Ferroptosis and Its Emerging Role in Gestational Diabetes Mellitus

Medicine Advances, EarlyView.
Ferroptosis contributes to the development of gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM) through iron overload, lipid peroxidation, and antioxidant system disruption. These changes impair adipocyte and β‐cell function, promoting insulin resistance and hyperglycemia.

Iron Physiology and Its Impact on Atopic Diseases: An EAACI Taskforce Report

Allergy, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Iron is essential for oxygen transport, energy metabolism, and immune regulation. Yet iron deficiency is the most common micronutrient disorder across all age groups, affecting nearly one quarter of the global population. Iron deficiency triggers nutritional immunity, a host defense mechanism that withholds and redistributes iron, contributing

Hepcidin.

[Rinsho ketsueki] The Japanese journal of clinical hematology, 2016
Hepcidin is an iron-regulating peptide hormone made in the liver. It controls the delivery of iron to blood plasma from intestinal cells absorbing iron, from erythrocyte-recycling macrophages, and from iron-storing hepatocytes. Hepcidin acts by binding to and inactivating the sole cellular iron exporter, ferroportin, which delivers iron to plasma from ...

The role of iron in normal and impaired testicular function

Andrology, EarlyView.
Abstract Iron plays a critical role in testicular physiology, impacting spermatogenesis, testosterone production, and overall testicular function. Iron homeostasis is maintained through systemic and cellular regulatory mechanisms, including hepcidin‐mediated systemic iron control and the iron‐responsive element/iron regulatory protein (IRE/IRP) system ...

Clinical Trial: Predicting Response to Iron Therapy in Patients With Active Inflammatory Bowel Disease Using Hepcidin and Functional Iron Indices: A Multicentre Randomised Trial

Alimentary Pharmacology &Therapeutics, EarlyView.
Hepcidin levels predict response to iron therapy and support route selection for iron therapy in patients with active inflammatory bowel disease: higher levels favour IV iron, while lower levels indicate likely oral response. Ferritin‐based indices, particularly transferrin/log10(ferritin) and sTfR/log10(ferritin), offer reliable alternatives. ABSTRACT

Association between elevated iron status and the risk of preeclampsia: A systematic review and meta-analysis [PDF]

Journal of Medical Biochemistry
Background: This review aims to conduct a comprehensive and systematic report of the currently published information on the association between elevated hepcidin levels and the risk of preeclampsia by meta-analysis of published prospective case-control ...

Gasdermin‐Mediated Pyroptosis: Novel Strategies Against Colorectal Cancer

Cancer Science, EarlyView.
Pyroptosis is a double‐edged sword in colorectal cancer (CRC): chronic low‐grade pyroptosis promotes tumor progression, whereas acute induction of pyroptosis in cancer cells triggers antitumor immunity and enhances therapeutic response. Targeting gasdermin‐mediated pyroptosis represents a promising strategy for CRC treatment.

Physiological Basis of Sex Differences in Human Performance and Exercise‐Associated Pathology

Clinical Endocrinology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The presence of sex differences in human physical performance is well‐established and shaped by distinct endocrine, anatomical and physiological mechanisms. Despite sustained advances, our understanding of how inherent biological factors drive variations in exercise capacity and related pathologies is still developing.

Mechanisms of Thrombocytosis in Iron‐Deficiency Anemia

European Journal of Haematology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Iron‐deficiency anemia is frequently accompanied by reactive thrombocytosis, yet the mechanisms underlying this association remain incompletely understood. Beyond impaired erythropoiesis, iron availability has emerged as an active regulator of hematopoietic lineage decisions.

The effect of nonsurgical periodontal therapy on hepcidin and on inflammatory and iron marker levels

Brazilian Oral Research
Serum hepcidin levels may increase in response to infection and inflammation. The present study investigated the effect of nonsurgical periodontal therapy (NSPT) on levels of serum hepcidin, inflammatory markers, and iron markers. An interventional study
