TL;DR: This paper examines a few characteristics of iron chelators, with some emphasis on the effects of redox cycling, on absorption mechanisms and on some properties of the pFe.

TL;DR: A nonredundant role of VGF products in the regulation of energy storage and expenditure is implied, implying a non redundant roles in theregulation of energystorage and expenditure.
Abstract: 1. The vgf gene encodes a neuropeptide precursor with a restricted pattern of expression that is limited to a subset of neurons in the central and peripheral nervous systems and to specific populations of endocrine cells in the adenohypophysis, adrenal medulla, gastrointestinal tract, and pancreas. In responsive neurons, vgf transcription is upregulated by neurotrophins, the basis for the original identification of VGF as nerve growth factor- (NGF) inducible in PC12 cells (A. Levi, J. D. Eldridge, and B. M. Paterson, Science229:393–395, 1985).

TL;DR: It is shown that capsinoids also show remarkable antioxidant activity, and benign analogues of capsaicin could protect linoleic acid against free radical attack in simple in vitro systems, inhibiting both its autoxidation and its iron- or EDTA-mediated oxidation.
Abstract: Hot peppers are a good source of dietary antioxidants, encompassing, apart from widespread compounds (flavonoids, phenolic acids, carotenoids, vitamin A, ascorbic acid, tocopherols), also specific constituents such as the pungent capsaicinoids (capsaicin, dihydrocapsaicin, and related analogues). We have shown that capsinoids also show remarkable antioxidant activity. These benign analogues of capsaicin could protect linoleic acid against free radical attack in simple in vitro systems, inhibiting both its autoxidation and its iron- or EDTA-mediated oxidation. These properties were retained in some simple synthetic analogues (vanillyl nonanoate and its dimerization products). Capsiate, dihydrocapsiate, and their analogues were devoid of pro-oxidant activity and showed a highly significant antioxidant activity in all systems investigated. Vanillyl nonanoate, a simple capsinoid mimic, was also tested on cell cultures for cytotoxic activity and the capacity to inhibit FeCl(3)-induced oxidation.

TL;DR: It is found that a time-dependent regulation is effective for the sole A transport system (affecting the maximal velocity without substantial changes in K m ) and a comprehensive explanation for previously reported changes with time and intracellular substrate concentration of the kinetic parameters governing the uptake of the analogue.
