Hemojuvelin: The Hepcidin Story Continues [PDF]
Hemojuvelin (HJV) is a membrane protein that is responsible for the iron overload condition known as juvenile hemochromatosis. HJV, highly expressed in the liver, skeletal muscle and heart, seems to play a role in iron absorption and release from cells and has anti-inflammatory properties.

Iron Overload: Pathophysiology, Diagnosis and Monitoring
ABSTRACT Iron overload is associated with significant health risks, underscoring the importance of understanding its pathophysiology as well as establishing accurate diagnostic and monitoring methods. Chronic iron overload is associated with either genetic disorders characterized by excessive iron accumulation (hereditary hemochromatosis), or is ...

Parenteral iron—Does it increase infection risk?
Abstract Background and Objectives Iron deficiency (ID) and iron deficiency anaemia (IDA) are prevalent conditions impacting various patient populations, both surgical and non‐surgical conditions. The advent of patient blood management (PBM) has promoted intravenous (IV) iron therapy as an alternative to oral iron and blood transfusions.

Hepcidin and Anemia: A Tight Relationship [PDF]
Hepcidin, the master regulator of systemic iron homeostasis, tightly influences erythrocyte production. High hepcidin levels block intestinal iron absorption and macrophage iron recycling, causing iron restricted erythropoiesis and anemia. Low hepcidin levels favor bone marrow iron supply for hemoglobin synthesis and red blood cells production ...

Hepcidin promotes oral ulcer healing via amphiregulin production in rats
Background/purpose: Hepcidin is an antimicrobial peptide that regulates iron metabolism. Recently, hepcidin was reported to promote wound healing. However, the mechanism underlying hepcidin signaling in the oral mucosa remains unclear.

Hypoxia and hypercapnia elicit overlapping but distinct skeletal muscle toxicities
Abstract figure legend Hypoxia and hypercapnia cause overlapping skeletal muscle phenotypes, including atrophy, change in myofibre metabolic profile and myogenic response to injury. Both signals operate via distinct cellular pathways. Abstract Skeletal muscle dysfunction is strongly associated with elevated mortality in acute and chronic pulmonary ...

ABSTRACT Background Transfusion‐related iron overload (TRIO) is a late effect of therapy impacting survivors of childhood cancer and hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT) who receive frequent packed red blood cell (pRBC) transfusions. Surprisingly, there are no accepted guidelines to assist providers in identifying and treating at‐risk ...

Regulators of hepcidin expression
Iron, an essential nutrient, is required for many biological processes but is also toxic in excess. The lack of a mechanism to excrete excess iron makes it crucial for the body to regulate the amount of iron absorbed from the diet. This regulation is mediated by the hepatic hormone hepcidin.
