Hypoxia induced downregulation of hepcidin is mediated by platelet derived growth factor BB
Open accessAbstract
OBJECTIVE: Hypoxia affects body iron homeostasis; however, the underlying mechanisms are incompletely understood. DESIGN: Using a standardised hypoxia chamber, 23 healthy volunteers were subjected to hypoxic conditions, equivalent to an altitude of 5600 m, for 6 h. Subsequent experiments were performed in C57BL/6 mice, CREB-H knockout mice, primary hepatocytes and HepG2 cells. RESULTS: Exposure of subjects to hypoxia resulted in a significant decrease of serum levels of the master regulator of iron homeostasis hepcidin and elevated concentrations of platelet derived growth factor (PDGF)-BB. Using correlation analysis, we identified PDGF-BB to be associated with hypoxia mediated hepcidin repression in humans. We then exposed mice to hypoxia using a standardised chamber and observed downregulation of hepatic hepcidin mRNA expression that was paralleled by elevated serum PDGF-BB protein concentrations and higher serum iron levels as compared with mice housed under normoxic conditions. PDGF-BB treatment in vitro and in vivo resulted in suppression of both steady state and BMP6 inducible hepcidin expression. Mechanistically, PDGF-BB inhibits hepcidin transcription by downregulating the protein expression of the transcription factors CREB and CREB-H, and pharmacological blockade or genetic ablation of these pathways abrogated the effects of PDGF-BB toward hepcidin expression. CONCLUSIONS: Hypoxia decreases hepatic hepcidin expression by a novel regulatory pathway exerted via PDGF-BB, leading to increased availability of circulating iron that can be used for erythropoiesis.

Hypoxia-induced proteins HIF-1 or PDGF-BB reduce hepcidin expression, enhancing iron delivery for erythropoiesis.
“and several proteins induced by hypoxia such as hypoxia inducible factor-1 (HIF-1) or platelet derived growth factor BB (PDGF-BB) reduce hepcidin expression, thereby enhancing iron delivery for erythropoiesis (Peyssonnaux et al., 2007; Sonnweber et al., 2014).”

Hepcidin expression is repressed by hypoferremia, anemia, tissue hypoxia, and hormones such as GDF15, erythroferrone, PDGF-BB, and testosterone.
“and repressed in response to: (i) hypoferremia, that is, lower than normal levels of circulating Fe, (ii) anemia, (iii) tissue hypoxia, and (iv) hormones, for example, growth and differentiation factors 15, erythroferrone, platelet-derived growth factor-BB (PDGF-BB) and testosterone [62][63][64][65].”

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
