CellA C-terminal signal prevents secretion of luminal ER proteins
2,214 Citations1987Sean Munro, Hugh R.B. Pelham
It is proposed that the KDEL sequence marks proteins that are to be retained in the ER and discuss possible retention mechanisms.

PubMedThe establishment of a cell line of human hormone-synthesizing trophoblastic cells in vitro.
573 Citations1968Roland A. Pattillo, George O. Gey
A human hormone-synthesizing trophoblastic cell system has been established in vitro and may prove to be the first functional human embryonic cell line in continuous culture and is being stabilized in serial cultivation.

507 Citations1987Stuart Kornfeld
Two distinct mannose 6‐phosphate receptors have been identified, and cDNAs encoding their entire sequences have been cloned, and an analysis of the deduced amino acid sequences of the receptors shows that each is composed of four structural domains: a signal sequence, an extracytoplasmic amino‐terminal domain, a hydrophobic membrane‐spanning region, and a cytopLasmic domain.
The Journal of Cell BiologyA glycophospholipid membrane anchor acts as an apical targeting signal in polarized epithelial cells.
478 Citations1989Michael P. Lisanti, Ingrid W. Caras +2 more
Delivery of the 37-amino acid DAF signal for GPI attachment to the ectodomain of herpes simplex glycoprotein D and to human growth hormone by recombinant DNA methods resulted in delivery of the fusion proteins to the apical surface of transfected MDCK cells consistent with the notion that the GPI anchoring mechanism may convey apical targeting information.
ScienceMechanism of Membrane Anchoring Affects Polarized Expression of Two Proteins in MDCK Cells
377 Citations1989Deborah A. Brown, Bruce Crise +1 more
The mechanism of membrane anchorage can determine the sorting of proteins to the apical or basolateral surface, and the GPI anchor itself may provide an apical transport signal.
Journal of Biological ChemistryRat ceruloplasmin. Molecular cloning and gene expression in liver, choroid plexus, yolk sac, placenta, and testis.
122 Citations1987Angela R. Aldred, Andrew Grimes +2 more
Extrahepatic ceruloplasmin gene expression was observed in choroid plexus, yolk sac, placenta, and testis, suggesting that these tissues are at the interface between, and possibly involved in maintaining homeostasis in, adjacent extracellular compartments.
The Journal of Cell BiologyApical and basolateral transferrin receptors in polarized BeWo cells recycle through separate endosomes.
73 Citations1991D.P. Cerneus, Arie van der Ende
The trophoblast-like BeWo cell line can serve as a unique model to compare the apical and basolateral endocytic pathways of a single ligand, transferrin, in polarized epithelial cells.
Journal of Biological ChemistryHuman ceruloplasmin. Tissue-specific expression of transcripts produced by alternative splicing.
65 Citations1990Feifei Yang, William E. Friedrichs +5 more
Examination of genomic DNA demonstrates that the two CP mRNAs are produced from a single gene by alternative spliced patterns, and predicts that alternative RNA splicing may lead to the differential expression of CP genomic sequences and produce alternate isoforms from asingle CP gene in specific tissues.
Journal of Biological ChemistryIron metabolism in BeWo chorion carcinoma cells. Transferrin-mediated uptake and release of iron.
62 Citations1987Arie van der Ende, A du Maine +3 more
A model for the release of iron by BeWo cells and its implication for transplacental iron transport is discussed and in the absence of added chelators iron is released as a low molecular weight complex, whereas in the presence of chelator the iron is found complexed to the chelator.
PlacentaReview article: Regulatory aspects of placental iron transfer—a comparative study
54 Citations1988J.P. van Dijk
The results obtained from studying placental maturation suggest that a possible long-term regulatory interaction between growing placenta and fetus may occur, and the relatively moderate reductions in the fetal iron stores which are generally associated with severe iron-deficient pregnancies might be seen as an argument in favour of long- term placental control.
Biochemical JournalCopper metabolism in mottled mouse mutants. Defective placental transfer of 64Cu to foetal brindled (<i>Mo</i> <i>br</i>) mice
41 Citations1980Jeff Mann, J. Camakaris +1 more
The severity of impairment and the degree of retention and accumulation of 64Cu in the placenta was not as great as has been previously observed in the gut of the suckling Mobr/Y mice.
PlacentaTransferrin receptors in the basal plasma membrane of the human placental syncytiotrophoblast
39 Citations1986Oluseyi A. Vanderpuye, Lucky K. Kelley +1 more
It is concluded that syncytiotrophoblast basal plasma membrane possesses a receptor similar, if not identical, to that on the microvillous membrane and these receptors are thus in a position to participate in iron transfer to the fetus or potentially to have alternative functions in the syncyTiotrophicoblast.
PlacentaUptake and processing of 125I-labelled transferrin and 59Fe-labelled transferrin by isolated human trophoblast cells
33 Citations1990Gordon C. Douglas, Barry F. King
59Fe release from trophoblast cells exceeded the release of lactate dehydrogenase and also exceeded therelease of 59Fe from 3T3 fibroblasts, suggesting a cell-specific process.
Cell Biochemistry and FunctionRole of transferrin in iron transport between maternal and fetal circulations of a perfused lobule of human placenta
32 Citations1986S.F. Contractor, B.M. Eaton
It is concluded that the initial stages of iron transfer to the fetus involve the internalization of maternal iron‐saturated transferrin bound to membrane receptors by receptor‐mediated endocytosis, which can be inhibited by the drug chloroquine.
FEBS LettersThe expression of genes coding for positive acute‐phase proteins in the reproductive tract of the female rat
27 Citations1989Tim Thomas, Gerhard Schreiber
High levels of ceruloplasmin mRNA were measured in the uterus of both pregnant and non‐pregnant rats, suggesting synthesis of plasma proteins with a protective function in the decidua or uterus may be important in maintaining homeostasis at different stages of reproduction.
Molecular and Cellular BiochemistryTransferrin receptor expression and the regulation of placental iron uptake
25 Citations1991Marc Bierings, Miranda R.M. Baert +2 more
Though the level of transferrin receptors in cultured normal trophoblast is at a constant level, unaffected by differentiation, high levels of maternal transferrin-iron availability can lead to a decrease in placental iron uptake, which makes placentalIron uptake independent of maternal iron stores.
Biological Trace Element ResearchThe metabolism of metals in rat placenta
18 Citations1988Albert Mas, Bibudhendra Sarkar
The status and transfer of metals across the rat placenta were studied by subcellular and molecular fractionations of this organ at 2 and 24 h after iv injection of radiolabeled metals.
Anatomy and EmbryologyPlacental iron transfer regulation in the haemophagous region of the badger placenta: ultrastructural localization of ferritin in trophoblast and endothelial cells
11 Citations1992B. Dumartin, R Canivenc
It is demonstrated that this regulatory process of iron transfer by storage in placental ferritin occurs on at least two levels: the cytotrophoblast and the fetal endothelium and the latter could then act as a final monitor in the transfer of iron into the fetal circulation.
