Role of the erythroid hormone erythroferrone in the regulation of iron homeostasis
The erythroid hormone erythroferrone (ERFE) plays a major role in iron metabolism. It acts to facilitate the recovery from anemia (consecutive to hemorrage, inflammation, malaria…) but it also causes iron overload in thalassemia. ERFE is a promising target for the treatment of different forms of anemia. However, nothing is known about the ERFE mechanism or its potential contribution to different pathologies, which is the subject of my research program.
