TMPRSS6 Gene Polymorphism and Serum Hepcidin in Iron Deficiency Anemia

2018-10-01

Abstract excerpt

Background: Iron deficiency anemia (IDA) is a global health problem and common medical condition seen in everyday clinical practice. Hepcidin which is the key regulator of iron homeostasis, that down-regulates iron export by binding to ferroportin which is expressed on the surface of iron-releasing cells, leading to its degradation thus reducing plasma iron levels. Overexpression of hepcidin leads to iron deficien...
