Popis: | Anemia is a common manifestation of chronic kidney disease (CKD). The pathogenesis of CKD-associated anemia is multifactorial. Our understanding of the molecular control of iron metabolism has improved dramatically because of the discovery of hepcidin and attempts to introduce new drugs to stimulate erythropoiesis or affect the hepcidin-ferroportin pathway have recently emerged. Areas covered: We examine the possible role of hepcidin in iron metabolism and regulation and the potential therapeutic options involving hepcidin and hepcidin-ferroportin axis in renal anemia treatment. We focus on therapeutic targeting of hepcidin, the hepcidin-ferroportin axis and key molecules such as anti-hepcidin antibodies, spigelmers, and anticalins. We also discuss compounds affecting the bone morphogenetic protein receptor [BMP/BMPR] complex and molecules that influence hepcidin, such as hypoxia-inducible factor 1 stabilizers. Expert opinion: Hepcidin is a key regulator of iron availability and is a potential future therapeutic target for managing anemia that is associated with CKD. There are potential risks and benefits associated with novel sophisticated therapies and there are several novel options on the horizon; however, clinical data are currently limited and need development. Inhibition of hepcidin via various pathways might be a viable adjunctive therapeutic option in other clinical situations. |
