Magnesium plays an important role in many physiological functions. Habitually low intakes
of magnesium and in general the deficiency of this micronutrient induce changes in …

Magnesium alloys are highly attractive for their application as structural materials as well as
medical implants. A range of alloying systems exists which are investigated, eg, in terms of …

Radiation damage of biological samples remains a limiting factor in high resolution X-ray
microscopy (XRM). Several studies have attempted to evaluate the extent and the effects of …

Polymyxin is the last-line therapy against Gram-negative 'superbugs'; however, dose-limiting
nephrotoxicity can occur in up to 60% of patients after intravenous administration …

Chemical imaging offers extensive possibilities for better understanding of biological
systems by allowing the identification of chemical components at the tissue, cellular, and …

Neoplastic cells accumulate magnesium, an event which provides selective advantages and
is frequently associated with TRPM7overexpression. Little is known about magnesium …

The mechanism of action of the mitochondrial Mg channel MRS2 and its involvement in cell
viability remain unclear. Deletion of MRS2 has been reported to abolish Mg influx into …

Local differences in structural properties of biological specimens pose a major limitation to
quantitative X-ray fluorescence imaging. This is because both the various tissue …

The study of X-ray fluorescence (XRF) emission spectra is a powerful technique used in
applications that range from biology to cultural heritage. Key objectives of this technique …

Drug resistance remains a major obstacle in cancer treatment. Because mitochondria
mediate metabolic reprogramming in cancer drug resistance, we focused on these …
