| 1 | The iron regulatory peptide hepcidin is expressed in the heart and regulated by hypoxia and inflammation. | Iron | hepcidin antimicrobial peptide | Rattus norvegicus |
| 2 | The peptide hormone hepcidin plays a central role in iron homeostasis. | Iron | hepcidin antimicrobial peptide | Rattus norvegicus |
| 3 | Although it has been shown that iron plays a key pathophysiological role in cardiac diseases, including iron-overload cardiomyopathy, myocardial ischemia-reperfusion injury, and atherosclerosis, very little is known about the putative expression and the role of hepcidin in the heart. | Iron | hepcidin antimicrobial peptide | Rattus norvegicus |
