Abstract
Three malignant hematopoietic cell lines were used in studies on cellular iron metabolism. Our results show that iron-carrying transferrin became bound to specific dimeric cell surface receptors. Iron accumulated within the cell with time, whereas intact transferrin was released back to the medium. …
