Ferroptosis is a type of cell death that was described less than a decade ago. It is caused by
the excess of free intracellular iron that leads to lipid (hydro) peroxidation. Iron is essential …

Growing evidence has indicated that iron deposition is one of the key factors leading to
neuronal death in the neurodegenerative diseases. Ferritin is a hollow iron storage protein …

BACKGROUND: Serum ferritin was discovered in the 1930s, and was developed as a
clinical test in the 1970s. Many diseases are associated with iron overload or iron deficiency …

Reactive oxygen species (ROS) are known as toxic metabolic products in plants and other
aerobic organisms. An elaborate and highly redundant plant ROS network, composed of …

Ferritins are characterized by highly conserved three-dimensional structures similar to
spherical shells, designed to accommodate large amounts of iron in a safe, soluble and …

Plants have recently moved into the spotlight owing to the growing realization that the world
needs solutions to energy and food production that are sustainable and environmentally …

This review provides an overview about recent developments and current knowledge about
monitoring, generation and the functional role of reactive oxygen species (ROS)–H 2 O 2 …

Iron is indispensable for almost all forms of life but toxic at elevated levels,,–. To survive
within their hosts, bacterial pathogens have evolved iron uptake, storage and detoxification …

Aims The changes in iron status occurring during the course of heart failure (HF) and the
underlying pathomechanisms are largely unknown. Hepcidin, the major regulatory protein …

Proper metal transport and homeostasis are critical for the growth and development of
plants. In order to potentially fortify plants pre-harvest with essential metals in aid of human …
