Through a process mediated by divalent metal transporter 1 (DMT1, also known as SLC11A2), Fe 2+ translocates from endosomes into the cytoplasm and subsequently forms an iron pool that is not stable inside the cytoplasm ( 2+ inside the iron pool undergoes partial delivery to ferritin by directly binding to Poly(rC)-binding protein 1 (PCBP1) to protect cells and tissues from iron-induced injury, whereas some Fe 2+ also binds to PCBP2 and then is removed from the cell via SLC40A1 located on the cell membrane (Tang et al., 2021)
