Figure 5

Expression level of genes related to iron metabolism is different among liver-derived cell types. Expression level of genes related to iron transport was quantified in RPH, MPH, HepG2 cells, and Hepa1-6 cells. Expression level of (A) Dcytb, (B) Steap4, (C) Zip14, (D) Tfrc, (E) Steap3, (F) Dmt1, (G) Fpn, (H) Fth1, and (I) Hmox1 was examined in RPH, MPH, HepG2 cells and Hepa1-6 cells by RT-qPCR using the common primers for respective genes from human, mouse, and rat. Expression level in RPH was set at 1. The letters a, b, and c indicate that the mean is significantly different (P < 0.05). ND indicates that the transcript was not detected.
