Metal transport research focuses on understanding the mechanisms by which metals are transported within biological systems, such as cells and organisms. This research area explores how metals are taken up, transported, stored, and regulated in living organisms, and how dysregulation of metal transport processes can lead to various diseases and health problems. Researchers in this field investigate the molecular mechanisms involved in metal transport, as well as the roles of metal transport proteins and transport pathways in maintaining metal homeostasis in cells and organisms. This research is important for understanding the impacts of metal exposure on human health, as well as for developing strategies to prevent and treat metal-related diseases.
