- Iron uptake and transport: The transport of iron between cells is mediated by transferrin. However, iron can also enter and leave cells not only by itself, but also in the form of heme and siderophores. When entering the cell via the main path (by transferrin endocytosis), its goal is not the (still elusive) chelated iron pool in the cytosol nor the lysosomes but the mitochondria, where heme is synthesized and iron-sulfur clusters are assembled (Kurz et al,2008, Hower et al 2009, Richardson et al 2010) [https://reactome.org/PathwayBrowser/#/R-HSA-917937]
- Metal ion SLC transporters: Six SLC gene families encode proteins which mediate transport of metals. The families are SLC11, SLC30, SLC31, SLC39, SLC40 and SLC41 (He L et al, 2009; Bressler JP et al, 2007) [https://reactome.org/PathwayBrowser/#/R-HSA-425410].
- Post-translational protein phosphorylation: Secretory pathway kinases phosphorylate a diverse array of substrates involved in many physiological processes [https://reactome.org/PathwayBrowser/#/R-HSA-8957275].
- Regulation of Insulin-like Growth Factor (IGF) transport and uptake by Insulin-like Growth Factor Binding Proteins (IGFBPs): The family of Insulin like Growth Factor Binding Proteins (IGFBPs) share 50% amino acid identity with conserved N terminal and C terminal regions responsible for binding Insulin like Growth Factors I and II (IGF I and IGF II). Most circulating IGFs are in complexes with IGFBPs, which are believed to increase the residence of IGFs in the body, modulate availability of IGFs to target receptors for IGFs, reduce insulin like effects of IGFs, and act as signaling molecules independently of IGFs. About 75% of circulating IGFs are in 1500 220 KDa complexes with IGFBP3 and ALS. Such complexes are too large to pass the endothelial barrier. The remaining 20 25% of IGFs are bound to other IGFBPs in 40 50 KDa complexes. IGFs are released from IGF:IGFBP complexes by proteolysis of the IGFBP. IGFs become active after release, however IGFs may also have activity when still bound to some IGFBPs. IGFBP1 is enriched in amniotic fluid and is produced in the liver under control of insulin (insulin suppresses production). IGFBP1 binding stimulates IGF function. It is unknown which if any protease degrades IGFBP1. IGFBP2 is enriched in cerebrospinal fluid; its binding inhibits IGF function. IGFBP2 is not significantly degraded in circulation. IGFB3, which binds most IGF in the body is enriched in follicular fluid and found in many other tissues. IGFBP 3 may be cleaved by plasmin, thrombin, Prostate specific Antigen (PSA, KLK3), Matrix Metalloprotease-1 (MMP1), and Matrix Metalloprotease-2 (MMP2). IGFBP3 also binds extracellular matrix and binding lowers its affinity for IGFs. IGFBP3 binding stimulates the effects of IGFs. IGFBP4 acts to inhibit IGF function and is cleaved by Pregnancy associated Plasma Protein A (PAPPA) to release IGF. IGFBP5 is enriched in bone matrix; its binding stimulates IGF function. IGFBP5 is cleaved by Pregnancy Associated Plasma Protein A2 (PAPPA2), ADAM9, complement C1s from smooth muscle, and thrombin. Only the cleavage site for PAPPA2 is known. IGFBP6 is enriched in cerebrospinal fluid. It is unknown which if any protease degrades IGFBP6 [https://reactome.org/PathwayBrowser/#/R-HSA-381426].
- Defective CP causes aceruloplasminemia (ACERULOP): Ceruloplasmin (CP), synthesised in the liver and secreted into plasma, is a copper-binding (6-7 atoms per molecule) glycoprotein involved in iron trafficking in vertebrates. CP is essential for SLC40A1 (ferroportin) stability at the cell surface, the protein that mediates iron efflux from cells. CP also possesses ferroxidase activity, which oxidises ferrous iron (Fe2+) to ferric iron (Fe3+) following its transfer out of the cell. Fe3+ can then be loaded on to extracellular transferrin which transports it around the body to sites where it is required. Iron is vital for many metabolic processes such as electron transport and the transport and storage of oxygen. Defects in CP (or indeed SLC40A1) can lead to the phenotype of iron overload as seen in the disorder aceruloplasminemia (ACERULOP; MIM:604290). It is a rare autosomal recessive disorder of iron metabolism characterised by iron accumulation mainly in the brain, but also in liver, pancreas and retina. Patients develop retinal degeneration, diabetes mellitus and neurological disturbance. ACERULOP belongs to a group of disorders known as NBIA (neurodegeneration with brain iron accumulation), distinguishing it from hereditary hemochromatosis (serum iron is high but the brain is usually not affected) and from disorders of copper metabolism such as Menkes and Wilson disease (Harris et al. 1995, Kono 2012, Musci et al. 2014) [https://reactome.org/PathwayBrowser/#/R-HSA-5619060].
