Trace Element Analysis in Human Neuroblastoma Cell Spheroids Supplemented With ZnCl2 by Micro‐XRF
ABSTRACT Neuroblastoma, the most common extracranial solid tumor of childhood, is responsible for ~10% of pediatric cancer deaths and has high potential for metastasis. Metals are extremely important in biological processes, and changes in their levels have been correlated with the development of cancerous growth.

Metallomics in environmental and health related research: Current status and perspectives [PDF]
Metals and metalloids play distinct roles in human health, either beneficial or toxic, depending on their concentrations and species. There is an increasing interest in metals uptake, trafficking, function, and exertion in microorganisms to maintain and ...

ABSTRACT Iron (Fe) is an essential micronutrient for plant growth and development. The maintenance of Fe homeostasis relies on sophisticated regulatory networks where bHLH transcription factors play a key role. However, how these factors coordinate to regulate this vital process is not fully understood.

Metallochaperones regulate intracellular copper levels. [PDF]
Copper (Cu) is an important enzyme co-factor that is also extremely toxic at high intracellular concentrations, making active efflux mechanisms essential for preventing Cu accumulation. Here, we have investigated the mechanistic role of metallochaperones

Abstract Peri‐implant diseases are dysbiosis‐mediated inflammatory disorders that occur in susceptible hosts. Antimicrobials and immunomodulatory agents therefore might be pertinent as adjunctive measures in the treatment of such disorders. The aim of this narrative review was to examine the existing evidence and assess the effectiveness of emerging ...

Profiling the iron, copper and zinc content in primary neuron and astrocyte cultures by rapid online quantitative size exclusion chromatography-inductively coupled plasma-mass spectrometry [PDF]
Metals often determine the chemical reactivity of the proteins to which they are bound. Each cell in the body tightly maintains a unique metalloproteomic profile, mostly dependent on function.

Real‐time in‐cell 19F NMR spectroscopy in a flow NMR bioreactor was used to monitor the binding of fluorinated compounds to three cytosolic carbonic anhydrase isoforms in living human cells. The simultaneous observation of the two ligands allowed for the quantitative ranking of their intracellular affinities by competition binding. This approach allows
