    Mucus increases cell iron uptake to impact the release of pro-inflammatory mediators after particle exposure

    We tested the hypothesis that (1) mucus production can be included in the cell response to iron deficiency; (2) mucus binds iron and increases cell metal uptake; and subsequently (3) mucus impacts the inflamma...

    A role for divalent metal transporter (DMT1) in mitochondrial uptake of iron and manganese

    Much of iron and manganese metabolism occurs in mitochondria. Uptake of redox-active iron must be tightly controlled, but little is known about how metal ions enter mitochondria. Recently, we established that ...
