American Journal of Hematology, EarlyView.ABSTRACT The iron regulatory hormone hepcidin contributes to the pathogenesis of anemia of inflammation (AI) by inhibiting the iron exporter ferroportin in target cells, causing hypoferremia. Under acute inflammation, hepcidin induction requires hemojuvelin (Hjv), a bone morphogenetic protein co‐receptor, while Fpn mRNA is also suppressed in a hepcidin‐
