Anemia of Inflammation in Solid Tumor Patients and Practical Education for Oncologists and Nurses. [PDF]

open access: yesThorac Cancer
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]

open access: yesThe Scientific World JOURNAL, 2011
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

A crosstalk between hepcidin and IRE/IRP pathways controls ferroportin expression and determines serum iron levels in mice

open access: yeseLife, 2022
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

Hepcidin Upregulation in Lung Cancer: A Potential Therapeutic Target Associated With Immune Infiltration

open access: yesFrontiers in Immunology, 2021
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

open access: yesFrontiers in Pharmacology, 2019
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]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2013
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]

open access: yesIranian Journal of Immunology, 2019
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]

open access: yesJournal of Clinical Investigation, 2010
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.

Hepcidin–Minireview

open access: yesJOURNAL OF CLINICAL AND DIAGNOSTIC RESEARCH, 2013
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.
