    ZIP10 is predominantly expressed in the interfollicular epidermis, epidermal appendages and hair follicles. ZIP10 depletion resulted in epidermal malformations in a reconstituted human skin model via downregulation of the epigenetic enzyme histone acetyltransferase (HAT). Decreased HAT activity, resulting from either ZIP10 depletion or treatment with the zinc chelator TPEN, was readily restored by zinc supplementation.

    The epithelial zinc transporter ZIP10 epigenetically regulates human epidermal homeostasis by modulating histone acetyltransferase activity.

    ZIP6 deficiency disturbs intracellular Zn2+ homeostasis, leading to increased cell survival in hypoxia and reduced E-cadherin expression, indicating that decreased ZIP6 expression is strongly associated with resistance to hypoxia.

    Zinc and its transporter ZIP6 are key mediators of breast cancer cell survival under high glucose conditions.
