Abstract Liver fibrosis is a precursor of liver cirrhosis, which is associated with increased mortality. Though liver biopsy remains the gold standard for the diagnosis of fibrosis, noninvasive biochemical methods are cost-effective, practical and ar

Abstract Hepcidin is emerging as a new important factor in brain iron homeostasis. Studies suggest that there are two sources of hepcidin in the brain; one is local and the other comes from the circulation. Little is known about the molecular mediato

Abstract Background It has been shown that hepcidin and YKL-40 levels change in persons with insulin resistance in different circumstances. However, variations of the levels of these parameters through the stages of prediabetes and type 2 diabetes me

Objectives: Iron overload can cause or contribute to the pathogenesis of type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM), but how the major parameters of iron metabolism change in different settings of diabetes are still unclear. The aim of this study was to determi

An increasing amount of research has recently strengthened the case for the existence of iron dysmetabolism in prostate cancer. It is characterized with a wide array of differential expression of iron-related proteins compared to normal cells. These

Hepcidin is the major regulator of systemic iron metabolism, while the role of this peptide in the brain has just recently been elucidated. Studies suggest a dual role of hepcidin in neuronal iron load and inflammation. This is important since neuron

Recent data suggest that the importance of hepcidin goes beyond its classical role in controlling systemic iron metabolism. Local hepcidins are emerging as important peptides for organ homeostasis in the brain, heart, blood vessels, and in cancer as
