Iron Regulation by Hepcidin
Iron regulation by hepcidin Ningning Zhao, … , An-Sheng Zhang, Caroline A. Enns J Clin Invest. 2013;123(6):2337-2343. https://doi.org/10.1172/JCI67225. Science in Medicine Hepcidin is a key hormone that is involved in the control of iron homeostasis in the body. Physiologically, hepcidin is controlled by iron stores, inflammation, hypoxia, and erythropoiesis. The regulation of hepcidin expression by iron is a complex process that requires the coordination of multiple proteins, including hemojuvelin, bone morphogenetic protein 6 (BMP6), hereditary hemochromatosis protein, transferrin receptor 2, matriptase-2, neogenin, BMP receptors, and transferrin. Misregulation of hepcidin is found in many disease states, such as the anemia of chronic disease, iron refractory iron deficiency anemia, cancer, hereditary hemochromatosis, and ineffective erythropoiesis, such as β- thalassemia. Thus, the regulation of hepcidin is the subject of interest for the amelioration of the detrimental effects of either iron deficiency or overload.

Urinary Pi is freely filtered at the shown an association between genetic kidney glomerulus and is reabsorbed in the renal tubule by the action of the apical polymorphisms in Xpr1 and primary fa- sodium-dependent phosphate transporters, NaPi-IIa/NaPi-IIc/Pit2. However, the milial brain calcification disorder.5 How- molecular identity of the protein(s) participating in the basolateral Pi efflux remains ever, the role of XPR1 in the maintenance unknown.

Hepcidin Is Not a Marker of Chronic Inflammation in Atherosclerosis Hepcidin Aterosklerozda Kronik Inflamasyonun Bir Göstergesi De¤Ildir
Original Investigation Orijinal Araflt›rma 239 Hepcidin is not a marker of chronic inflammation in atherosclerosis Hepcidin aterosklerozda kronik inflamasyonun bir göstergesi de¤ildir Aytekin O¤uz, Mehmet Uzunlulu, Nezih Hekim* Department of Internal Medicine, Göztepe Training and Research Hospital, ‹stanbul, Turkey *Pakize Tarz› Laboratory, ‹stanbul, Turkey ABSTRACT Objective: To investigate the relationship between atherosclerosis, an inflammatory disease and hepcidin which is reported as an indi- cator of inflammation Methods: A total of 75 subjects between 40 and 70 years of age were included in the study. The patient group consisted of 40 stable pa- tients who had previously experienced an atherosclerotic event (18 women, 22 men; mean age 56.4±7.1 years). There were two control groups. The first control group consisted of 19 healthy subjects (11 women, 8 men; mean age 52.6± 7.4 years), while the second group inc- luded 16 patients (11 women, 5 men; mean age 56.5±9.3 years) with rheumatoid arthritis and anemia (diseased control group). Hepcidin measurement was performed using Hepcidin Prohormone ELISA (Solid Phase Enzyme-Linked Immunosorbent Assay) test kit. Results: Mean serum hepcidin levels were 243.2±48.8 ng/ml, 374.5±86.4 ng/ml, and 234±59.9 ng/ml in the patient group, in diseased cont- rols, and in healthy controls, respectively. Hepcidin levels were higher in diseased controls compared to the patient group and healthy controls (p=0.001). There were no significant differences between the patient group and healthy controls. Conclusion: These findings did not support the hypothesis that hepcidin levels could be increased in atherosclerotic cardiovascular di- seases as a marker of chronic inflammation. -

Mito- chondria must import iron to form iron–sulfur clusters and heme, and to incorporate these cofactors along with iron ions into mitochondrial proteins that support essential functions, including cellular respiration. In turn, mitochondria supply the cell with heme and enable the biogenesis of cytosolic and nuclear proteins containing iron–sulfur clusters. Impairment in cellular or mitochondrial iron homeostasis is deleterious and can result in numerous human diseases. Due to its reactivity, iron is stored and trafficked through the body, intracellularly, and within mitochondria via carefully orchestrated processes. Here, we focus on describing the processes of and components involved in mitochondrial iron trafficking and storage, as well as mitochondrial iron–sulfur cluster biogenesis and heme biosynthesis. Recent findings and the most pressing topics for future research are highlighted.

Hepcidin Therapeutics

Genetic defects in iron signaling to hepcidin lead to “hepcidinopathies” ranging from hereditary hemochromatosis to iron-refractory iron deficiency anemia, which are disorders caused by hepcidin deficiency or excess, respectively. Moreover, dysregulation of hepcidin is a pathogenic cofactor in iron-loading anemias with ineffective erythropoiesis and in anemia of inflammation. Experiments with preclinical animal models provided evidence that restoration of appropriate hepcidin levels can be used for the treatment of these conditions. This fueled the rapidly growing field of hepcidin therapeutics. Several hepcidin agonists and antagonists, as well as inducers and inhibitors of hepcidin expression have been identified to date. Some of them were further developed and are currently being evaluated in clinical trials. This review summarizes the state of the art. Keywords: iron metabolism; hepcidin; ferroportin; hemochromatosis; anemia 1. Systemic Iron Homeostasis Iron is an essential constituent of cells and organisms and participates in vital biochemical activities, such as DNA synthesis, oxygen transfer, and energy metabolism. The biological functions of iron are based on its capacity to interact with proteins and on its propensity to switch between the ferrous (Fe2+) and ferric (Fe3+) oxidation states. -

Hasan3, Yan Zhang1,4, Javier Seravalli2, Jie Lin4,5, Andrei Avanesov1, Svetlana Lutsenko3 & Vadim N. Gladyshev1 Trace elements are essential for human metabolism and dysregulation of their homoeostasis is associated with numerous disorders. Here we characterize mechanisms that regulate trace elements in human cells by designing and performing a genome-wide high-throughput siRNA/ionomics screen, and examining top hits in cellular and biochemical assays. The screen reveals high stability of the ionomes, especially the zinc ionome, and yields known regulators and novel candidates. We further uncover fundamental differences in the regulation of different trace elements. Specifically, selenium levels are controlled through the selenocysteine machinery and expression of abundant selenoproteins; copper balance is affected by lipid metabolism and requires machinery involved in protein trafficking and post-translational modifications; and the iron levels are influenced by iron import and expression of the iron/haeme-containing enzymes. Our approach can be applied to a variety of disease models and/or nutritional conditions, and the generated data set opens new directions for studies of human trace element metabolism. 1 Genetics Division, Department of Medicine, Brigham and Women’s Hospital and Harvard Medical School, Boston, Massachusetts 02115, USA. 2 Department of Biochemistry, University of Nebraska-Lincoln, Lincoln, Nebraska 68588, USA. 3 Department of Physiology, Johns Hopkins University, Baltimore, Maryland 21205, USA. 4 Key Laboratory of Nutrition and Metabolism, Institute for Nutritional Sciences, Shanghai Institutes for Biological Sciences, Chinese Academy of Sciences, University of Chinese Academy of Sciences, Shanghai 200031, China. -
