INVESTIGATIVE OPHTHALMOLOGY & VISUAL SCIENCE, 51(9), 4437–4446.
MeSH headings : Animals; Apoferritins / genetics; Apoferritins / metabolism; Cell Nucleus / metabolism; Cells, Cultured; Culture Media, Conditioned / pharmacology; Cystine / pharmacokinetics; Dogs; Epithelial Cells / cytology; Epithelial Cells / metabolism; Glutathione / metabolism; Homeostasis / physiology; Hypoxia-Inducible Factor 1, alpha Subunit / metabolism; Iron / metabolism; Lens, Crystalline / cytology; Lens, Crystalline / metabolism; Oxidative Stress / physiology; Protein Subunits / genetics; Protein Subunits / metabolism; RNA, Small Interfering; Transfection; Vascular Endothelial Growth Factor A / metabolism
TL;DR:
Iron storage in ferritin was greatly reduced by FHsiRNA, resulting in increased iron availability, as noted by a decrease in transferrin receptor levels and iron uptake from transferrin, and profound effects clearly demonstrate that maintenance of a specific H:L ratio is part of a basic cellular homeostatic mechanism.

Iron regulates L-cystine uptake and glutathione levels in lens epithelial and retinal pigment epithelial cells by its effect on cytosolic aconitase
INVESTIGATIVE OPHTHALMOLOGY & VISUAL SCIENCE, 49(1), 310–319.
MeSH headings : 2,2'-Dipyridyl / pharmacology; Aconitate Hydratase / antagonists & inhibitors; Aconitate Hydratase / metabolism; Amino Acid Transport System y+ / genetics; Amino Acid Transport System y+ / metabolism; Animals; Cells, Cultured; Chelating Agents / pharmacology; Cystine / metabolism; Cytosol; Dogs; Enzyme Inhibitors / pharmacology; Epithelial Cells / drug effects; Epithelial Cells / metabolism; Fluorescent Antibody Technique, Indirect; Gene Expression; Glutathione / metabolism; Immunoblotting; Lens, Crystalline / drug effects; Lens, Crystalline / metabolism; Oxalates / pharmacology; Pigment Epithelium of Eye / metabolism; RNA, Messenger / metabolism; Reverse Transcriptase Polymerase Chain Reaction; Transferrin / pharmacology
TL;DR:
The authors found that the iron-induced increase in L-glutamate availability increased L-cystine uptake, with subsequent increases in GSH levels, demonstrating for the first time that iron regulates L-cycline uptake and the downstream production of GSH in two mammalian cell types.