- Defective SLC40A1 causes hemochromatosis 4 (HFE4) (macrophages): SLC40A1 (MTP1 aka ferroportin or IREG1) is highly expressed on macrophages where it mediates iron efflux from the breakdown of haem. SLC40A1 colocalises with ceruloplasmin (CP) which stablizes SLC40A1 and is necessary for the efflux reaction to occur. Six copper ions are required by ceruloplasmin as a cofactor. Defects in SLC40A1 can cause hemochromatosis 4 (HFE4; MIM:606069), a disorder of iron metabolism characterised by iron overload. Excess iron is deposited in a variety of organs leading to their failure, resulting in serious illnesses including cirrhosis, hepatomas, diabetes, cardiomyopathy, arthritis and hypogonadotropic hypogonadism. Severe effects of the disease don't usually appear until after decades of progressive iron overloading (De Domenico et al. 2005, 2006, 2011, Kaplan et al. 2011) [https://reactome.org/PathwayBrowser/#/R-HSA-5619049].

NCBI Gene Summary: The protein encoded by this gene is a metalloprotein that binds most of the copper in plasma and is involved in the peroxidation of Fe(II)transferrin to Fe(III) transferrin. Mutations in this gene cause aceruloplasminemia, which results in iron accumulation and tissue damage, and is associated with diabetes and neurologic abnormalities. Two transcript variants, one protein-coding and the other not protein-coding, have been found for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Feb 2012]
GeneCards Summary: CP (Ceruloplasmin) is a Protein Coding gene. Diseases associated with CP include Aceruloplasminemia and Hermansky-Pudlak Syndrome 3. Among its related pathways are Transport of inorganic cations/anions and amino acids/oligopeptides and Regulation of Insulin-like Growth Factor (IGF) transport and uptake by Insulin-like Growth Factor Binding Proteins (IGFBPs). Gene Ontology (GO) annotations related to this gene include oxidoreductase activity and copper ion binding. An important paralog of this gene is HEPHL1.
UniProtKB/Swiss-Prot Summary: Ceruloplasmin is a blue, copper-binding (6-7 atoms per molecule) glycoprotein. It has ferroxidase activity oxidizing Fe(2+) to Fe(3+) without releasing radical oxygen species. It is involved in iron transport across the cell membrane. Provides Cu(2+) ions for the ascorbate-mediated deaminase degradation of the heparan sulfate chains of GPC1. May also play a role in fetal lung development or pulmonary antioxidant defense.
Distinct positivity in plasma and extracellular matrix. Predicted location: Secreted, Intracellular (different isoforms) [https://www.proteinatlas.org/ENSG00000047457/subcellular]
- Results show that the increase in Cp mRNA is not due to increased transcript stability but rather is due to an increase in the rate of transcription as demonstrated by nuclear run-on experiments. Therefore, iron-deficient cells could increase Cp synthesis to maintain intracellular iron homeostasis, so that defects would lead to global accumulation of iron in tissues [PMID: 9445478].
- Data indicates that inflammation leads to a rapid increase in hepatic ceruloplasmin mRNA content. This increase is largely the result of increased ceruloplasmin gene transcription, but comparison of the relative rate of transcription and mRNA accumulation suggests that changes in ceruloplasmin mRNA turnover are also involved [PMID: 3360784].
- Based on detailed spectroscopic analyses, Cl- preferentially interacts with the partially reduced trinuclear Cu cluster (TNC) in Cp under physiological conditions and shifts the electron equilibrium distribution among the two redox active type 1 (T1) Cu sites and the TNC. This shift in potential enables the intramolecular electron transfer (IET) from the T1 Cu to the native intermediate (NI) and accelerates the IET from the T1 Cu to the TNC, resulting in faster turnover in Cp catalysis [PMID: 31203609].
Ceruloplasmin (Cp) gene dysregulation in kidney diseases and toxicities can be explained through its role in iron and copper homeostasis and its response to cellular stress [CS: 9]. When the kidney experiences toxic events, or the development of conditions like diabetic kidney disease (DKD), there is an increased production of harmful substances, like radical oxygen species, and disruptions in metal ion balance [CS: 9]. Cp, encoded by the CP gene, plays a crucial role in mitigating these effects [CS: 9].
In the context of DKD, where ferroptosis is involved, ceruloplasmin's function as a ferroxidase becomes crucial [CS: 8]. By oxidizing Fe(2+) to Fe(3+), Cp limits iron's capacity to generate harmful radicals, protecting the kidney cells from ferroptosis [CS: 9]. Similarly, in conditions where there's increased expression of Cp in response to inflammation or tissue damage, as seen in chronic exposure to toxins like depleted uranium, Cp aids in maintaining the balance of copper and iron [CS: 7]. This mechanism helps to counteract the toxic effects of such exposure, which often include oxidative stress and iron accumulation [CS: 8].
