Bone Morphogenetic Proteins 2, 4, and 9 Stimulate Murine Hepcidin 1 Expression Independently of Hfe, Transferrin Receptor 2 (Tfr2), and IL-6

Recently, it has been suggested that hepcidin, a peptide involved in iron homeostasis, is regulated by bone morphogenetic proteins (BMPs), apparently by binding to hemojuvelin (Hjv) as a coreceptor and signaling through Smad4. We investigate the role of Hfe, Tfr2 (transferrin receptor 2), and IL-6 i...
