1 Iron metabolism is tightly linked to infectious and inflammatory signals through hepcidin synthesis. Iron hepcidin antimicrobial peptide Homo sapiens
2 The aim of this study is to characterize the hepcidin and erythroid regulators (growth differentiation factor 15 (GDF-15) and erythroferrone (ERFE)) by measuring concentrations in plasma in context of COVID-19 disease.We performed a single-center observational study of patients with COVID-19 to evaluate concentrations of main regulatory proteins involved in iron homeostasis, namely: hepcidin, ERFE and GDF-15. Iron hepcidin antimicrobial peptide Homo sapiens
