Gibson S, Frost I, Hierons S, Moses T, Poon W, West S, et al.
Nat Commun . 2025 Feb; 16(1):1400. PMID: 39948360
Bacterial death is critical in nutrient recycling. However, the underlying mechanisms that permit macromolecule recycling after bacterial death are largely unknown. We demonstrate that bacteria encode post-mortem protein catabolism via...

Lu J, Hierons S, Arya S, Fritzen R, Polepalli S, Khazaipoul S, et al.
Chem Commun (Camb) . 2025 Jan; 61(10):2099-2102. PMID: 39801276
The foetal plasma protein α-fetoprotein (AFP) harbours a high-affinity zinc binding site that is likely involved in transport and delivery of essential zinc during foetal development. Based on a recent...

Wu D, Hierons S, Polepalli S, Gucwa M, Fritzen R, Markiewicz M, et al.
J Lipid Res . 2024 May; 65(6):100560. PMID: 38750995
Zinc is required for virtually all biological processes. In plasma, Zn is predominantly transported by human serum albumin (HSA), which possesses two Zn-binding sites of differing affinities (sites A and...

Abbas K, Hierons S, Pechlivani N, Phoenix F, Alexander R, King R, et al.
Res Pract Thromb Haemost . 2024 Mar; 8(2):102361. PMID: 38545128
Background: Obesity is a complex condition associated with prothrombotic fibrin networks that are resistant to fibrinolysis. Altered fibrin clot properties enhance cardiovascular risk and associate with a poorer prognosis following...

Regan-Smith S, Fritzen R, Hierons S, Ajjan R, Blindauer C, Stewart A
Int J Mol Sci . 2022 Sep; 23(18). PMID: 36142215
The initiation, maintenance and regulation of blood coagulation is inexorably linked to the actions of Zn in blood plasma. Zn interacts with a variety of haemostatic proteins in the bloodstream...

Hierons S, Abbas K, Sobczak A, Cerone M, Smith T, Ajjan R, et al.
Sci Rep . 2022 Sep; 12(1):15337. PMID: 36097032
Obesity is a complex disease that increases an individual's risk of developing other diseases and health-related problems. A common feature is dyslipidemia characterized by increased levels of plasma lipids, which...

Hierons S, Catchpole A, Abbas K, Wong W, Giles M, Miller G, et al.
Biometals . 2022 Feb; 36(2):241-253. PMID: 35138503
Obesity enhances the risk of type-2 diabetes, cardiovascular disease and inflammatory conditions and often leads to metal dyshomeostasis, which contributes to the negative health aspects associated with the disease. In...

Int J Mol Sci . 2021 Sep; 22(18). PMID: 34576303
Thrombosis is a major comorbidity of obesity and type-2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). Despite the development of numerous effective treatments and preventative strategies to address thrombotic disease in such individuals, the...
