Phytoestrogens modulate hepcidin expression by Nrf2: Implications for dietary control of iron absorption

Hepcidin is a liver-derived antimicrobial peptide that regulates iron absorption and is also an integral part of the acute phase response. In a previous report, we found evidence that this peptide could also be induced by toxic heavy metals and xenobiotics, thus broadening its teleological role as a...
