they require oxygen and nutrients delivered through blood vessels, just like every other tissue

Conversely, other studies propose that while excessive HO-1 activation might protect against heme-induced oxidative damage, it may also trigger atypical ferroptosis by generating excessive free iron through heme degradation ( Figure 4 )

Several studies have demonstrated metal-induced increases in the activities of enzymes involved in this cycle and/or highly oxidized metabolite pools, especially in roots
