Distinct patterns of hepcidin and iron regulation during HIV-1, HBV, and HCV infections.

Distinct patterns of hepcidin and iron regulation during HIV-1, HBV, and HCV infections.

During HIV type-1 (HIV-1), hepatitis C virus (HCV), and hepatitis B virus (HBV) infections, altered iron balance correlates with morbidity. The liver-produced hormone hepcidin dictates systemic iron homeostasis. We measured hepcidin, iron parameters, cytokines, and inflammatory markers in three coho...
