Insights into zinc and cadmium biology in the nematode Caenorhabditis elegans.

Archives of biochemistry and biophysics - 1 Dec 2016

Abstract excerpt

Zinc is an essential metal that is involved in a wide range of biological processes, and aberrant zinc homeostasis is implicated in multiple human diseases. Cadmium is chemically similar to zinc, but it is a nonessential environmental pollutant. Because zinc deficiency and excess are deleterious, animals require homeostatic mechanisms to maintain zinc levels in response to dietary fluctuations. The nematode...
