Combinatorial effects of malaria season, iron deficiency, and inflammation determine plasma hepcidin concentration in African children.
Hepcidin is the master regulatory hormone that governs iron homeostasis and has a role in innate immunity. Although hepcidin has been studied extensively in model systems, there is less information on hepcidin regulation in global health contexts where iron deficiency (ID), anemia, and high infectio...
