Homeostatic regulation of growth-associated increase in the labile intracellular pool of zinc in 3T3 cells

The size of the labile intracellular pool of zinc (LIPZ) is increased during growth factorstimulated proliferation in 3T3 cells, but the mechanisms involved are unknown. We hypothesized that this increase in the size of the LIPZ is the result of altered cellular zinc homeostasis, ensuring an adeq...
