| Abstract | Heme iron is found in the diet mainly in the form of hemoglobin and myoglobin. It is known that heme iron (heme-Fe) and inorganic iron are absorbed differently. Intracellularly, heme oxygenase-1 (HO1) participates in the cleavage of the heme ring producing biliverdin, CO and ferrous iron. Iron released from heme becomes part of labile iron pool, and it can be stored in ferritin or released through the basolateral membrane. The mechanism by which heme-Fe is metabolized within cells is not completely understood.This study focused on the uptake and transport of heme iron and on the role of heme oxygenase-1 on heme iron metabolism.Caco-2 cells were incubated with different concentrations of heme-Fe. A full-length heme oxygenase-1 cDNA was expressed in Caco-2 cells and intracellular iron and heme-Fe content, heme uptake, heme and iron transport and heme oxygenase-1 immunolocalization were assessed in these cells.Heme-Fe was bioavailable and induced an intracellular increase in iron, ferritin and HO1 levels and a decrease in DMT1 expression. In cells overexpressing HO1, heme-Fe uptake and transepithelial Fe transport was higher than in controls. Most heme-Fe was metabolized to free iron, most of which was found mainly in the basolateral chamber. However, there is a fraction of heme that is delivered intact to the basolateral side. In a high heme-Fe condition, HO1 is found near the plasma membrane.These results suggest that heme oxygenase-1 catabolizes most of the heme-Fe and favors iron influx and efflux in intestinal cells. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
Ministry of Education, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT), has sponsored and funded the National Digital Library of India (NDLI) project.
