The association between Hepcidin and arterial stiffness in a community-dwelling population
Lipids in Health and Disease, 2018 Background An association of hepcidin with cardiovascular (CV) disease and atherosclerosis has been reported in different patient groups. However, it has not been well described clinically the association between hepcidin and arterial stiffness.

Sequencing and expression analysis of hepcidin mRNA in donkey (Equus asinus) liver
Pesquisa Veterinária Brasileira, 2012 The hypoferremia that is observed during systemic inflammatory processes is mediated by hepcidin, which is a peptide that is mainly synthesized in the livers of several mammalian species.

An Overlooked Hepcidin–Cadmium Connection
International Journal of Molecular Sciences, 2022 Hepcidin (DTHFPICIFCCGCCHRSKCGMCCKT), an iron-regulatory hormone, is a 25-amino-acid peptide with four intramolecular disulfide bonds circulating in blood. Its hormonal activity is indirect and consists of marking ferroportin-1 (an iron exporter) for degradation.

Hepcidin is potential regulator for renin activity
PLoS ONE, 2022 An association between genetic variants in the genes HFE, HJV, BMP4 and arterial hypertension has been shown earlier. Proteins encoded by these genes participate in the signalling routes leading eventually to the production of the peptide hormone ...

Biochimica et Biophysica Acta (BBA) - Molecular Cell Research, 2012 Despite fluctuations in dietary iron intake and intermittent losses through bleeding, the plasma iron concentrations in humans remain stable at 10-30 μM. While most of the iron entering blood plasma comes from recycling, appropriate amount of iron is absorbed from the diet to compensate for losses and maintain nontoxic amounts in stores.

The effects of a single dialysis session on serum hepcidin levels
Türk Biyokimya Dergisi, 2023 Hepcidin plays an important role in regulating iron metabolism. Elevated levels of hepcidin in renal failure contribute to the development of anemia. We aimed to evaluate the association between hepcidin and inflammation in hemodialysis patients and how ...

Hepcidin as a risk marker for cardiovascular disease in periodontitis—A case control study
Journal of Indian Academy of Oral Medicine and Radiology, 2023 Background: Hepcidin is a 25 amino acid peptide expressed in the liver. Discovered as late as 2002, hepcidin is a master regulator of iron metabolism and is sensitive to inflammation. Chronic periodontitis, being an inflammatory condition, affects levels
