Distinct iron homeostasis in C57BL/6 and Balb/c mouse strains

Abstract C57BL/6 (BL6) and Balb/c mice exhibit prototypical Th1‐ and Th2‐dominant immune predispositions, respectively. Iron is a proinflammatory metal ion; however, limited information is documented on the differences in iron homeostasis between BL6 and Balb/c strains. The objective of this study w...
