Iron‐related intercellular communication in the liver: Main players and mechanisms
Iron exchange between liver cell types is vital for organism health, yet its mechanisms remain poorly understood. In this review, we address intercellular communication governing hepatic iron regulation across different liver diseases. We summarize recent insights into how hepatocytes, macrophages, endothelial and stellate cells coordinate iron storage,
