Abstract

Organisms, like cells, maintain tight control of iron. In humans as well as other mammals, control is achieved through the regulation of iron uptake into the body rather than through the excretion of iron. The mechanisms by which humans and mice regulate both iron uptake and the distribution of iron within the body and cells are reviewed. Special emphasis is given to the iron transporters involved in this process.
