Among the biologically required first row, late d-block metals from Mn II to Zn II, the catalytic
and structural reach of Zn II ensures that this essential micronutrient touches nearly every …

Oxidative stress is a well-known driver of numerous pathological processes involving protein
and lipid peroxidation and DNA damage. The resulting increase of pro-apoptotic pressure …

Low concentration of zinc (Zn) in the endosperm of cereals is a major factor contributing to
Zn deficiency in human populations. We have investigated how combined Zn and nitrogen …

This review examines recent applications of stable copper, zinc and sulfur isotopes to
medical cases and notably cancer. The distribution of the natural stable isotopes of a …

Objective The aim of this study was to examine the association between serum zinc levels
and several body composition factors in Korean adults. Methods We used data from the …

The distribution of intracellular zinc, predominantly regulated through zinc transporters and
zinc binding proteins, is required to support an efficient immune response. Epigenetic …

An unbranched N3O2 ligand 2, 6-bis [((2-pyridinylmethyl) oxy) methyl] pyridine (L1) was
used to prepare new mononuclear heteroleptic Group 12 perchlorate complexes …

Zinc is the second most abundant trace element in humans and is essential for the activity of
more than 300 enzymes. It affects the conformation of many transcription factors associated …

Zinc is the second most abundant transition metal in the body. Despite the fact that hundreds
of biomolecules require zinc for proper function and/or structure, the mechanism of zinc …

Many of the molecular constituents of cells are known, but how their dynamic interplay and
organization leads to functional cellular behavior is still not well understood. Classically …
