Metal transporter SLC39A14/ZIP14 modulates regulation between the gut microbiome and host metabolism
2021-12-23
Abstract excerpt
Zinc (Zn) plays a critical role in maintaining intestinal homeostasis by regulating intestinal epithelial cells, host immune cells, and gut microbiome community composition. Deletion of metal transporter Slc39a14/Zip14 causes spontaneous intestinal permeability with low-grade chronic inflammation, mild hyperinsulinemia, and greater body fat with insulin resistance in adipose, suggesting a role for ZIP14-mediated...
