Adipose knockout of H-ferritin improves energy metabolism in mice

Objective: Ferritin, the principal iron storage protein, is essential to iron homeostasis. How iron homeostasis affects the adipose tissue is not well understood. We investigated the role of ferritin heavy chain in adipocytes in energy metabolism. Methods: We generated adipocyte-specific ferritin he...
