Duodenal cytochrome B (Dcytb) has been identified as the reductase enzyme which catalyzes the reduction of Fe3+ to Fe2+ in the process of iron absorption in the duodenum of mammals. According to research carried out it appears that Dcytb upregulation is controlled by a number of independent stimulators or inhibitors of iron absorption.
