Pursuing Orally Bioavailable Hepcidin Analogues via Cyclic N-Methylated Mini-Hepcidins
The peptide hormone hepcidin is one of the key regulators of iron absorption, plasma iron levels, and tissue iron distribution. Hepcidin functions by binding to and inducing the internalisation and subsequent lysosomal degradation of ferroportin, which reduces both iron absorption in the gut and exp...
