Abstract
Copper is a ubiquitously essential nutrient for cells. In this issue of Cell Metabolism, Kim et al. (2010) demonstrate that tissue copper status can be communicated across organ systems. In a mouse model for cardiac copper deficiency, a serum-carried signal mobilized liver and intestinal copper by inducing ATP7A, a copper-exporting ATPase.
