The use of depleted uranium (DU) in both civilian and military applications leads to an increasing exposure of human populations to this radionuclide. Some studies suggested that this radioactive heavy metal may interfere with iron pathway. The aim of this work was thus to investigate the effects of a chronic contamination by DU on iron homeostasis in rats.
