Copper and iron metabolism have been known to interact for many years. We have previously shown, during pregnancy, that copper levels in the maternal liver rise as a consequence of iron deficiency, but that levels in the fetal liver decrease. In this paper, we measure expression of genes involved in copper metabolism in fetal and postnatal liver, to test whether alterations can explain this observation...
Micronutrients influence multiple metabolic pathways including oxidative and inflammatory processes. Optimum micronutrient supply is important for the maintenance of homeostasis in metabolism and, ultimately, for maintaining good health. With advances in systems biology and genomics technologies, it is becoming feasible to assess the activity of single and multiple micronutrients in their complete...
It is well established that Fe and ceruloplasmin interact in animals and in in vitro models. However, Fe-mediated regulation of ceruloplasmin has never been investigated in humans. In an observational study, 53 pregnant women aged 19–39 yr (29.8±0.7 yr, mean ± SEM) were recruited at the Aberdeen Antenatal Clinic, Aberdeen Maternity Hospital, UK. All requirements for local ethical committees were followed...
