Hepcidin: Regulation of the master iron regulator [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Iron, an essential nutrient, is required for many diverse biological processes. The absence of a defined pathway to excrete excess iron makes it essential for the body to regulate the amount of iron absorbed; a deficiency could lead to iron deficiency ...

Interplay of serum hepcidin with female sex hormones, metabolic syndrome, and abdominal fat distribution among premenopausal and postmenopausal women

open access: yesThe Egyptian Journal of Internal Medicine, 2022
Highlights • Postmenopausal state (PMS) and metabolic syndrome (MetS) are independent factors of high hepcidin. • Estrogen and progesterone are correlated with hepcidin but not explain its higher level in PMS. • Ferritin, insulin resistance, and MetS are

Impact of Hemoglobin Improvement on Survival in Patients With Myelofibrosis and Anemia Treated With Momelotinib in the SIMPLIFY‐1 and MOMENTUM Trials

open access: yesEuropean Journal of Haematology, EarlyView.
In this post hoc analysis of the phase 3 SIMPLIFY‐1 and MOMENTUM trials, the number of patients with baseline hemoglobin < 10 g/dL who achieved hemoglobin ≥ 10 g/dL by week 24 with momelotinib, as well as the time to achievement, were evaluated. Patients who were JAK inhibitor naive and/or had moderate anemia were more likely and faster to achieve this

Regulation of hepcidin and hemojuvelin expression and their role in iron homeostasis [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
Hepcidin is the key regulator of iron homeostasis acting as a negative regulator of intestinal iron absorption. Several proteins have recently been identified to act as upstream regulators of hepcidin expression, such as HFE and hemojuvelin (HJV ...

Safety and Efficacy of Iron Chelators in Patients With Chronic Kidney Disease: A Systematic Review and Meta‐Analysis

open access: yesHemodialysis International, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Iron overload in chronic kidney disease contributes to oxidative injury. The role of iron chelators, standard in transfusion‐related overload, remains unclear in chronic kidney disease. Aim To evaluate the efficacy and safety of iron chelators in adults with chronic kidney disease.

Iron, hepcidin, and the metal connection [PDF]

open access: yesFrontiers in Pharmacology, 2014
Identification of new players in iron metabolism, such as hepcidin, which regulates ferroportin and divalent metal transporter 1 expression, has improved our knowledge of iron metabolism and iron-related diseases. However, from both experimental data and clinical findings, "iron-related proteins" appear to also be involved in the metabolism of other ...

Development of a mass spectrometry diagnostic assay to monitor hepcidin levels in hemochromatosis patients [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
Hepcidin has been identified as the principle regulatory peptide essential for iron homeostasis. Expression of this cysteine-rich peptide is up-regulated by inflammation and iron overload, whereas hypoxia, iron deficiency and erythropoiesis suppress ...

The significance of serum hepcidin on iron status in overweight and obese patients with iron-deficiency anemia

open access: yesIraqi Journal of Hematology, 2020
BACKGROUND: Deficiency of iron is one of the most prevalent nutritional disorders, and obesity is an increasing nutritional problem, but only a few studies mention a possible association between them in Iraq.

Dietary modulation of antimicrobial peptides (HAMP and LEAP2) in Chinook salmon (Oncorhynchus tshawytscha) fed a phytobiotic functional diet: Integrated genomic characterisation and tissue‐specific expression

open access: yesJournal of Fish Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract Antimicrobial peptides (AMPs) are key components of the innate immune system in fish, providing rapid protection against microbial pathogens. Among these, the liver‐expressed antimicrobial peptides (LEAPs), comprising LEAP‐1 (hepcidin; HAMP) and LEAP‐2, play central roles in host defence and iron regulation.
