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