    TLDR Zinc is crucial for health, and its transporters are linked to various diseases.
    The document discussed the essential role of zinc (Zn) in human development and tissue homeostasis, highlighting that insufficient Zn levels could lead to health issues such as impaired growth, hair loss, taste disturbance, and anorexia. It emphasized the importance of Zn homeostasis, which was maintained by two families of Zn transporters: Zrt- and Irt-like proteins (ZIPs) and Zinc transporters (ZnTs). Studies involving gene knock-out mice and human genetic analysis revealed a connection between zinc transporters and human diseases. Additionally, Zn transporter-mediated Zn ions acted as signaling factors, influencing various cellular events. The review detailed the physiological roles of Zn transporters and their molecular, biochemical, and genetic contributions to the mechanisms of human diseases.
