Comparison of percent ⁵⁴Mn uptake between whole body (WB) and intestine-specific (I) Zip14 knockout (KO). Mice were administered ⁵⁴Mn via subcutenous injection, and 4 h later radioactivity was measured in intestine (A), blood and brain (B), liver (C), and pancreas and kidney (D). Values are reported as means ± SD; n = 7–14 (both female and male mice were included). Student’s t test for wild-type (WT) vs. WB-KO and floxed Zip14 (fl/fl) vs. I-KO comparison.
