1 | Hepcidin-induced reduction in iron content and PGC-1beta expression negatively regulates osteoclast differentiation to play a protective role in postmenopausal osteoporosis. | Iron | hepcidin antimicrobial peptide | Mus musculus |
2 | Hepcidin is a key regulator of iron homeostasis. | Iron | hepcidin antimicrobial peptide | Mus musculus |
3 | These data showed that hepcidin protected osteoporosis by reducing iron levels in bone tissue, and in conjunction with PGC-1beta, reduced ROS production and the number of mitochondria, thus inhibiting osteoclast differentiation and bone absorption. | Iron | hepcidin antimicrobial peptide | Mus musculus |
