Minireview: Chromatin-based regulation of iron homeostasis in plants
Plants utilize delicate mechanisms to effectively respond to changes in the availability of nutrients such as iron. The responses to iron status involve controlling gene expression at multiple levels.

Non-invasive assessment of normal and impaired iron homeostasis in the brain
Strict iron regulation is essential for normal brain function. The iron homeostasis, determined by the milieu of available iron compounds, is impaired in aging, neurodegenerative diseases and cancer.

Host and microbiota derived extracellular vesicles: Crucial players in iron homeostasis
Iron is a double-edged sword. It is vital for all that’s living, yet its deficiency or overload can be fatal. In humans, iron homeostasis is tightly regulated at both cellular and systemic levels.

The Role of Sulfur in Agronomic Biofortification with Essential Micronutrients
Sulfur (S) is an essential macronutrient for plants, being necessary for their growth and metabolism and exhibiting diverse roles throughout their life cycles. Inside the plant body, S is present either in one of its inorganic forms or incorporated in an
