Ferroptosis is a new type of regulatory cell death that differs from autophagy, apoptosis,
necrosis, and pyroptosis; it is caused primarily by the accumulation of iron and lipid …

Iron is an absolute requirement for both the host and most pathogens alike and is needed for
normal cellular growth. The acquisition of iron by biological systems is regulated to …

Zero valent iron (ZVI) has been previously documented to attenuate the propagation of
antibiotic resistance genes (ARGs) in microbes, while how ZVI affects the evolution of ARGs …

The synthesis and trafficking of iron-sulfur (Fe-S) clusters in both prokaryotes and
eukaryotes requires coordination within an expanding network of proteins that function in the …

Iron homeostasis in fungi involves balancing iron uptake and storage with iron utilization to
achieve adequate, nontoxic levels of this essential nutrient. Extensive work in the …

Metals are actively involved in multiple catalytic physiological activities. However, metal
overload may result in neurotoxicity as it increases formation of reactive oxygen species …

Iron sulfur (Fe-S) clusters rank among the most ancient and conserved prosthetic groups. Fe-
S clusters containing proteins are present in most, if not all, organisms. Fe-S clusters …

In cells molecular chaperone systems consisting of Hsp70 and its obligatory J-domain
protein (JDP) co-chaperones transiently interact with a myriad of client proteins—with JDPs …

Background: Understanding the intrinsic mechanisms of bacterial competition is a
fundamental question. Iron is an essential trace nutrient that bacteria compete for. The most …

Aims This study aimed to investigate whether berberine (BBR) can inhibit the iron reduction
mechanism of Candida albicans, lowering the iron uptake of the yeast and perhaps having …
