HEPCIDIN A polypeptide produced by the liver
The major hormonal regulator of
iron homeostasis It inhibits iron release from macrophages, intestinal
epithelial cells & from placental syncytiotrophoblasts
by accelerating degradation of ferroportin mRNA Iron deficiency , hypoxia & ineffective erythropoiesis
inhibits hepcidin production
iron release from pre-mentioned cells As acute phase protein,
hepcidin production is induced by inflammation via IL-6

1/3 of ACD are microcytic hypochromic
Causes of microcytic hypochromic anemias
The 1st step in the evaluation of microcytic anemia is to rule out IDA,HOW?
