“…Furthermore, through studies in insects (fruit fly) and fish (yellow catfish), another putative Zn transporter (ZIP13), located in the cellular endoplasmic reticulum and Golgi apparatus, has been shown to transport iron within cells between cytoplasm and cellular organelles, yet being transcriptionally regulated by Zn administration (Liu et al, 2022;. This regulatory process may be an explanation for findings from studies with humans where an inhibition of iron uptake after supplementation with Zn has been observed (Mujica-Coopman et al, 2015;Wasantwisut et al, 2006).…”
