Anemia of Inflammation in Solid Tumor Patients and Practical Education for Oncologists and Nurses. [PDF]
Tumor‐ and immune‐derived cytokines including IL‐6, IL‐1β, TNF‐α, TGF‐β, IL‐10, and IFN‐γ drive anemia of inflammation: IL‐6/TNF‐α upregulate hepatic hepcidin to block iron export, while other cytokines suppress erythropoiesis and shorten red cell survival.

Molecular Mechanisms Regulating Hepcidin Revealed by Hepcidin Disorders [PDF]
Iron is essential for human life, but toxic if present in excess. To avoid iron overload and maintain iron homeostasis, all cells are able to regulate their iron content through the post-transcriptional control of iron genes operated by the cytosolic iron regulatory proteins that interact with iron responsive elements on iron gene mRNA. At the systemic

The iron hormone hepcidin is transcriptionally activated by iron or inflammation via distinct, partially overlapping pathways. We addressed how iron affects inflammatory hepcidin levels and the ensuing hypoferremic response. Dietary iron overload did not

Lung cancer has the highest death rate among cancers globally. Hepcidin is a fascinating regulator of iron metabolism; however, the prognostic value of hepcidin and its correlation with immune cell infiltration in lung cancer remain unclear.

Protective Role of Hepcidin in Polymicrobial Sepsis and Acute Kidney Injury
Background: Acute kidney injury (AKI) portends worse prognosis following sepsis, with limited available interventions. Host iron acquisition by pathogens and systemic inflammatory response are key events in the pathogenesis of sepsis. In sepsis, hepcidin

Iron status and systemic inflammation, but not gut inflammation, strongly predict gender-specific concentrations of serum hepcidin in infants in rural Kenya. [PDF]
Hepcidin regulation by competing stimuli such as infection and iron deficiency has not been studied in infants and it's yet unknown whether hepcidin regulatory pathways are fully functional in infants.

Hepcidin Induces M1 Macrophage Polarization in Monocytes or THP-1 Derived Macrophages [PDF]
Background: Macrophage polarization plays a critical role in determining the inflammatory states. Hepcidin is a key negative regulator of iron homeostasis and functions.

A tincture of hepcidin cures all: the potential for hepcidin therapeutics [PDF]
Iron overload as a result of blood transfusions and excessive intestinal iron absorption can be a complication of chronic anemias such as β-thalassemia. Inappropriately low levels of hepcidin, a negative regulator of iron absorption and recycling, underlie the pathophysiology of the intestinal hyperabsorption. In this issue of the JCI, Gardenghi et al.

Iron related disorders are encountered in daily clinical settings. Maintenance of stable extracellular iron concentrations requires the coordinate regulation of iron transport into plasma from dietary sources in the duodenum, from recycled senescent red cells in macrophages and from storage in hepatocytes.
