Lysosomal Expansion Compartments Mediate Zinc and Copper Homeostasis in Caenorhabditis elegans
Zinc is an essential transition metal that participates in many biological processes. In C. elegans, excess zinc is stored in lysosomes in intestinal cells; this process involves increasing the expression of the zinc transporter CDF-2 an...

Pharmacokinetic, Antimicrobial, Antibiofilm, and Virulence Target Binding Propensities of a Hetero-Ligated Thiolato-Bridged Dinuclear Metallacyclic Manganese(I)-based CO-Releasing Molecule
Staphylococcus aureus and Escherichia coli remain major concerns in global public health, posing clinical challenges due to their adaptability, virulence, and biofilm-mediated persistence. The continued emergence of drug-resistant strain...

The Cancer Metallome Continuum: A Framework for Understanding Metal Dysregulation from Carcinogenesis to Therapeutic Resistance
Metals and metalloids play essential roles in cancer biology, influencing redox balance, epigenetic regulation, immune responses, and cell death throughout tumour development, progression, and resistance to therapy. Despite this broad bi...

Smart Cyclometalated Iridium Photosensitizers: Stimuli-Responsive and Theranostic Systems for Precision Phototherapy
Cyclometalated Iridium(III) complexes have emerged as one of the most versatile classes of photosensitizers for photodynamic therapy (PDT), owing to their tunable photophysics, high phosphorescence quantum yields, and intrinsic capacity ...

Phosphate availability modulates elemental homeostasis in rainbow trout hepatocytes: compositional ionomics illuminates system-wide adjustments
Phosphorus (P) is central to biology, yet it remains unclear whether P limitation acts as an isolated nutrient constraint or as a perturbation to a dynamical elemental network. We tested this using the rainbow trout liver cell line RTL-W...

Metallomic profiling of mouse tissues under differential dietary zinc intake
Zinc is an essential trace element, yet how graded dietary zinc intake reshapes tissue-specific distributions of zinc and other essential metals remains incompletely understood. This study investigated the impact of dietary zinc ranging ...

Genome-wide identification and expression analysis of the ZIP (ZRT, IRT-like protein) family in Solanum lycopersicum
Iron (Fe), zinc (Zn), manganese (Mn), and copper (Cu) are essential micronutrients for plant growth and development, but their low bioavailability in soil limits crop growth and yield. The ZIP (ZRT/IRT-like protein) family plays critical...

Specificity and regulatory mechanism of metal ions in Cas12a enzymatic cleavage activity
Metal ions play key roles in both physiological and pathological processes. The activity of nearly all nucleases depends on metal ions as cofactors. CRISPR-Cas system is widely used in gene editing and nucleic acid detection, and its ong...

Diverse microbial metal resistance and novel metal cycling organisms in copper/nickel mine tailings
Mine tailings contribute to environmental heavy metal contamination through the formation of acid mine drainage. Microbially-mediated processes such as iron and sulfur redox cycling influence metal mobility. Here, we applied an integrate...

Preservation artifacts in zebrafish X-ray fluorescence imaging
Preservation and embedding procedures can substantially influence elemental distributions measured by X-ray fluorescence imaging (XFI), particularly for mobile endogenous elements. While effects of formalin fixation have been widely stud...
