the same mechanism employed by PCBP1. PCBP2 recognized the C-rich element in the 3' UTR of sortilin mRNA, and PCBP2 knockdown decreased sortilin transcripts, indicating that PCBP2 stabilizes sortilin mRNA by binding to its 3' UTR. Zn

    Abstract: ... on the major iron chaperone protein coordinating the labile iron pool: poly C-binding protein 1. ...

    Abstract Iron-containing proteins rely on the incorporation of a set of iron cofactors for activity. The cofactors must be synthesized or assembled from raw materials located within the cell. The chemical nature of this pool of raw material - referred to as the labile iron pool - has become clearer with the identification of micro- and macro-molecules that coordinate iron within the cell. These molecules function as a buffer system for the management of intracellular iron and are the focus of this review, with emphasis on the major iron chaperone protein coordinating the labile iron pool: poly C-binding protein 1.

    Abstract Mammalian cells contain thousands of metalloproteins and have evolved sophisticated systems for ensuring that metal cofactors are correctly assembled and delivered to their proper destinations. Equally critical in this process are the strategies to avoid the insertion of the wrong metal cofactor into apo-proteins and to avoid the damage that redox-active metals can catalyze in the cellular milieu. Iron and zinc are the most abundant metal cofactors in cells and iron cofactors include heme, iron-sulfur clusters, and mono- and dinuclear iron centers. Systems for the intracellular trafficking of iron cofactors are being characterized. This review focuses on the trafficking of ferrous iron cofactors in the cytosol of mammalian cells, a process that involves specialized iron-binding proteins, termed iron chaperones, of the poly rC-binding protein family.

    Abstract Cells express hundreds of iron-dependent enzymes that rely on the iron cofactors heme, iron-sulfur clusters, and mono-or di-nuclear iron centers for activity. Cells require systems for both the assembly and the distribution of iron cofactors to their cognate enzymes. Proteins involved in the binding and trafficking of iron ions in the cytosol, called cytosolic iron chaperones, have been identified and characterized in mammalian cells. The first identified iron chaperone, poly C-binding protein 1 (PCBP1), has also been studied in mice using genetic models of conditional deletion in tissues specialized for iron handling. Studies of iron trafficking in mouse tissues have necessitated the development of new approaches, which have revealed new roles for PCBP1 in the management of cytosolic iron. These approaches can be applied to investigate use of other nutrient metals in mammals.

    Abstract Iron is an essential nutrient required by all cells but used primarily for red blood cell production. Because humans have no effective mechanism for ridding the body of excess iron, the absorption of dietary iron must be precisely regulated. The critical site of regulation is the transfer of iron from the absorptive enterocyte to the portal circulation via the sole iron efflux transporter, ferroportin. Here, we report that poly(rC)-binding protein 1 (PCBP1), the major cytosolic iron chaperone, is necessary for the regulation of iron flux through ferroportin in the intestine of mice. Mice lacking PCBP1 in the intestinal epithelium exhibit low levels of enterocyte iron, poor retention of dietary iron in enterocyte ferritin, and excess efflux of iron through ferroportin. Excess iron efflux occurred despite lower levels of ferroportin protein in enterocytes and upregulation of the iron regulatory hormone hepcidin. PCBP1 deletion and the resulting unregulated dietary iron absorption led to poor growth, severe anemia on a low-iron diet, and liver oxidative stress with iron loading on a high-iron diet. Ex vivo culture of PCBP1-depleted enteroids demonstrated no defects in hepcidin-mediated ferroportin turnover. However, measurement of kinetically labile iron pools in enteroids competent or blocked for iron efflux indicated that PCBP1 functioned to bind and retain cytosolic iron and limit its availability for ferroportin-mediated efflux. Thus, PCBP1 coordinates enterocyte iron and reduces the concentration of unchaperoned "free" iron to a low level that is necessary for hepcidin-mediated regulation of ferroportin activity.

    Abstract Background: Vitamin E (vit E) is an essential nutrient that functions as a lipophilic antioxidant and is used clinically to treat nonalcoholic fatty liver disease, where it suppresses oxidative damage and impedes the progression of steatosis and fibrosis. Mice lacking a critical liver iron-trafficking protein also manifest steatosis because of iron-mediated oxidative damage and are protected from liver disease by oral vit E supplements.
    Objectives: We aimed to examine the role of dietary vit E supplementation in modulating iron-sensing regulatory systems and nonheme iron levels in mouse liver.
    Methods: C57Bl/6 male mice, aged 6 wk, were fed purified diets containing normal amounts of iron and either control (45 mg/kg) or elevated (450 mg/kg) levels of 2R-α-tocopherol (vit E) for 18 d. Mouse plasma and liver were analyzed for nonheme iron, levels and activity of iron homeostatic proteins, and markers of oxidative stress. We compared means ± SD for iron and oxidative stress parameters between mice fed the control diet and those fed the vit E diet.
    Results: The Vit E-fed mice exhibited lower levels of liver nonheme iron (38% reduction, P < 0.0001) and ferritin (74% reduction, P < 0.01) than control-fed mice. The levels of liver mRNA for transferrin receptor 1 and divalent metal transporter 1 were reduced to 42% and 57% of the control, respectively. The mRNA levels for targets of nuclear factor erythroid 2-related factor (Nrf2), a major regulator of the oxidative stress response and iron-responsive genes, were also suppressed in vit E livers. Hepcidin, an iron regulatory hormone, levels were lower in the plasma (P < 0.05), and ferroportin (FPN), the iron exporter regulated by hepcidin, was expressed at higher levels in the liver (P < 0.05).
    Conclusions: Oral vit E supplementation in mice can lead to depletion of liver iron stores by suppressing the iron- and redox-sensing transcription factor Nrf2, leading to enhanced iron efflux through liver FPN. Iron depletion may indirectly enhance the antioxidative effects of vit E.
