Common Variants in the TMPRSS6 Gene Alter Hepcidin but not Plasma Iron in Response to Oral Iron in Healthy Gambian Adults: A Recall-by-Genotype Study
BACKGROUND: The role of genetic determinants in mediating iron status in Africans is not fully understood. Genome-wide association studies in non-African populations have revealed genetic variants in the transmembrane protease serine 6 gene (TMPRSS6) that are associated with the risk of anemia. OBJE...
