Iron is an essential element for almost all living organisms except some bacteria. A great number of new articles related to the iron metabolism have been published in recent years explaining new findings. Hepsidine, a peptide hormon, that is recently found, regulates iron methabolism by effecting iron absorbsion from gut, secreting iron from hepatic ...

Selective elimination of quiescent cancer cells by dequalinium chloride via ROS‐mediated ferroptosis
Dequalinium chloride (DQ) selectively eliminates quiescent cancer cells (QCCs) by amplifying mitochondrial ROS. QCCs exhibit elevated basal ROS and limited redox‐buffering capacity, making them vulnerable to further ROS increases. DQ‐induced ROS exceeds the tolerance threshold, triggering lipid peroxidation and ferroptosis, whereas proliferating cells ...

Iron as an immunometabolic signal in infection and inflammation
Iron availability is dynamically remodeled during infection and inflammation and has traditionally been interpreted within the framework of nutritional immunity, where iron sequestration restricts microbial growth. Increasing evidence, however, indicates

Identification of Iron Metabolism
Abstract A methodology for the study of erythroid disorders by means of a mathematical model of iron kinetics and classification techniques are presented. Iron flows along the pathway linking iron pools in the body can be quantitated by estimating model parameters from tracer data. This provides a quantitative assessment of erythropoiesis, since iron

Characterization of the key membrane protein cytochrome Cyc2 from Ghiorsea bivora
This study reports the first detailed biochemical analysis of Cyc2TAG1_1, a cytochrome protein involved in microbial iron oxidation. We produced and purified this enzyme in E. coli, then measured its iron‐oxidizing efficiency, and characterized its electrical and structural properties.
