An editable high resolution scientific image depicting iron homeostasis

Description

The ferric iron (Fe3+) supplied by the diet reaches the duodenum. It is reduced to ferrous iron (Fe2+) by cytochrome B (Dcytb), a ferroreductase located at the apical pole of duodenal enterocytes. Fe2+ enters the cell via a divalent metal transporter (DMT1). Once in the cytoplasm, iron can be stored as ferritin (FTN), be used in cellular processes or enter the bloodstream via a transporter, ferroportin (FPN), located at the basolateral pole of enterocytes. etc.
