From the cytosol to the inner membrane: biogenesis of the mitochondrial carrier family
Abstract Mitochondrial carrier proteins are essential for cellular physiology as they are active in a wide range of metabolic pathways including production of cellular energy, amino acid synthesis, redox balance and ion homeostasis. The double membrane of mitochondria provides a tightly gated environment through which carrier proteins facilitate the ...

Congenital sideroblastic anemia model due to ALAS2 mutation is susceptible to ferroptosis
X-linked sideroblastic anemia (XLSA), the most common form of congenital sideroblastic anemia, is caused by a germline mutation in the erythroid-specific 5-aminolevulinate synthase (ALAS2) gene.

Biology of sideroblastic anemia.
Sideroblastic anemia is characterized by anemia with ring sideroblasts produced by the bone marrow. Sideroblasts are formed by disutilization and deposit of iron in the mitochondoria. There are two forms of sideroblastic anemia: congenital and acquired.

Heavy Metal Contamination in Chocolates and Candies: Sources, Health Risks, and Analytical Insights
The presence of heavy metals in chocolates and candies poses growing public health concerns, particularly for children who are frequent consumers. This review consolidates evidence on the occurrence, sources, toxicological impacts, and analytical monitoring of metals, including Pb, Cd, Hg, As, Cr, Ni, and Al, in confectionery products.

Removal of Toxic Metabolites—Chelation: Manganese Disorders
ABSTRACT Manganese (Mn) overload is a characteristic of multiple disease entities, from acquired manganism upon environmental or occupational overexposure, to end‐stage liver disease and certain genetic disorders. The latter include hypermanganesaemia with dystonia 1 and 2 caused by pathogenic variants in the genes encoding the Mn transporters SLC30A10
