https://www.selleckchem.com/products/tefinostat.html The QSAR model is available at the QsarDB repository (http//dx.doi.10.15152/QDB.237).The posttranslational regulation of transferrin receptor (TfR1) is largely unknown. We investigated whether iron availability affects TfR1 endocytic cycle and protein stability in HepG2 hepatoma cells exposed to ferric ammonium citrate (FAC). NH4Cl and bafilomycin A1, but not the proteasomal inhibitor MG132, prevented the FAC-mediated decrease in TfR1 protein levels, thus indicating lysosomal involvement. Knockdown experiments showed that TfR1 lysosomal degradation is independent of 1) endocytosis mediated by the clathrin adaptor AP2; 2) Tf, which was suggested to facilitate TfR1 internalization; 3) H-ferritin; and 4) MARCH8, previously implicated in TfR1 degradation. Notably, FAC decreased the number of TfR1 molecules at the cell surface and increased the Tf endocytic rate. Colocalization experiments confirmed that, upon FAC treatment, TfR1 was endocytosed in an AP2- and Tf-independent pathway and trafficked to the lysosome for degradation. This unconventional endocytic regulatory mechanism aimed at reducing surface TfR1 may represent an additional posttranslational control to prevent iron overload. Our results show that iron is a key regulator of the trafficking of TfR1, which has been widely used to study endocytosis, often not considering its function in iron homeostasis.Stem cell and tissue engineering-based therapies for acute liver failure (ALF) have been limited by the lack of an optimal cell source. We aimed to determine the suitability of human parthenogenetic embryonic stem cells (hPESCs) for the development of strategies to treat ALF. We studied the ability of human parthenogenetic embryonic stem cells (hPESCs) with high whole-genome SNP homozygosity, which were obtained by natural activation during in vitro fertilization (IVF), to differentiate into functional hepatocyte-like cells in vitro by monolayer plane orientat