- Iron deficiency or hypoxia increased Cp gene expression as well as luciferase activity of the Cp promoter/enhancer with evidence of the involvement of hypoxia-inducible factor-1 (HIF-1) which showed HIF-1alpha and HIF-1beta binding to a radiolabeled oligonucleotide containing the Cp promoter hypoxia-responsive element (HRE) [PMID: 10777486].
- Peripheral nerve injury induces interleukin-6 (IL-6) expression and there are three IL-6 response elements in the upstream region of the Cp gene. Transfection of Cp-luciferase constructs followed by sequential and simultaneous mutation of the IL-6 response elements showing decreased luciferase activity, suggested that the IL-6 response elements may have a role in Cp upregulation [PMID: 15979198].
- In renal cell carcinoma (RCC) cells, epigenomic analyses of PAX8-dependent cistrome demonstrate that PAX8 largely occupies active enhancer elements controlling genes involved in various metabolic pathways. Functional genomic screens confirmed that PAX8 silencing leads to decreased proliferation of RCC cell lines. PAX8 recruits histone acetylation activity at bound enhancers looping onto the CP promoter and CP expression correlated with sensitivity to PAX8 silencing [PMID: 31431624].

- Aceruloplasminemia is an autosomal recessive disorder characterized by progressive neurodegeneration of the retina and basal ganglia associated with specific inherited mutations in the ceruloplasmin gene. Clinical and pathologic studies in patients with aceruloplasminemia revealed a marked accumulation of iron in affected parenchymal tissues. The precise physiologic role of ceruloplasmin has been defined by the recognition of individuals with diabetes, retinal degeneration, and neurologic symptoms in association with a total absence of serum ceruloplasmin [PMID: 9587138, PMID: 7820540, PMID: 7539672].
- Retinal degeneration in a patient with diagnosed as having hereditary ceruloplasmin deficiency was thought to be caused by the cellular iron deposition that occurred as a result of ceruloplasmin deficiency [PMID: 9438577].
- Gene expression of ceruloplasmin was measured in newborn rat lung and liver tissues with data indicating that lung is the predominant extrahepatic site of ceruloplasmin gene expression during fetal development and suggest that this protein may play a previously unappreciated role in lung development or pulmonary antioxidant defense [PMID: 2332446].
- Individuals with hereditary ceruloplasmin (Cp) deficiency have profound iron accumulation in most tissues, which suggests that Cp is important for normal release of cellular iron [PMID: 9445478].
- Ceruloplasmin is a ferroxidase that oxidizes toxic ferrous iron to its nontoxic ferric form. Adult Cp(-/-) mice showed increased iron deposition in several regions of the CNS such as the cerebellum and brainstem including increased lipid peroxidation was also seen in some CNS regions. Results indicate that ceruloplasmin plays an important role in maintaining iron homeostasis in the CNS and in protecting the CNS from iron-mediated free radical injury. [PMID: 12151537].
- Cp is a highly effective antioxidant that can prevent oxidative damage to lipids, DNA, and proteins [PMID: 16597684, PMID: 1510375].
- During cell lysis, myeloperoxidase is released into the extracellular environment where production of hypochlorous acid, a powerful oxidant, will lead to molecular damage. Cp specifically binds to myeloperoxidase and thereby also inhibits production of the oxidant hypochlorous acid used by neutrophils [PMID: 10993479].
- CP protein expression was linked to high-grade disease and reduced survival rate in renal cell carcinoma patients [PMID: 34284640].
- In serum of patients with end-stage renal disease (ESRD) having continuous ambulatory peritoneal dialysis (CAPD) treatment, CP activity was increased with regard to control group. ESRD patients on CAPD treatment exhibit increased lipid peroxidation reactions and decreased antioxidant protection [PMID: 18457672].
- Tissue protein assays demonstrated that clear-cell renal cell carcinoma (ccRCC) patient samples have highly expressed CP, while in vitro experiments showed that CP could promote the invasion of renal cancer cells. ccRCC patients with high expression of CP usually have a lower overall survival rate as shown by Kaplan-Meier survival analysis [PMID: 34449964].
- Approximately 30% of patients with sickle cell anemia (SCA) develop chronic kidney disease (CKD) and 14-18% of SCA patients progress to end stage kidney disease [PMID: 27900941]. Proteomic analysis of urine showed that CP was present at much higher levels in the SCA samples with hemoglobinuria compared to SCA controls. Only urinary CP demonstrated overall good correlation with CKD stage and urinary Hgb levels and represent a plausible non-invasive biomarker of CKD risk in SCA patients [PMID: 29127684].
