regulatory protein hepcidin are thought to play an integral role in the pathogenesis of hereditary hemochromatosis. Normally, hepcidin acts to reduce iron...

hormone hepcidin may play a role in the regulation of hemoglobin production, and thus affect erythropoiesis. The liver produces hepcidin. Hepcidin controls...

overweight Decreased levels of serum and urine hepcidin are early indicators of iron deficiency. Hepcidin concentrations are also connected to the complex...

Hepcidin levels in the liver are dramatically depressed in these knockout animals. A soluble form of HJV may be a molecule that suppresses hepcidin expression...

Erythroferrone is produced by erythroblasts, inhibits the production of hepcidin in the liver, and so increases the amount of iron available for hemoglobin...
