Reduced hepcidin expression enhances iron overload in patients with HbE/β-thalassemia: Α comparative cross-sectional study

Iron homeostasis is regulated by hepcidin (HEPC) that controls the dietary iron absorption and iron recycling. HEPC deficiency contributes to iron overload in β-thalassemia patients. The present study aimed to investigate the correlation between HEPC concentration and serum iron status among hemoglo...
