Abstract:
Iron homeostasis is critical for multiple physiological and pathological processes. DMT1, a core iron transporter, is expressed in almost all cells and organs and altered in response to various conditions, whereas, there is few reviews focusing on DMT1 in diseases associated with aberrant iron metabolism. Based on available knowledge, this review described a full view of DMT1 and summarized the roles of DMT1 and DMT1-mediated iron metabolism in the onset and development of inflammatory and degenerative diseases. This review also provided an overview of DMT1-related treatment in these disorders, highlighting its therapeutic potential in chronic inflammatory and degenerative diseases.
