Hepcidin is a peptide hormone mainly produced in the liver. Hepcidin expression is induced by iron loading and interleukin-6. Serum and urine hepcidin levels can be measured by using either mass spectrometry-based assays or competitive ELISA. In general, serum hepcidin levels are well-correlated with serum ferritin and CRP levels, and inversely correlated with the severity of anemia. In patients with hereditary hemochromatosis, congenital dyserythropoietic anemia type 1, myelodysplastic anemia RARS, and β-thalassemia major, serum hepcidin levels are relatively low ; and these low serum hepcidin levels are associated with systemic iron overload commonly observed in these diseases. Hepcidin assays are also useful in the differential diagnosis of iron deficiency anemia and anemia of chronic disease.
